    This game right now will tell us how well this team will fair in the playoffs. Because they will have times where the other team starts hot and the Rockets will need to battle back. Win or lose this game... they have to compete until the end and make it close at some point, otherwise we will not survive the first round no matter who we play.

    I can't believe it's already trash time from the first 2 minutes this game.

    Deservedly so. He's reverting to playing soft and indecisive again. Looks like January Sengun and not the guy we saw in March.

    The Suns are proof that you don't need big, long wings to play physical. Our entire theory of the case is wrong.

    we are going to need Jalen to use his generationally bad whistle to help us win this game.

    Poor Jalen fans. Is sengun a bad defender or is Jalen a worse player making sengun look good defensively?

    I should also mention Jalen is still playing for the Rockets tonight instead of the Suns.

    Rockets waiting for Lakers to fall from 3rd to 4th / 5th, so Rockets wants to stay in 4th / 5th.

    Jalen doesn't play for us anymore so I don't really care, but that guy consistently get such a rough whistle.

    This is the perfect game to play Reed and Holiday together. Suns are doing this with speed, not size.
