    This game is frustrating just off the sheer fact we have been money from the free throw line.

    Would at the very least be a tie series if we weren’t so ****.

    Yep, and they are an older team so its more likely they'll throw in the towel if you force them to and be content with trying to close it out game 6.

    Since I’m in Florida, I’m loving these early games. The games started on 9:30-10pm had been tough.

    this is the rockets worst lineup. hopefully when the big lineup is deployed, rockets can go up by 30 points.

    Rockets should had won last game, and would be on the run to be up 3-2... but being down 3-1 right now is going to be near impossible for us to win this.

    If Rick adelman or D Antoni was our coach, Amen would average 25 a night.

    I love when Amen pushes the pace.

    That corner 3 by Fred was all his doing.

    Get two feet in the paint, when help comes find the open guy and trust that he’ll swing it. Great job by Dillon making the immediate touch pass to Fred.


    I feel like this is the kind of stuff Jalen still struggles with, its pretty rare to see him pass on his drives. If he gets two feet in the paint a shot is going up, he’s not strong enough to finish consistently among the trees

    Post sucks at defense but plays to shoot threes.

    y’all say Reed is a liability, why the **** can’t we have him on offense?!

    We have two of the fastest players in Amen and Jalen so we're wasting them whenever we slow the pace down especially off missed shots and such.
