    I'm deflated. I was ready to celebrate then they collapsed to start the 4th..

    though their DIFF is -4.8, they have size, can attack our rim easily and on the other end protect their boards soundly.

    That’s the real loss tonight. These guys won’t get consistent minutes again

    Rockets just don't like playing defense. A ton of those 4th quarter threes were wide open.

    It's too bad, it could be a special season if they just played consistent defense.

    Im just convinced that literally everything bad that happens to this team will be blamed on Dantoni, no and, ifs, or buts.

    It would have been embarrassing for the Pels to lose this. We are missing 3.5 starters.

    I think this is stamina. . . .
    Most of these guys playing more minutes than they ever played

    Should have Expected a energy drop off

    Speaking of bad shots, those catch and shoots with a hand in their face that House and Clark take they gotta stop as well. They never make them. Smh
