    All of our guys are not hitting at a high efficiency, but the game is close.

    Screw having a superstar right now, as long as our boys all hit the important ones down the stretch we can win this.

    I keep telling myself that we are ahead of schedule but damnit. You never know when we’ll have a team this good and healthy.

    its gonna suck losing this game

    Can the NBA stop making Jalen the trademark of the team. He's on the bench for a reason.

    I don't blame him .. he gets clobbered and they don't call anything. That's smart to kick out. Shooters have to hit those shots

    Ime should have given Holiday some minutes since he can actually score the ball, but he will likely stick with his limited rotation.

    He should have went up to score. He's mentally not in the game right now. He needs to relax and go to work not pass right under the basket

    Sengun was also fouled on the floor. SGA might be worse than Harden at ref baiting.

    The general notion was that OKC had stars and we didn't. Pretty much whats been going on.

    Sengun and Green both afraid out there. Van Vleet and horrible shot selection is an issue. Need to put in Holiday, Eason, Smith, Thompson, and Brooks. Best team to go all out in the 4th.

    It's hilarious how this is a bad game from alpi and rightfully being called out for it.

    Meanwhile people are so used to this utter putrid performance from Jalen it doesn't even warrant comments anymore because it happens too god damn often.

    Ironic tilman went on record commenting about the perceived worst contract in the league with Chris Paul. And yet in reality he signed off on the worst contract in the league this offseason.

    Our two stars are just too mentally soft. Both of them have checked out of the game in more ways than one.

    The good thing is the 4th quarter doesn't have to be like the 3rd.

    Who will step up for the Houston Rockets?

    Thanks for the suggestion Popeyes, to replace our Christmas dinner with a Popeyes holiday box, but I don’t think my family is ready to kill themselves yet

    This game feels like a slow death because our offense is so dogshit.
