    How was that not a foul on FVV on that 3?

    And absolutely not, the hell that wasn’t a flagrant at all on FVV on the other end either.

    This stuff that makes me hold back tears.

    Jalen seeing Alpi feel a bit down being benched and Jalen knowing that feeling and just embracing Alpi and saying everything is good man.

    So great to see a young core just grow together. Rocket fans never got to experience this stuff.

    That's how you know they're brothers. I KNOW Alpi was pissed to all hell that he wasn't playing until the final seconds of the game, but he didn't zone out or disengage from his teammates. He just played his ass off in OT and was the major reason we smashed the Sixers.

    Great vibes.

    This is the grizzlies schedule and Morant is missing games recently

    @ Clippers
    @Jazz
    @OKC
    Lakers
    Celtics
    Warriors
    @ Heat
    @ Pistons

    I’ll be optimistic for Memphis and say they go 7-5
    That would put them at 49-33.

    we jsut have to win 5 more games to take the 2 seed.


    We still play Miami, Utah, and Phoenix . If we jsut win the games we’re favored and then Split the rest, we’re division champs

    Divisions no longer have any bearing on seeding. We don’t have to just beat out Memphis to be the second seed. Lakers, Denver, and GSW are all within striking distance. I think we end with the 4 or 5 seed, which is still outstanding given the youth of this team.

    Not exactly true.

    The Division Leader is the top tiebreaker for multi-way ties and 2nd tiebreaker after the head-to-head record for two-team ties. With the Lakers and Denver the last 2 games, there is a real chance the Rockets being the division leader will become important.

    Denver being in the division with OKC could get screwed.

    Loved seeing this. We really have an unusually high character core, when you have this much youth there's usually a lot of bickering, jealousy and a few selfish ones. There's often clashes with the vets too.
