    C gets beat by a perimeter player.

    The same perimeter player who has beat every single perimeter defender on the Rockets, time and time again.

    There, fixed your stupidity.

    It's wild that Sengun has to create his own shot on nearly every possession. No center in the world is asked to self create at that volume.

    Close game late in the 4th quarter.

    Good thing we have such a good head coach who manages these situations so well.

    Not paying Tari was smart. Not trading him for Coby White was dumb

    14 assists tonight, 12 turnovers. Your point definitely shows in the box score.

    Seems like they resent him because he's outplayed his draft status but they all haven't played up to theirs

    I honestly can't put a finger on it. It just seems like there's zero interest in sports. Even with KD on the team, it still looks bad.
