    A solid game against a pretty damn good defense! The Jalen of old would have never bounced back so quickly

    A 6.5 dog tonight. Cavs wanted this game bad by Shaq-fouling. Now a 36-9 Cavs shot 51% and still lost (at home).

    This was a big test man. Rockets passed it with flying colors. You know the Cavs wanted to hand it to these Rockets. They tied it up after being down 19. But the Rockets held back arguably the best team in the league during clutch time. We haven't seen wins like this since 2018.

    Ime needs to be the coach the next 10 years at least. Players vibe off his energy and exert that tough never give up mentality kn the court.

    You can really see that Ime loves to play Amen. Throughout the game the Rockets feel significantly weaker both offensively and defensively without Amen in the game. I can see Amen closing out every game from here on out if he doesn't take Dillon's spot.

    He didn't have a bad game he played like 8 minutes.....was 1 for 2, and wasn't on the bench in the 2nd half.

    Ime was definitely the right coach for where this franchise was at and currently.

    However, until we see how makes adjustments in the playoff, it is too early to say he the complete answer.

    He has shown glimpses that he could be it, but just as many questionable rotations, offensive sets, and time out/game flow management issues.

    The Rockets had enough offense in this game. The issue was on defense.

    Little midget Garland had a career game and it still wasn’t enough. Oh how sweet it is.
