    It is still a profoundly young team.

    Honestly something about how sound travels in TC along with the lighting and the small crowd makes Rockets games at home look like some Gleague televised game.

    I think the players feel that vibe also and just don't put in the energy they do in loud electric road arenas.

    The opposing team will get up and try just because they are facing the second seed in the West.


    Watch how hard this team tries in MSG

    Dude, WTF. The Rockets are 2nd in the west and have massively overachieved so far. Chill out.

    No, still second place. They're tied with Memphis, but they won the season series 3-1.

    Hopefully the Bucks do us a favor tomorrow and beat the Grizzlies in Milwaukee.

    The only positive about this game is that Reed Sheppard shot 40% from 3.

    Amen needs to get his fro back, and Sheppard needs to perma-shave his stache, then we will win the championship.

    Still 2nd. And if you think our January stretch was tough, look at Memphis February schedule.

    Sheppard and Adams are the only 2 Rockets that had positive +/- tonight.

    That said, if Ime had given Sheppard the minutes he gave Holiday, the Rockets might win this one anyway.

    The Grizzlies will benefit though from their 5 game road trip this month being broken up in half by the All-Star Break.

    i was patient last season when he admittedly implemented zero plays or system on offense. this year’s record is a product of solid defense and immense talent but without some sort of offensive methodology we’re not going to ever be a contender

    So you mean we are a tanking team without Sengun?

    You are an expert on finding excuses.
