    Sheppard gave away 7 pts in a few seconds.This has been the gamble all year to play an inexperienced player. Again they are playing him to develop him despite what fans are emotional about

    I’m so over Ime’s angry, tough guy routine. Just look at how much more functional SA’s offense is. Look at the ball movement. Ime should be angry at himself. Our buckets are coming purely from the talent of our individual players. No real system.

    How good was it when Amen was allowed to hound the ball handler like that as the point of attack on defense.

    LMFAO no one is allowed to say Ime is a defensive coach ever again.

    as long as Alpi is our last line of defense, this team will be a first round exit.

    That's what this defensive minded head coach does.

    **** everyone except reed and amen, idc if reed is Rudy and Amen can’t shoot. **** everyone except them and KD’s efficiency. I have never seen such a disgruntled disgusting body and body language of a coach in my entire life

    I love how Ime rolls out pretty trash butt lineups (Reed after 15 straight minutes, the horrific Amen/ Gun combo) and then gets mad when the predictable results occur against one of the best teams in the league

    Rockets have got a big fat zero out of Tari Eason and Jabari Smith so far. Get your heads out of your asses.
    Sengun is a -22.
    Woof.

    Why does Sengun bend his neck so weirdly?

    When passing or trying to close out on a 3, he thrusts his head towards where he wants to be.
    He looks SO uncoordinated!!

    Here is a tip:
    Just move you feet manboobs.

    One thing I noticed in that wish-I-could-forget-it loss against GSW was how quickly Kerr would call timeout when we started gaining momentum, and his guys came back out with increased ball movement and intensity (and a good play drawn up) basically every time. It's why they were able to stay with us and ultimately steal the win.

    Ime just doesn't coach like that. His timeouts are usually late and ineffectual.
