    Still SO disappointed after the Pels loss.

    Feels like the season projection has gone from WC contender to WC playoff potential.

    A nice win against the Nugs might be necessary

    I expect nothing less than desperation from the opening tip to the final buzzer. Anything less is a huge disappointment.

    If the Rockets cannot beat the Nuggets when both Aaron Gordon and Christian Braun are out, they just probably cannot beat this team that nobody wants to play. Cam Johnson is starting to find his way and you can argue Tim Hardaway Jr. is having a career year at age 33.

    Have to come out punching from the start. Considering Ime's a "defensive" coach, maybe start playing some ****ing defense?!

    This is what I'm talking about. Alpi needs to give up the damn ball to KD at the end of games. He has no business going for the final shot. I don't care if KD is double-teamed. You get him the damn ball.

    Back-to-back losses will be tough, but we'll recover.
