    @Os Trigonum dinner tonight will be a curry beef and onion bun in between work, three quarters of the rockets, and a class.

    obviously these buns were enough to get goon going :eek::eek::eek::eek:

    The ISO clear out for Sengun to take from the 3 point line had disaster written all over it. He gets stripped and I angrily yelled "I KNEW IT, I ****ING KNEW IT" right away.

    Great win in a place the Rockets haven't won in 5 years. Reed passing the ball to Alpi with 8 seconds is very disappointing. You want to close the game at the line.

    Tate is just a winning player. Don’t know why he doesn’t play more. I feel the same about Capela. These guys are winners

    Looks more like sweet nothings when he talks to it. I think the ball might be cheating on him

    Well whatever he's done, it's definitely not letting him put it in the hole any more.

    Great win without KD. Rockets are Super Bowl contenders

    Sengun carried the points load. Good bounce back game from him.

    Amen looked off but turned it on when it mattered.

    Jabari making shots was the difference. Team feels like it lives and dies by him.

    Wonder why Reed didnt play again. Even by Ime's standards he shouldve been put in but maybe someone will ask.

    Grizz doing us a solid by beating the Wolves. Should create some space.

    Same with Jeff Green and Davison. They are completely buried under Ime.

    Alpy should start talking to the basketball again on FT line. He lost the magic since stopped talking to the ball

    Trade Jimmer. Trade Jimmer while he still has perceived value.

    If you wouldn’t trade Jimmer for an upgrade, you’re crazy.

    Just like Sengun was injured. Did Sengun look injured tonight? Funny how they’re only injured when they suck.

    Attach Jimmer to Dude F-ing Sucks ($23.3M) and get some help in here.

    Ty Jerome looks so good for the Grizzlies today. We could've gotten him instead of DFS.

    Even though he missed his 3’s, I thought Reed started out the game pretty good. Amen looked like a deer in the headlights in the first half, but got his sh*t together in the second half and, of course, he was awesome on defense and the offensive boards. One thing to take into account is that Indy has very good perimeter defenders and they clearly gave Amen and Reed fits. I was disappointed that we didn’t see Ime bring out some different offenses sets. It was nothing buy ISO’s for everyone with a few Pick and Rolls sprinkled in. We might as well stop b****ing about it, because it’s not going to change with this coach. Amen, Sengun, and Durant will have to play absolutely great in every game in the playoffs to get through a single series.

    It was super obvious - I told my son it was going to be a strip run out and - exactly. Ime should have called TO from the sidelines. The previous possession of Amen aimlessly dribbling also nearly ended in disaster.

    That said - good to see Sengun use all star snub energy

    Hack-A-Sengun in close games might be a thing soon
