    Reed, Amen, Tari, DFS, Capela built the lead and dumb ass Sengun and Jabari threw it away.

    Another absolutely pathetic loss and more questionable coaching decisions from Ime.

    Has KD always been this much of a TO machine in his career? I’ve never seen a rockets player this turnover prone. Harden had a MUCH higher usage rate and never turned the ball over as much as KD.

    Michael Pina did a long segment on the Zac Lowe show today talking about how predictable and boring the Rockets crunch time offense was and we saw all of those things happen exactly the way he described

    Rockets just defer to Durant, everyone's knows it's coming, the other team keys on him (or Sengun iso)

    Everyone else just stands around, no movement, plan a fails and it's scramble to get off a catch & shoot as time runs down - exactly what we just saw

    Alp aint a top 20 player... not even a top 5 big. How you get beat by a player that hardly moves in embiid.

    I take back what I said after the win against the Spurs. This team is going nowhere, not with this coaching and not without an actual offensive system

    Shame on Ime.

    Absolute disaster class of a coaching job.

    Shame on Alpy. Soft ass **** all game, missed free thows, missed bunnies, pump faking all gane like a p***y.

    We HAVE to feature Reed more and lean into playing with pace when Alpy turtles up like this. What a waste of a great performance by KD, Amen and the bench.

    Sengun is just a souped up Sabonis. Bad defensive centers that can't shoot and need the ball to operate as a hub because they can't function without off the ball. You will never win with players like that.

    Sengun was so soft tonight. Dorrian Finney-Smith played Embiid tougher. You could tell that Embiid had no respect for Sengun. There's a reason Sengun, despite the hype, was rated so lowly by the players in the all star voting.

    I get it you’re biased and that’s your guy. But You do know you don’t have to suck his nuts all the time right?

    Capela was a +12 and the team was locking sh*t up when he was in there.

    Ime went away from what was working.

    1. It’s inexcusable for professionals to be poor FT shooters.

    2. The game was lost once Reed and Capela were benched and Sengun came back in.
