    This game seems like it's going in slow motion.

    I like Jae’Sean Tate he was always a bundle of energy when he played in Australia; played hard, played strong, never quit. I thought he’d be a good bench guy in the NBA, but I didn’t think he’d put up the numbers he is this season; 12.6@50.2%/5.7/3.1. I’m happy for him.

    Tate is not a good three point shooter, doesn’t take many (3 per game), makes far less (1 per game). So of course he’s lighting us up from downtown.

    Good no look pass by Nurk, then good ball movement around the horn for an open look at three. Unfortunately missed the shot, but the play was good.

    28 percent from the 3 usually don't cut it for a W for us.

    We went from 28 percent to 50 percent from the 3 with good ball movement.

    Slightly, but given the difficulties of the broadcast team not being able to travel with the team, I think they’re doing an outstanding job!

    I understand you weren’t criticising them, just wondering if it’s the broadcast, or your feed.

    It seems silly to me that the feed has to go from Houston, to the NBA in New Jersey, to Portland, to the NBA cloud servers, to us.

    The Rockets are bad.

    We played the first half with our brains tied behind our backs.

    We got 11 assist but let see this team stay enough in the 2nd half and continue to move the ball for there shots. Due to last 3 game's been atrocious in the 2nd half.
