    Teams are attacking wherever Adams is on almost every possession. If you get him anywhere near a spot where he has to move his feet he's absolute toast.

    The offense is...well..not great.

    This style is favoring us. We just need Alpi or JG to get going.

    Same point total for our last game. Another defensive slugfest. Alpi needs to clean it up.

    The rims do sound pretty tight every time the ball hits

    We can never out shoot or outoffense OKC. Thats why the uglier the game is the better it is for us. Drag OKC to our level and then we can win.

    I can't help but laugh at them showing Jalen Green and SGA on the same screen like they're equal

    In the 1st quarter, both teams were very tight on offense and focused on defense. Alpi has to screw his head on and be stronger with the ball. 3 TOs in just 6 mins is not acceptable. He has to stop those soft passes and remember who the opponent is.

    This game is going to open up eventually and the Rockets will have to match OKC's scoring. SGA going 1/8 won't continue.
