12-6 with the abysmal play from the backcourt is a huge win. Unfortunately Reed Shepherd isn't the quick fix some were hoping for. If we could win 47-50 games this year and be a problem in the first round, that is a huge win. Fix something in the backcourt and come back next year and we could be something special.
Crazy game. Heading to OT.
Sengun finally. He was ice cold.
Blown 18 point lead. OT.
11-0 run in OT to ice it.
What a roller coaster.

This team seems to give zero Fs… in a good way.
Was watching off and on tonight and missed the first half of the 4th quarter. But noticed we didn't play Jalen at the end of the game or OT. Didn't even see him on the bench or celebrating. Did he get hurt or did he get benched and sulk instead of being a team player?
Well he sucks, maybe the coaching staff and management has figured that out.superaggie73 said:

Pretty sure I saw him a few times late. He just wasn't good last night and the team got hot with Amen on the floor instead.superaggie73 said:

That said, I saw a post somewhere that said the Rockets would be better with Zach Lavine instead Jalen Green and that made me really sad to think about.
Appreciate the t wolves committing to a terrible start to the season by making a massive trade right before the season started l. They are now 8-9 and 11th in the west.

I agree he sucks and he is easily my least favorite player on the team. It sucks that we can't trade him this year because of the rules of the extension. Now we have to play him and make him look tradeable in the offseason or we waste so much cap space the next couple of years.
Jalen reads TexAgs
Brooks 0-11
Wow and brooks fouls him on a 3!!! Wtf

Brooks 0-11
And the game tying foul
That's such a horrendous call in crunch time. Embarrassing whistle from that ref
That was quite a final play with 11 seconds on the clock.
That was bizarre
Tell brooks not to shoot
Would have rather had green to final shot tonight
Make up call
Kick back out to Jalen he was wide open Alp
Alpy having an awesome start to the season
41 points for Green
Sixers go to 3-14 with loaded roster
Amen is just incredible. His energy and defense are elite. Kinda looks like he might be the crown jewel of the tank.
To be fair, Embiid and George haven't played much.mAgnoliAg said:

I love this team so much
Amen and Eason heat check: 33 points, 20 rebounds, 4 assists, 3 steals, 5 blocks
Rockets (14-6) vs. Thunder (15-4) Sunday night at 6 pm
Battle of top 2 seeds in the West with Golden State losing 3 straight to drop to 12-7.
Two best defenses in the West - OKC allowing 103.2 PPG, Rockets 105.9 PPG. Only team better in the East is the surprising Magic, allowing 102.8 per game and off to a 14-7 start.
A win tomorrow gets Houston 0.5 games back of OKC for the top seed in the west.
Jeez it's early, but this is some delicious rareified air to be breathing. Twenty games in and the team is on pace for 57 wins.
Some stats to look at:
Great balance of minutes: Dillon Brooks leading the team in minutes per game at 30.9. Only he and Sengun (30.5) are above 30.
Green is leading the team with 19.4 PPG: Sengun 18.7
Sengun 9th in the league in rebounding at 10.7 per game.
Tari Eason 3rd in the league in steals at 2.1 per game despite only playing 22.8 minutes per game. Van Vleet is 7th at 1.7 per game.
And how about a non-Rockets shoutout to Dyson Daniels of the Hawks AVERAGING 3.1 steals per game. Only 8 players in NBA history have ever averaged more in a season, among them Magic, Stockton, and Jordan.
Sengun tied for third in double-doubles with 14. Tied for 5th in triples doubles with 3

Jabari Smith off to a blazing start vs okc. 7 pts and 8 reb in 14 minutes. Rockets up 44-34
Have to stop the bleeding

Bleeding has stopped
