    Cousins can't help being an idiot. Ain't no way the Lakers would give up Austin Reeves for DB. Hachimura + whatever? Maybe.

    I feel like we definitely miss DB more than Jalen tbh.

    Zero idea what to expect.

    Carousel of injuries and keep playing .500-ish over the last month or so, so... toss up.

    Hopefully we can take advantage of a tired team, but I miss the defense and urgency of our play last year.

    The gap between our injury-infested team and Phoenix is not that much. The records prove it, though the Suns took down OKC last night.

    Oh hell yeah. I’m doing a little dance. We sorely missed Adams.

    aint gonna lie - i love seeing Adams in the starting line-up! He inspires intensity from the opening tip-off!

    Rockets need to start chipping away early so they aren't too far behind in the 4th and can steal one...

    if the texans can string together a 9 games win streak, why can't the rockets?
