"Y'all have had a great run…gotten to 2nd in the West, coming off a stretch where you went 3-0 against the top 2 teams in the East. It feels like you've made the statement you wanted to make"



Rockets : "Hold my beer…don't worry, won't be for long, I can completely change this narrative in a span of 4 games."

This team's absolute implosion since mid-4th quarter last Thursday has been horrifying.

Hey at least we didn't trade Luka.

The two 4th quarter collapses against the Grizz and Knicks were bad but at least tolerable given they were road games against two good teams.

The two losses against a simply terrible Nets team were inexcusable. Nets had lost 11 straight at home and only won 5 times at home 5 all season….

All star break can't come fast enough.

I would say the schedule gets much easier after that but this team seems to be giant slayers who the turn around and fumble against the ****ty teams.

Really feel for Amen. He's a smart kid and he will learn valuable lessons from the last 2 nights, but you know he's got rocks in his stomach right now.

Sure but he had a TO in his pocket either he forgot or the staff let him down. What he did was literally the worst possible thing you can do

And there was no need to rush. Rockets were acting like they were down one instead of being up one.

This team is very average without Vanvleet on the floor.

Maybe due to being so young but Great point. They were really going fast for no reason at all

Also those quick shots by Reed and more so green didn't help.

It might be time for Udoka to give the fellas the old "fat little girlfriends" speech.

Despite our dip in performance, I still don't think we should trade anyone on our team. If anything, we should pay close attention to the buyout market...specifically Khris Middleton. He might be washed as a starting high level player, but I think he would look amazing parked in the corner at Toyota center waiting for a Sengun pass.

It wasn't just the last in-bounds play. Not too long before we contrived to get the ball in the backcourt to our worst free throw shooter in Sengun (he made both) when they needed to foul.

Clearly something the team hadn't given much thought to in practice.

That's a weird trade. We already have a ton of guys that can play D but have no real offensive game. This doesn't make sense unless we are about to trade Tate.

We have a team full of young players and our adult (Fred) was sidelined. I'm putting the blame on Ime. He needed to call a TO, get us properly lined up and get Sengun out of the game.

Will Draymond and Butler be the first teammates to get thrown out of a game for punching each other on the court?

Like I said a couple weeks ago, I think the Suns are gonna struggle out the rest of the season, and them trying to trade Durant and then not trading him certainly doesn't help things. That pick may be gold.

Random bench player going off against us, some untimely missed FTs…am I watching the Aggies?

8 points through 8 minutes in the 4th. Went from up 6 to down 7

This team needed a closer at the deadline. They have crumbled in the 4th quarter nearly every night

5 L's in a row. Starting to collapse around the same time last year. Good news is we have a bigger cushion.

Not sure I've ever seen a good team so consistently bad in the 4th quarter. It's shocking

These fourth quarter collapses continue. Extremely concerning.

KD would waste all the assets for a guy who only has a couple of years left. Booker wasn't even available.
