    Tari is absolutely ****ing useless.
    He passed the open shot.
    Bari then takes a double pump 3.

    We have a team full of ****ing idiots.

    Reed Sheppard is ****ing terrible.

    "Shame on them" whispers Rafael Stone to himself.

    Tate’s dumbass lost this game. He’s worn out his welcome! I don’t wanna see him on the squad next year

    Tate is the one who fouled smart for 3 fts// up 6 with 20 seconds to go and they are bout to lose. It is humiliating to be a Houston sports fan. legit traumatizing.

    Lakers have grabbed and pushed on each jump ball - and refs been tossing them closer to Lakers vs middle

    We're losing this game, but you know what? I'm proud of our young guys. Amen, Sengun, Bari, those 3 gave it their all tonight.

    he is horrible. Nothing will change if he’s around. I don’t care if we had SGA and Joker on this team.

    Reed stinks

    this is what happens when you draft a barely 6 foot defensive liability who can't shoot
