    These guard for the Rockets must do some booger sugar before game time.

    You obviously don’t watch many Rockets games FAMS! This ain’t shit, this is a pretty mellow night for them. Usually it looks like a summer league game out there.

    These Rockets guards are the epitome of good stats, bad team. And good stats may be a little generous.

    I’ve seen a couple games and always think those guys are out of control. Some nice young pieces in the front court but those guards are sloppy as hell. Rat ball

    Oh yeah, I’ve seen Porter and Green act like they are trying out for the Harlem Globetrotters out there.

    OKC is spanking Memphis right now and Ja just got thrown out in a controversial ejection.

    we better win this. The next two games are not guaranteed.

    Rockets are hustling and playing really hard. Blazers aren't. Still up 10

    Dame is not having a good game. Being a ball stopper on offense and getting beat repeatedly on defense.

    playing him removes any and all gravity that the ant/dame backcourt inherently generates

    This is the team I want to see. Even with Dame having off night.

    genuinely think houston is just... bad. 0 shooting so we're just clogging up passing lanes

    Houston literally has a 47-27 rebound advantage and are down 14.
