Ime needs to learn how to call last second plays. Inbound plays are horrendous.

Chet had an even more monster game relative to his nos. This is the first real game of the Rox the core OKC had 82 games+playoffs together already. Fact that it took 2 OTs and just a 1 pt loss means this Rox team is legit. Once they develop chemistry watch out.

In fact we would have won in regular time if Tari didnt play like a scrub or Okogie didnt give that 4 pt play to SGA.

Every game we had vs OKC last season we didnt have 21 TOs but guess what we lost by double digits except for 1 game. This game we had 21 TOs but clearly OKC struggled to put them away and escaped by the skin of their teeth. TOs are overrated I care about the final score.

Shai Flopous should’ve been called for a shooting foul on Amen at 1:15 in 4th
Durant should’ve been called for technical (no timeouts)
Everything else “correct”

The Reports is pointless if Referees aren't Suspended, Fined or even Banned.

Yeah.

I give the Rockets credit for almost winning, but based on what I saw - the Rockets would be lucky to win 1-2 games in a 7 game series against the Thunder. They were without their second best player, and the Rockets were excited to play.

I am not putting down the Rockets - they are one of the better teams in the Western Conference, but short of the Thunder facing several massive injuries, the Rockets are not beating them in the post season.

The DFS signing was fine........ the Capela signing to me was the mistake. He isn't the same player he was a couple years ago and the lack of a play making guard was obvious. It feels like Stone and Udoka got too cute.

Agreed. No issues with DFS (Brooks replacement). Capela wasn’t needed with our gapping hole at back up PG (and now starting PG)

If the Rockets trade for a Veteran PG and add more shooters at SG, maybe a Stretch 3 point shooting Center (Very Rare).
