    Defense is all about effort and the Rockets are lazy and unmotivated quite often.

    You can see that Phoenix are on a roll, if they get Jalen Green back on minute restriction, they are shooting for the 4-5th Seed.

    Even on a B2B with their plane arriving hours before tipoff. The Defense is Real.

    Honestly I think Reed avoid passing to KD earlier in the season was the right call. He probably felt that defender would rush the pass, but game plan is KD or nothing so our players are forcing obvious pass to KD

    If they get Jalen Green back, they're shooting for a top 3 pick.

    They've only given SGA 4 FT's, OKC can't win without it being 8 on 5

    Houston needs a Tertiary scorer. Trade FVV contract for a third bonafide scorer.

    OKC is the best team in the NBA hands down but people overrate them and talk about them like they are the 95 Bulls or something.

    suns are playing with extra juice because dillon instills that into the team.

    rockets no longer have that.
