    Houston is going to win their game by the way. It doesn't matter if you win ugly on the road.

    (or at least it looks like they're going to win).

    They aren't playing very well, but they are playing hard. Cheers for that.

    Glad we ended the roadtrip 3-1, but no lie, when Hassan grabbed his knee I was scared as shit. That third quarter was a scary. With nobody inside it would be the end of our season.

    After watching Galo tonight I’d pass on him.
    No fight in the post. Sabonis or Love hands down.

    Good end of the road trip win! The west is a dogfight every night...teams are all playing defense better including us. I think watching the games we've played so far has been really fun basketball to watch.

    Scott Brooks used his challenge in the first half and didn't have any timeouts at the end of the game, and a challenge could have won them the game over Houston when Harden was fouled with 2 seconds left in the game. The TV guys didn't think it was a foul.

    Hood as the corner outlet instead of Moe or Chief is unbelievable. Dame's spacing is gonna improve even more after teams start scouting.

    Using a challenge in the first half is dumb, even if it means a guy avoids getting in foul trouble because There’s no way of guaranteeing that player won’t just pick up another foul on the very next play. Refs make a shit ton of mistakes, gotta keep that in the pocket.

    In other news, Scotty Brooks is a shitty coach.

    I was thinking the same. Even if his shooting stats were not great tonight I still feel like we have 3 clutch shooters with Hood in there at the end.
    At some point Simons will get there too. With Dame and CJ on the floor that other wing often gets wide open shots.

    No refs win. I watched the last few minutes of that game and it's a disgrace to basketball.
