    I genuinely wonder how people figure these kind of talents out. Like this guy was just chilling one day and thought "you know what, I bet I can balance a ****ing massive pole on my shoulder" then after a while he found some girls who was like "yo, I bet i can climb all over that pole like a mother****er." I feel like maybe this is what happens if you mix meth and weed or some ****

    Nobody’s scoring, and we keep bricking wide‑open threes

    This game is for all intents and purposes over, but I suppose I'll just choose to wallow in misery and finish watching until the bitter end.

    Do the losses have to be both painful and embarrassing? Someone up there really hates us.

    This has to be the most pathetic offensive half in history for the Rockets. (29% FG and 17% 3 PT)
    :eek::eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

    If we come back and win this game the home town crowd will go crazy. That would be something for sure.

    That seems like a lot of weight on your forehead, you wouldn't want to take a headbutt off this feller

    even if the defense showed up like that lakers can just start falling down at the 3 point line and get free throws

    Why didn't the rockets sign LJ Cryer when he was available? We could have used some guard depth.

    Actually looking forward to not having Rockets basketball for a bit. This season has been frustrating.
