    Again, what the ****?

    Last second possession, down 3, and we have the ball be brought in bounds by Smith, who is an idiot, and Sengun who can't ****ing shoot.

    If this was by design I want heads to roll.

    If Sengun just decided to try to play hero instead of the pass to the actual shooter, the team needs to beat the **** out of him with a sock full of nickels tonight.

    We're not tripping but if we did trip I bet the refs would've awarded the Nuggets another FT.

    ****ing shitty-ass referees...

    Who cares if the refs took this one from us. The bigger picture is we can't beat Denver esp when they have Gordon and Braun.

    Acut
    Actually Holiday was wide open in the corner. I doubt Ime drew it up that way, but Sengun panicked or hero balled it. Refs and Ime took this game from us. If he would have just played normal rotations throughout the game, we would’ve won. Maybe he’ll go back look at the tape and say to himself, “yeah, I need to quit just throwing sh*t at the wall and actually coach.

    We absolutely need to find a way to get KD the damn ball at the end of games.

    Apart from the first 4 games of the season, Sengun's three-point shooting has been getting worse and worse

    That might make sense if the Nuggets blew up several options.

    It was literally the first play the Rockets fan.

    Time to acknowledge Ime is a literal 2nd grader on offense. Dude is an absolute clown.

    Looking back at the replay, he jacked that up with 6 seconds left. They could of had time to setup a play.

    Not sure Alpi knew how much time was left....

    It's one game out of 82. We need someone who actually wants the ball in that situation cause everyone knows it's not gonna be KD. He just has to learn from Jokic that sometimes being the decoy and creating that shot for someone else is as good as actually taking it.

    it was a pretty educated guess based on the reffing up to that point

    Dillion has good moments but Suns fans are already questioning his pro/cons

    His head flew off at half time, he would have been ejected.

    KD won't bring us big leap.

    We made a bad trade.

    Lmao, Joker is light years ahead in seeing the game and making reads, sorry, that is just true.

    Plus a sick version of the 3 point shot.

    Alpe is more athletic and his hooks are better, that it. The Rox still have the better supporting cast but it gets overshadowed by the 1 man.

    2 things.

    1. We got screwed Amen's shin can't foul a guy.

    2. KD can't bring the ball up EVER again, he sucks at it...lean into Read, or Amen....or go get CP3
