    He knows he’s about to get traded . Probably why he is playing like this.

    We get good shots and Tari misses them all. Not one single penny would I give him this summer.

    Just think if we would have traded Tari and Sengun for Giannis as we should have.

    Instead of watching this bone headed brick fest.

    Playing scared with no strength and confidence on offense. Can't win that way.

    Ari shot an airball, a missed 3 pt bank shot and blows layup after layup. Starter?!?!?!?

    Under 100 points again against the Lakers?!?!?!?

    Ime is no doubt an absolute joke.

    However your "all star" being incapable of taking advantage of literally anybody 1v1 in the post is not on him.

    Sengun has had a ton of good looks down low

    It sucks that inside you want to keep hope alive but you see this circus that Houston is running and it makes you wonder how we even were the 5th seed.

    Absolutely. We tanked for garbage. I’m open to any solution other than watching our best youngsters miss layups in the playoffs another year. Blaming this **** on coaching is so lazy and such a joke.

    giving eason big money would have been the kind of mistake teams regret later on. i'm glad we stuck to a reasonable number and said if you can do better on the open market all the best to you.

    I'm surprised we're only down 7 when we shot 21% from 3, and Lakers shooting 52%.
    Stop missing layups and hit a few 3s and we're back in.

    Put in uncle Jeff. Can’t be any worse than Sengun and/or Capela. Maybe it will help open up the middle

    Sengun was trying to get the foul there instead of actually aiming for the ****ing basket hahaha
