    I'm coming up with my own catch all metric for Rockets playoff performance evaluation, I'm calling it R.E.T.A.R.D.

    battier and chuck hayes alone would beat the current rockets based on them being studious alone

    sengun wouldn't even be able to move chuck hayes an inch

    Yep, that team actually was an example of a well coached teams, all of those guys overachieved while right now, all of our guys look terrible like scrubs who can't defend or put the ball through the net.

    Entire team looks dumb because they are never prepared for the game ahead of them.

    ive been following this guy for a long time. dude is always right somehow

    we all better hope for these lineups in the 2nd half or they are done

    i remember the Capela, Eason, Thompson, Okogie, Sheppard being really good once a upon a time.

    Not the whole game & why get treatment during the game if your not playing. He is hiding & embarrassed. Fred has been at dam near every game. Steven Adams is out there supporting.

    I'm right there with you. They may suck but they are my team.

    Won't support it financially with this suckiness, but they are my team.

    If half the league wasn't tanking, this would be a 40-win team or worse.

    Haven't seen him either. There's also a thread on the subreddit about it and I don't see a single comment saying they saw him.

    This team looks completely shot mentally. Playing scared every possession and that’s on coaching. Easily the worst Rockets season I’ve watched in 40+ years.

    Not being able to stop the 41 yo LeBron James/Ayton or Hayes pick and roll is CRAZY

    I hope the Lakers win. OKC doesn't deserve a cakewalk next round. At least LA has a chance to compete if Luka and Reaves comes back

    KD came here to show the haters he could lead a team to the promised land and instead he's just added to his haters
