Sengun runs into Kawhi trying to land and that's a foul on Kawhi? So random lol

What are the Rockets complaining about on that foul? Too many options of a foul to call

Great second half by George, and agreed, great choice going with Plumlee

Lucky win. Wish this team would stop waiting until the second half to start playing though.

It honestly feels like we win a lot more games when we’re behind big early.

I thought everyone basically played well after the first 20 minutes. Good minutes from bones and plumlee. Really should've won 3 straight on the road. On to the next one

I guess Zu still isn't back. The defense was much better in the second half. Good call from the coaching staff. One thing I like about this team that's different from last year, they're good in the clutch.

Have to give the Chiropractor some credit for that move. Maybe Brooks talking trash lit a fire under them. Or maybe it was that HOU was running out of gas on the second night of a B2B. End of the day, just win baby. Now two matinee games B2B, tough stuff, time to face our feer of the deer.

I agree that they should play more consistently for 48 minutes, but this was not a lucky win- they thoroughly outplayed Houston in the 2nd half

Good win. Houston is a pretty good team. Şengün has star qualities showing this year.

Good move pulling Zu from the game and great second half from the trio. Didn't panic, pulled through, and won the game. Should've been a 3-0 road trip.
