    Thunder media were fearing the Rockets prior to this game.

    It’s so unfair that we are stuck with Jabari and OKC has Chet. ****!

    Udoka is just a one trick pony, he does not have a great Offensive system, without it, the ceiling is severely limited.

    You might claw your way to 46 wins but that is all.

    We have fake franchise players. They have real ones.

    Agreed, it's also unfair that we are stuck with Amen and Spurs get Wemby. Bummer!

    It is the realistic limitations of lacking a franchise player and star power.

    It is pretty bad that the Rockets had the 2nd, 3rd, 3rd, 4th, 16th and 17th picks and didn’t get a single star.

    They got some nice players and Sengun is pretty good - but no one that is getting 25+ a night and carrying you.

    I can’t begin to understand how you watch these games and still blame it on a coach. Open shots missed. Wide open shots. This is a poorly comstructed roster …not on purpose but by happenstance based on who was available when we had draft picks. But to keep blaming a coach for a roster that can’t hit an open shot to save their lives is insane to me.

    Doesn’t excuse the tactical and execution errors.
