    Amen really showing off his PG skills tonight. Just need Reed to hit some of these open threes and we're in business.

    i think he's faster with the ball than without the ball

    like how some soccer players are faster when dribbling than just running lol

    Reed always comes out cold. It's almost like he needs to take a few shots to calibrate his aim.

    i think Reed will get hot eventually. Dude is sick, but it's no excuse, gotta knock 'em down. The good thing about him is he won't get down about missing shots, dude's gonna launch it.

    The Udoker’s adjustments are so subtle it’s over most people’s heads

    Rockets finally realized that if you run out on their shooters most of them will hesitate.

    Even saw last game where Reed closed out on an open Rui and despite the fact that Rui could just shoot over him he pump faked and put the ball on the floor.

    He's tiny and it was obvious that having him on the floor would hurt their defense which had been great in the first 3 games. They were unlucky that he returned from his injury.
