    So much poor decision making, with FVV Rockets would easily be up 7+...

    Greens ability to break down the defense has really improved.

    This is winnable. Which is wild on a b2b with two really good teams and depleted.

    We can win this Rox just need to stop shooting mid range and settling for shots. Go hard at the rim play physical.

    Whitmore is literally Michael Beasley. Just wants to score and not want to pass.

    That doesnt make that much of a difference if were being real. It's nice but it doesnt negate the back to back

    If we can rein in Derrick Brooks and get him not to take a bad shot or force things in the 4th, this game can be stolen/won.

    If Jalen didn't get into foul trouble in the second quarter, I think we might've had a chance to have the lead. As is, the Rockets are doing ok, just gotta play well to finish the game!

    Asking anyone to neutralize Sabonis is a big ask and from what I’m seeing, the Kings do a great job having their perimeter players pulling Sabonis’ defender away with their drives.

    Can't really ask for more.... Considering how bad they have played and good Kings have played with no FVV... Close game is pretty good....

    I knew he was gonna shoot, as soon as he got the ball. I'm like he ain't passing

    Diontae Johnson just got cut from the Texans for having Cam's mindset.
