    ALP had a good look to tie up the game but they we letting a LOT of contact go at the rim today for both sides. Good loss, review the tape, and on to the last one of the season

    End of the season Rockets Management hands coach Silas a fat check.

    Silas "What's this for?"

    Mgmt "For doing a great job tanking?"

    Silas "Wait, we were tanking? I really coach like that!"

    The whole game changed when Siakam complained to the refs, after that...

    Good game. Siakam should have had 48 fouls.

    I know you guys want to lose but at some point this team has to figure out how to win. And continous losing doesn't get you there.

    This would have been a big confidence booster going into next yr.

    Not much to complain about. We got L, everyone seemed to play alright aside from Green from an offensive stand point.

    awful game from Green, he had a nice block but man straight up disappear. Whether it's cause of the strategy or how aggressive the Raptors defense was on him. not that good.
    He did look alright on defense.

    Turnovers too many turnovers down the stretch.

    Complaints about KPJ lack of playmaking abilities are valid.

    KPJ can b the pg if he keeps up this type of shooting performance, but anyone who watch the game honestly can't defend how apparent his lack of play making ability hinder the team down the stretch.

    Still quite impressive to barely lose to the raptors while sitting out our vets.

    He also had a 3-13 game before his hot streak. Tonight was better than that game because he played good D even though he didn’t shoot well and turned the ball over a lot.

    It won’t get better. The NBA could be pure, consistent and fair. Instead they’re Pure shiiit.

    The thing about Green is that he doesn’t force shots, and while that’s great for team basketball, I think sometimes you need to chuck a little bit to try to get yourself going. But he’s not that kind of player, which is what it is. Don’t see many 5-21 nights in his future, for better or for worse

    Get better at inbounding and execution, I knew Sengun's position was not the best, would rather shoot a distant 3.

    Just realised that with the early start against Atlanta that this game was the last game I'll watch live this season.

    It's been real, game thread legends, thanks for making tank season fun!

    The loss might sting now, but might be good for tankathon. Silas says....
