    lol the jig is up.

    A team full of non shooters. This team gets swept in a seven game series in the playoffs when teams lock in, eliminating fast break and making it a half court game.

    If stone can’t see this he really is delusional

    Tate just too small and he’s limited on range - we don’t have the players to bust the zone if Ime not going to put Adams at top and actually force some player movement to get Cam / Amen on backcuts

    we are looking really small vs Brooklyn - they have a lot of long athletic players

    Russell
    Simmons
    Clayxon
    Johnson
    Williams

    they just switching PG-SF on JG and guarding Amen and Adams/Jock 1 on 1

    I don't know where that weird hostility came from, I just stated my opinion on who the current best player is on the Rockets. Stats and NBA coaches agree. I'm not the outlier here.

    Like FFS Ime they're just daring you to go 4-out with the starters and you're being stubborn about it. Can't have both Adams and Amen on the court together when they're trolling us with the zone, maybe give it a rest and come back to it in the 4th. I know Adams is having a great game but you have to make a choice right now and first bust their strategy of packing the paint this stubbornly.

    Could use some juice from Whitmore tonight too. We need 3's. Shouldn't be passing up semi-open 3's for contested 2's.

    Hard when you're missing starting PF and C but we can do this.

    Don't these guys wanna tank? Damn.

    It's cool how so many people **** on Sengun for not being a rim protector but when he's out our opponents just feast on points in the paint.

    Cool cool cool cool cool

    Yup. Short lived playoff run. And in fact probably a short lived run as the #2 seed.

    getting embarrassed by a 15 win team like they’re good enough offensively to “flip a switch”

    I am not happy and i love Amen very much. I hate Alpi haters. For 3 years they are trying to find a reason to underestimate Alpi

    No sh&t dumbass. I was responding to atw saying we are losing because Amen is having a bad game. Sengun may have saved the day but he has had bad games as well and Amen has saved the day. Also the game ain’t over yet, so f$ck off.

    pretty much. this team has done nothing to act like they're above competing against lesser teams. they were the lesser team for like 4 straight years. now they got an ego cause the national media acknowledged their existence. people think development and success is linear too. look at the kings this year, that can easily be us next season.
