    Glad the Rockets came back and made it competitive. That's something.

    I wish he was anything close to Rashard.

    Jabari Smith Jr is the weakest link.

    Jalen finally started driving to the rim like he should be doing all game long because it’s easy work

    **** that block. Bari makes regular shots that aren't put backs and the rockets are a contender. dude is open all the time. There is no way his shot should be so flat at 7'0

    He was slapped in the jaw. The only way to get a call these days is to embellish

    A tough loss. We dug ourselves a huge hole, 22 down, and fought back to damn near pull it out. This must be one of those “learning experiences.” Ouch.

    I am guessing he just assumed they fouled him before the gather. But he did have time.

    Same here. Lewis was a solid role player. I thought Jabari could have been that

    Alpe played like this was his first game ever. I'm a big fan but he deserved to sit, he was so bad on both ends

    Not really, at least not one they'd EVER call. He tried to draw it though, should have just tried to take a straight up shot, he had the time to take a much better shot than he went with.

    Either way, the loss isn't on him. He was basically the only bright spot tonight.

    Maybe he lost balance from the foul?

    I'm a little tired of moral victories against lousy teams. Being up 18 against the Hornets is nice, but not when you blow the lead. Coming back and having a chance to win in San Antonio is fine, but you still lost and you spotted them a lead of over 20.

    Ime's gonna have to shake up these lineups because the combinations he's been going with are not working.

    Package Jabari Smith Jr and maybe FVV for something decent.

    I am a generational Jalen Green hater but I absolutely loved what I saw tonight, can’t deny what my eyes can see

    Easy to drive to rim when Sengun not clogging the lane… it’s the pick your poison

    Agonizing. Shitty play and came back only to fumble the takeover. Refereeing is just donkey balls.

    At least I can hate Chris Paul again.
