Ime Udoka reacts to Rockets shocking late collapse in Brooklyn 2/4/2025

Tough one Udoker we get them next time.

 

This one hurts…

Feels like like All Star break can't come soon enough for the team.

We've been winning a lot of close games up to this point and generally playing over skies so it was bound to regress.

 

Ime you keep making same mistakes putting same folks out who continue to give up last second looks!

 

I just can't with this clown.

 

God forbid ime takes accountability for any loss

 

At least Ime tells the truth and doesn’t sugarcoat ****

i would say the all star break couldnt come soon enough but it seems like its already here for the young rox

 

"when you play only half of one quarter you don't really deserve to win anyway"

BURN

 

There are many ways we can easily win the game.

Unfortunately Ime did nothing.

 

If he was telling the truth, he'd be accepting blame for his stupid decisions blowing the game. He's always got shade for everyone else, but he'll never be accountable for his own screw ups.

 

They need as many vets as they can get. The young fellas still have no clue how to close out games — rushed shots, turnovers, missed FTs. It’s hard to watch sometimes.

 

He is exactly like Poppovich. He takes these moments to throw this young team to the wolves. I understand it. I'm just upset that this young team won't capitalize. This team should not look so different at the end of games without Fred. That's what he's trying to instill in them. Just one favor though, don't ever put Tate out there ever again.

 

They need better vets. The two we have with a role are not closers and sometimes play as dumb as the youngsters. We have two guys making 65m that wouldn’t start for a contender. They would be great bench guys at about 20m each

 

Ime developed a very bad habit of subbing out Sengun almost every game at the final possessions for "defensive purposes".
Sengun almost delivered Ime a win. And Ime got what he deserved.

9.1 Jalen Green enters the game for Alperen Sengun 97 93
9.1 Jae'Sean Tate enters the game for Steven Adams 97 93
8.0 Keon Johnson makes 28-foot three point jumper (Tosan Evbuomwan assists) 97 96
3.1 Amen Thompson bad pass (Tosan Evbuomwan steals) 97 96
3.1 D'Angelo Russell makes 28-foot three point jumper (Tosan Evbuomwan assists) 97 99
3.1 Rockets Full timeout 97 99
3.1 Tyrese Martin enters the game for D'Angelo Russell 97 99
3.1 Alperen Sengun enters the game for Aaron Holiday 97 99

 

To be fair Ime didn’t tell Amen to do the dumbest turnover known to mankind. Ime didn’t tell Jalen to jack up and brick a 3 with plenty of time on the clock. Ime didn’t tell Sengun to shoot 8-14 from the free throw line.

 

The Rockets last 3 games have been baffling. A lot of hesitation, missed opportunities, sloppy passing, and not making an effort on defense giving them easy paint points. Really frustrating to watch

But what bothers me most is the hesitation when these guys have a wide open 3. Multiple times players hesitate then try to drive. Eason Cam and Reed all do this opting to drive into a stacked paint area instead of pulling the trigger.

 

shocking collapse? on the contrary this team has established collapses and scoring droughts as the expected norm. udoka was brought in to fix the culture, which he’s done admirably. problem now is he doesn’t know X ‘n O’s from tic tac toe’s

 

Did this ******* really just blame Amen for not calling the timeout? Why didn't you call the timeout, jackass?!?

 

If he called a fuking timeout when we lead 1 pts, we would get an easy win now.
