    True that. Unbelievable that Ime didn't come back with that same defense on Brunson with 5 minutes to go in the 4th quarter. Result: Brunson went off.

    Players play, but good coaching in any sport is super important. Ime is not it.

    Watched 3 quarters and had to go to my buddy’s birthday party. Felt very confident turning the game off. But I should have known better. To my horror I just checked the score. Have to find out what happened in that 4th quarter.

    but it must have been a colossal goat f#ck considering all of the Ime hate threads I see.

    No argument there.

    He hasn't been much clutch throughout his career though. He made the game-winner (3PT) vs Suns, but the score was tied, plus was a home game. Two other recent shots, we were losing, both road games, both misses. Those are tougher shots than tied home games.

    It's another log on our Fire of No Hope.

    As FUNNY as this is....IT'S TRUE!

    The Rockets are better when they are running. I think the others; Jabari, Tari, Amen, Capela etc wants to run, even at points in the game KD. That's how they played in the 2nd Qtr vs Charlotte and came back.

    The stigma is Sengun!! Running is not his style

    Watching boxing surrounded by people who don’t care about the Rockets, so I kept checking the score on the side. It was 91–76 last I looked, so I relaxed and felt they had it.

    Came back later and the final was… different.

    I refreshed. Then refreshed again. Nope screen still said 106-108. Been a real exciting 2nd round exit season.

    maybe the worst signing in Rockets history? The amount of money and expectations.
