    Feels like we're playing 5v6. On offense, no one can create space, open players are closed out on before the pass reaches them, no one can hit a shot, rebounds are few and far in between, and then on defense, we're not closing out, not getting back, rotating slowly, not getting rebounds. Just an all out disaster of a half.

    Jabari had Kennard on him and didn’t try to post him up. Lakers were playing smart, hunting for mismatches every time down the floor.

    Maybe the worst offensive team ever assembled. I remember my sons little league baseball teams, where half the kids were more interested in looking for bugs versus catching fly balls. This team, or Houston rockets are the ugliest, safest exist for a sports team EVER.

    Early in the first quarter I said ‘not good.’ Now it’s straight up terrible — a disaster.

    Evan Mobley turnover, gives up the game winning three, then misses the game winning shot on the other end

    Yep, that sums it up. 31 points in a half is a ticket to the offseason. We'll see what are youngins have this 2nd half. Great test for them, let's go men!

    Just as I expected, we defended okay but cannot score. A carbon copy of game 7 last year.

    Well I would say it’s been a fun season but it hasn’t. Hopefully we can offload Durant in the offseason and retool.
