    That missing assist makes this game worthless.

    Hopefully upon review, the statisticians will find one they missed so we can feel good about tonight.

    OKC fans are online blaming the refs…

    Dillon really stepped up tonight. Heck, it’s a miracle he didn’t foul out, considering how one-sided the refs were.

    Got the tree today, lights on and some decorating. Set the lights to red and white for the Rockets…for superstitious purposes. Sweet win tonight!

    The over top sarcasm on the best player is lame and jumped the whale 3 weeks ago.

    It was cool to see FVV say he is here for leadership as the young kids need it. :pointed at Sengun for yelling MFer and drenching him with water"

    He did look bad. OKC's defense had a lot to do with it.

    What's encouraging was even though his bag of tricks wasn't working, he was still very effective on the floor. Assuming the Rockets make the playoffs, this is the kind of defense he will have to deal with. He certainly passed the test tonight.

    It’s the intangibles! AKA the stuff that don’t show up on the Morey statistics.

    This team is the Charizard to the Scola/Brooks/Landry team's Charmander.

    Gigantic scratch/cut across the back of Brooks neck in this video...look after ref announces that they are reviewing play....looks like someone ran a switchblade and went all the way across the back of his lower neck...around 1:53 mark

    Great win. Likely to see them again in the playoffs. It will be interesting to see how they play with Chet and Hartenstein in the lineup along with Caruso coming back. They’re a juggernaut but our guys are ready for battle

    Superstitious? That tree looks supernatural. I’d almost be expecting a portal to open up and a past relative to appear and save the family :eek:

    SGA might be the toughest 1-on-1 cover in the league, all things considered. Amen even had problems staying in front of him. Dude is a 6'6" perimeter player with a career 50% FG -- that's Jordan-type things.

    Respect to Shai.

    Respect to this Rockets dub. They damn sure needed it with Holmgren out and playing at home.

    That would be phenomenal.

    If for nothing else, it meant the Rockets SG could actually shoot the ball.
