    From TheScore:

    “Udoka made the Rockets watch the last 30 seconds of regulation immediately after the game to try and help his players learn from their mistakes.”

    That’s right, Ime. Traumatize your team by forcing them to watch their own ass-raping again.

    I’m still trying to figure out what Tate was doing, someone needs to check him for point shaving

    Dude's real job is the torturer of autocratic regimes.

    Show the tape after 1 or 2 days of practice.

    Coming back from a major injury. Sure he played well in the playoffs but we forget how bad he was in the regular season that year...

    His absence easily cost us 6-8 games this season though

    You knew either Tate or Tari would foul the 3 point shooter. They really can't help themselves with that.

    Tate just fouls, bro plays not even like 15 mins a game and still will be there with 4-5 fouls. Ime loves that kind of stuff.

    The sad part about it is...it was Marcus Smart lol.

    I could see if Kennard was taking that shot and Tate panicks like oh shat, this dude is about to get an open three...it's f'n Smart who had cooled all the way off and wasn't a threat from three. Who cares if he takes a contested three? He was probably going to brick it, we get the rebound, game over...just terrible on several levels.

    He is supposedly a player motivator! That must be why the whole team lost self-confidence and interest.

    Good point, from that spot he probably shoots about 30% on contested 3’s. One of the most bone headed plays in franchise history

    Fvv fking blows as a pg. With the amount we paid him, we could have found a cheaper pg to do the exact same sht.

    Playmaking is subpar, scoring ability isnt even solid. Only thing he is really useful for is ball handling.

    True. What he provides us, especially considering he’s in his 30s, doesn’t need to cost $25m a year.
