    Amen should’ve passed it out to Okogie

    Rockets guys are not efficient rim finishers but look off open corner 3 guys quite often

    Spurs consistently beat up OKC they are the other true contender in the West. Rockets need to catch up.

    No because you can jump out of bounds in the air to save the ball going out.

    Bone head move by Amen right there, gave perfect opportunity to AR but I guess he was way too wide open

    Damn Amen that was an awful shot. Imagine if Reeves had made that 3 after that…

    The heel was over the restricted line though. The restricted area isn't like the sidelines, you can't hover over it. If you are over it you are in it. The assholes weren't following the rules with that challenge call

    Luka b*tches at the refs every other possession on both ends…it’s literally nonstop the entire game

    as desperation starts to set in, his fattass is gonna start waddling into defenders for fouls…I hope the refs don’t fall for it

    Josh wide open for 3 and Amen throws a boulder off the glass instead

    Especially last second shot to close the quarter. refs ain't call a foul. Not against the Lakers in LA.

    This is fools gold … this team needs to change … Thompson is definitely not a point guard.. we should be up by 20 with how bad lakers have played… everything is just so hard / iso type plays .. not sure what ime is running but without the defense intensity this team use to have .. not sure how this lead is sustained

    You take the bad with the good. FVV Jalen Dillon Tari these guys are prone to mistakes and being boneheads but they come out with tons of effort and it infects the team. Thats why they over achieved last year and are underachieving this year.

    It's a matter of when not if the Lakers will roar back and take the lead

    KD was talking to Amen as they walked to the locker room. He could have well been pointing this out.

    Yeah we are 100% relying on talent right now. Virtually no offensive execution other than AAU ball and isos.
