    Imagine how much of a cuck you need to be to buy an LA jersey when you don’t even live there, and then go to a Rockets game wearing it.

    There’s still a quarter to play - not celebrating a thing until we’re up by 40 or the clock is zero.

    But my 3 dogs are not hiding in the back bedroom tonight. Take that as you will.

    I don't want him to come back in this series. Keep this starting lineup.

    Can’t think of having a big lead. Have to still be aggressive and keep the pressure up. This is the season with no room for error.

    I know it's a lot to ask, but Amen developing his left hand would make his finishing so much easier. He's always having to contort his body in weird ways just to get back to his right hand.

    Reports say if this were the regular season he'd miss 2 to 3 weeks. He's done.

    It’s a big ask for the young core and uncles Jeff to beat both LeBron James and Kevin Durant at the same time :eek:

    He's just a kid and maybe moved from LA with his family awhile ago? It should be a free country despite this administration.

    The only bad thing about a 25 point lead is that the Lakers could rest their starters. LeBron will play until he gets a couple of free throws to get to 10. But once that happens, LeBron, Smart, Rui, and Kenard are sitting out resting for Game 5.

    Sad as a Rox fan to be worried with a 20 plus lead going into the fourth

    Both the Suns and Rockets fandom think their teams are way more fun to watch when he's not there.

    Wonder why that is.

    Is this the fastest this fan base turned on a player? Christian Wood has a better honeymoon period.

    its sad because it was us suppose to be us being the dominating team, everything just sunk compeletly.
    Shows you how much it really depends on the coaches and how they run plays, and who
    wants it more, and who can make shots.
