    Meanwhile let a guy hit two threes on our team, he'll get taken out of the game and won't take another shot until a quarter later.

    We just aren’t in the same class as SA. This is a wake up call. Just outmatched.

    KD and Sengun are two beta males. I mean, KD's career speaks for itself and Sengun doesn't have what it takes to be that #1 guy. I rather have someone fail at being than the #1 guy than 2 guys who don't even want to be one.

    Is Sengun that much better than Kornet? I’m not sure his ankle is the issue but he genuinely looks like 80 rating guy in 2K

    we need some shooting at the deadline

    Honestly at this point I wouldn't mind unloading on some of our talent for future firsts. Even Reed is on the table. Amen is only untouchable tbh

    this rockets team is a 5th seed at best.

    most of us need to accept this.

    we can only hope durant stays healthy and go on a generational playoffs run.

    What a dumb game. Incoming new career high for yet another player I've never heard of.

    Does anyone have fun watching Rockets basketball any more?

    I remember when games were fun, with nearly the exact same bunch of assholes that we're watching now.

    Truth be told. Spurs are much better. We can't tank. It didn't work for us. Trade to get better.

    we’re actually shooting 56% from the field and still getting outclassed

    Just no defensive plan, stop letting Wemby just take open mid range shots, double him. Make someone else actually try to beat you other than Wemby or Chapenny.

    Nah, coaching is all about telling your team that they're soft. That's all you need to do.

    Also the lack of Bari involvement is baffling. I’m not his biggest fan but my god he just had a monster game and he’s barely touching the ball.

    Spurs hang 70 on us at the half. Rockets are no longer a good defensive team.
