    When are are shooting 20% from three...just take the 2 points, like at that point you don't have it tonight, just take the two, keep the score moving, build some momentum.

    28 shots for Jabari and Sengun.
    8 shots for Durant.
    Good job, Ime.

    yep.. just sit KD out the rest of the series and let these kids show they belong. There's no championship this year anyways.

    Let them prove that whether they're busts or not - my money's on all of them being complete busts, but i'm willing to give Amen and Reed one more year. Everyone else can go.

    Any decent coach would bench Tari for his tunnel vision in transition. Give the ball up, bro.

    The bench is 2 for 20 tonight. Impossible to win like that. Stone needs to be held accountable for this abortion of a roster.

    Ime is trash. Dude doesn’t know how to run a play to save his life. How about we get Reed coming off screens for some open shots? I don’t know - seems like we could use some shot making. But what do I know. Keep playing Tate - that def helps

    Have you seen us? We are not capable of making threes, FTs, or layups

    The complete lack of an offensive system is really rearing its ugly head.

    Probably a good thing the rockets didn’t get a number one pick. They would have screwed it up

    Ime led team going into a 4th quarter down? I’m sure this will go well.

    The good news is that the 4th Q is our worst offensively this year....

    Doubt it. His game has regressed. I don't know how Rockets coaching staff does it seems like players go backwards instead of forward lol.
