    I don't think the game goes the same way if we have all 5 starters.

    30 freaking FTs to 15 FTs, guess who won?!?!?!?!?!? NBA rigging trades and games. Guess which dude shot 1 for 8. VanVleet disease.

    Refs were letting physical play, Ine should have realized JG was bad for this game as the refs dont call his drives.

    Cam despite his bad decisions was hitting it from 3 he and Holiday should have been in the game instead of JG.

    Rockets defense has gone by the wayside.

    Tate's -24 and Jalen's -21 were impressive.

    Overall, I think we played well enough to win this one--injuries hurt, refs were dogsh*t, some real home cooking for the Knicks, and Amen blew our opportunity late--but can't hold it against him too much when he was our best player tonight otherwise and we wouldn't have even been in it without him.

    ASB can't come soon enough. Need all our guys healthy.

    Yeah, it pissed me off. That was with 5 turnovers already too, and then he gets another. I feel bad for Cam. Jalen gets the special treatment even when playing like crap.

    Brunson is hitting shots in between his fouls. He actually tries to play basketball, Jalen Green literally hit one layup that entire quarter and the rest of it was running and flailing into people. These two are not the same and the same goes for SGA who also hits clutch shots and generates his own offense.

    Serious question...Jock's arse is nailed to the bench all year ...what is wrong with him tonight ? Alpi...a contusion ? Basketball is becoming a more and more soft game.

    A loss friggin sucks. Especially after we were in it all game. However it stings a little less knowing we were without 2 (not even including Jabari) starters.

    When fully healthy I’ll take the Rockets vs anybody.

    All valid, Green sucked. But two things can be true.

    Probably about to be traded and they don't want him getting hurt and messing it up.

    Someone should ask Ime if there was any "defensive lapses" in that 4th quarter when they gave up 46....and why none of them got benched for it.
