    You can convert baskets and also seek out contact, Harden would do it all the time.

    All I'm saying is if a player is doing that over and over again and the refs are blowing the whistle, you cannot be reaching and playing aggressive. You cannot. You are feeding into what he wants to do. He beat us at the FT line today, literally. If he goes to the line half of the time we win.

    Ime refused to send a double to stop letting him burn them.

    This. Whoever is their dev coach needs a belting. Is that Ben Sullivan? Fertita needs to dock his pay until further notice.

    8/36 from 3 when opponent just played zone with 2 centers is just embarrassing and unacceptable.

    Jabari managed to finish with 36 minutes and

    STILL finish with 6 & 3.

    That's a 35 year old PJ Tucker stat line

    Yeah, Ime's stubbornness is his second greatest weakness after his offensive ineptitude.

    don't forget the 3rd quarter buzzer beater by deni.

    could have gone with anything really with a game this tight and both teams shot like shiet.

    Deni getting a generational whistle for no reason is funny

    If they trapped and doubled Deni they would have won the game so yes its Ime fault.

    They shot 8/36 on mostly open 3s thats the fault of the shooting coach Ime hired so yes its Ime fault.

    Honestly Deni got alot of bullshit calls

    Rockets run away with this one if refs didn't slow our momentum with every whistle
