    People are gonna make a lot of judgements, but OKC is the cream of the crop defensively, and we're getting opening night effort on the road.

    This was always gonna be a battlefight scoring wise.

    Doesn't look like there's a good plan when a guard, like Caruso, matches up with Sengun. I guess there's a huge fear of a flop foul.

    You'll get used to it and maybe even learn to like it.

    We need to fight through the ball denials. Our offense looking stagnant because we can’t make a pass. This has been a good defensive game so far.

    OKC playing up really close. Perfect for us to start spreading the floor and driving.

    Got to create some space for Sengun. They are crowding him.

    Rockets are going to be very good this season, but it's going to take a bit to gel.

    Little ragged so far, but that is to be expected with 3 new starters

    It's part of the culture and it wouldn't be any fun without it

    Reed looks 4'11 tops, ReTari Eason fumbled his bag, Ime is too busy running through wives to draw a play

    Need a coach who understands the Senhub, body movement off the ball and not just 10 seconds of holding the ball and force it to one guy who goes 1-on-1…

    We need DFS back as well. We have too many non-shooters on the court.
