    Rockets are the best rugby team in the NBA.

    It's hilarious the coaching staff still sub out Alpi at the end of games.

    It's almost like they don't acknowledge how good he is defensively.

    Nor the difference with the immediate scores in the post once Alpi goes to the bench vs when Alpi was on the floor.

    It's literally been going back to the R word Silas days.

    Never made sense then. Stats said so.

    Still doesn't make sense now.

    Udoka is gone within 2 years. Tilman will finally realise he doesn't raise the ceiling of a good team.

    Bey fouled on Sengun's last shot before time expired. Of course they don't call it.

    Sengun has 5 fouls that’s why they’re subbing him out

    If we lose this, Sengun was the fault of the loss. That last play was awful.
