    Smart was tunnelling Sengun and the commentators hate the call because they love LA

    Jabari and KD are the only ones doing anything.

    Lakers just leaving Tate open LOL

    Amen Tate and Sengun can all be left completely alone at the 3 point line.

    Why did Tate run down the court like he swished that 3? Should've immediately gone for the rebound. Dumbasssss

    Ironically, Jabari appears to be much more dialed in to try to beat the Lakers compared to Alpi

    I actually loved the way he played last game with the starters. He was letting it fly and moving the ball well. I didn't even care that he shot poorly because they will fall eventually. Ofc he is buried again

    As someone in this thread called out...defenses are able to not only double KD on some plays...BUT ALSO Alpi lol, because everyone is mostly standing around.

    The Rockets do run actions, they just aren't good at them.

    Tate shouldn't take threes and Jabari takes the worst off balanced shots

    Rockets should just throw up a 3 every single possession. Just to see what happens
