    The Rockets beating the Celtics on the road on a day when neither Jalen or Sengun could score is legendary stuff. Shoutout to Dillon for shooting the lights out. And give all praise to God for AMEN FKING THOMPSON!

    First time posting in a GARM game thread - probably the entire GARM, no less - in over a decade, but I'd be remiss if I didn't pop in to acknowledge how grateful I am for this team making hoops fun to watch again.

    What a finish!
    Go Rox!!!

    Yes Sir Roxs always play hard but offensively he had an off night and so did Jalen. Good teams find ways to win even when their stars have off nights. That was my point !!!!

    People just don't understand the gravity Alpi draws that opens up our offense. They all just want him to have 20 plus points and 20 rebounds. Unrealistic expectations. People who say his defense was bad today I really don't know what they are watching. He was everywhere switching onto every player. Dude was soo tired looked like he was gonna die for last 3 minutes and you wonder why he couldn't score on Jrue. Literally could barely stand up.

    That's the trade off to have him play good defense and chasing everyone around. He won't have the same burst on offense. There is a reason Harden took plays off on defense.

    Alpi’s 9 assists can’t be overlooked, he wasn’t great but he never quit hustling. Big time win.

    Defense was shifting to Jalen Green, 7 footer Kornet to Jalen Green Great Job by Amen Thompson going for the open shot.

    Wow, double WOW!! We beat defending champs in their house and DB is our leading scorer--insane!

    Did Amen become "him" tonight? Dude was clutch and took the game winner. He's like a human Flash, he's everywhere. Ask Holiday.

    @PeterKingX 100% agree, best win of the season!!!

    Post game presser. Reporter said to Joe who’s your daddy and Joe responded I want to coach like Ime when I grow up.



    might be fake news :p

    but it’s still real
