About time Tobi shows up.

Not a big ask vs the Rockets, is it?

I always had faith in Tobias

Classic case of an old team that’s tired vs a young team that sucks

Rockets currently out-rebounding us:

25 to 15

Nothing to worry about. We will get this fixed by the 2nd round of the playoffs.

Is the coaching staff going to get on Embiid about boxing out? It's really bad aesthetics and I don't care about how much he has to score he already takes plays off defensively atleast secure the rebound when it comes off the rim.

Our rebounding is a tragedy.

The fact we're winning while Joel is 3-8 with 8 pts and 2 TO is a testament to how much the Rockets suck

Need to get Tucker in ASAP to give us a spark before halftime

Embiid took the ball all the way down the court just to turn it over. Where is Dedmon atleast he will give it to a guard to bring the ball up?

That was such a clear offensive foul by Sengun

Ok this is one of my pet peeves

How can Doc not insist Jo hand it off to an actual ball handler?

Is Joel exempt from coaching / basic basketball common sense?

We shouldn't need Embiid to win against this team. It's a testament to how overrated we are.

Tucker won't return dont know if we can pull this out without his intangibles...

Have the Rockets connected one Jumper in this game? serious questioj

Good possession to end the half

Encouraging 1st half

Rockets massively overplaying Embiid’s spin towards the lane, turn the other way and he can waltz to the basket, but so far he keeps turning into the double team.

I love this team! Remember that one photo of Embiid kissing the championship trophy after we trounced the Nuggets in the Finals 4 games to 1? That picture gave me chills when I saw it!

Tucker did manage to uselessly foul on a Green three pointer, kind of like making a jumper.
