    The two headed center dragon raises its eyes and snorts some smoke.

    Two of the future All-Star, nurtured in Istanbul before moving to NBA will play against each other:Sengun of Besiktas vs Bogdanovic of Fenerbahce (the other Bogdanovic, Bojan was also playing for Fenerbahce before NBA).

    Another Istanbul derby, mighty Fenerbahce (put Hawks) against underdog Besiktas (Rockets in this case).

    We always support underdogs, go Sengun go!!!

    Man if this team beats the hawks, I don’t care about the losses to Bucks and Grizz. This would be an amazing bounce back game. I believe!

    god bless you and good for you!... the streak was electrifying and i dont even mind if/whenever they lose but to be throwing the games like this on purpose... i cant do it...its all meh to me now...and what is making it all even less fun is to know the other teams may be throwing games like this on purpose... to me it defeats the purpose and takes away from fun of the winning...its wwesque...you want to really win and not the game to be forfeited to you without play

    I was more invested in us winning when we were trying to keep our winning streak going.

    More wins would be cool but I don't mind if we lose as long as improvements are seen by our players and coach and they compete on a nightly basis.

    i dont even care when we lose if they gave the other team fight, but to throw away games on purpose like this by benching the best player who started to own MVP and starting the lineup you know it doesnt work...its spoils everything for me...

    No fan who actually watches most of the games wants to see us get blown out. Even the ones that want us to tank.

    Those that don't watch most of the games but want us to tank don't care if we lose by 40. They're not watching the games so the viewing experience doesn't matter to them. They only care about the end result, which for them is losing.

    We watch the games for excitement and blowouts are anything but that. We can't get our excitement from a lot of wins because we are not contending this year. We can only get it from the progress of our players and team, which is why we tune in to watch.

    Easy win for the Rockets if Josh Christopher plays significant minutes.
