I don’t get why we’re switching when they can’t shoot? Just follow over the top

The way Steph makes these unforced turnovers is like a tennis player double faulting their way out of a game.

Kerr is so damn confusing. Guys get an opportunity, perform well, then don't play them in the second half.

He's trying to do too much and assumes his guy is going to be in a certain spot. He and Draymond.

Not watching the game, so I just saw what happened to Butler. Am I to understand that Amen Thompson did NOT get ejected for that horse$hit move where he clearly went after Jimmy's legs? If so, seriously, WTF. :crazy: :banghead:

What da f… are you you watching? Adams pushed Amen and he stumble on Green.


My bad. Apparently, I used AI to generate the camera angle most favorable to formulate an opinion that the Rockets play dirty. :D

Surprised no one mentioned it was Draymond who pushed Amen Thompson under Jimmy, which caused the injury. Go ahead, watch it again.

Great job, Draymond. 5 turnovers, and you took out our second-best player for the game and possibly for the season.

its bad but he also has nobody who can receive the pass. This team is constructed like a circus. Everyone playing scared. Hield and JK should never see a min.

Spencer has played sparkplug off the bench all his nba life. Jk has different expectations. His timing and rhythm is off.

I'm no kuminga fan, but him struggling after being on the bench for so long should be expected.

I think that's going to be the last of the Kuminga experiment, unless Jimmy is out.

Eh, idk. I don't care what he shot, but I would've liked to see him play with some energy and urgency. Just looked like he was going through the motions out there.

Get some real **** shooters in the offseason. I think Podz and Post can get there, but Hield and Kuminga never will have the consistency needed to be relied on. Moody I'm not really sure, but he's a decent all-around player, if we didn't need his 3 point shooting as much he'd be fine.
