    Again we've been the worst team in the league for 2 seasons and still no #1 pick.

    Lol you could tell that they underestimated the Spurs and hopefully learned a lesson last night.

    Interesting observation yesterday when the game ended. Jabari was PISSED we lost. Jalen was PISSED as well. Silas comes in smiling and giggling like a school girl to feel up Popovich. Absolute worst body language from a coach I have ever seen. Dude is normalizing losing

    The Spurs were without 3 of their regulars. The Rockets were fully healthy. All signs for a game the Rockets SHOULD have won. However if you watched the game you can see that Pop out coached Silas. If you can't see that then I don't know what else to tell you.

    Jabari+Tari+Alpi are the ones who don't like losing. The others don't care. I posted a lot about losing culture but no one cares. Tanking is a crime, it is against sport culture. Silas's smiles after losses is evil, satanic.Reminds me George Friedman. A laughter without reason.

    The Rockets are tanking smartly. Beating or being competitive with the elite teams ( Philly, Warriors, Suns and Mavs) and losing to the teams that are a threat to the chase for the French dude.


    Just like the Texans are on the Bryce Young chase the Rockets are on a smart tank mode

    You don't tank exclusively for the number one pick. You tank to draft a great player, which is easier with a top five pick than a middle round pick.

    This would be way more accurate if your data took in consideration how that Nets team didn't really have their big 3 healthy for their short stint playoff run

    Not saying they would have won it all but losing two of your big three is a recipe to coming up short in a series against a healthier big 3

    Just ask Bron in 15' Finals how that worked out, or even for Harden when CP3 got hurt in that Warriors series

    Injury data matters also
