That looked like a comedic lane violation.

Jalen Green has no idea what he wants to do when he drives and randomly throws the ball away. Like 10 times already

I wonder how will they generate offense here


So they’ll be battling FVV lead and Podz lead 1-5 PnR

Come on Rockets, they can't lose this game without Butler playing.

Had to look it up. basketballreference had him at 11, Steph at 12th.

LeBron
MJ
KAJ
Kobe
Shaq
Duncan
KD
Mailman
Dr J
Jerry West
Parker
Steph

EDIT: that is both NBA and ABA. NBA he was 10th


Manu probably not far either. They've been in the playoffs forever. Pretty sure they have one of the largest playoff games played together as a trio.

Hard to believe its been 9 years since Adams played against GSW in that OKC series where OKC blew a 3-1 lead. He was awesome in that series too.

Is it just me or can you guys hear the commentators lately saying “got it!” A split second before you see it go in on your screen? Kind of ruins it hearing it goes in right before it does

He has to learn how to decel and have an in between game. He’s basically just jacking up 3s and doing kamikaze drives.

Steven Adams carrying a team in the playoffs is not something I thought I’d be saying in 2025…

Just get Jimmy back and bounce these bums. Im sorry but Rockets are atrocious. Ime needs to win COY by a landslide. It's like reverse basketball.

You know when you've got great scorers on your team and it's basically pick your poison? Rockets are the opposite. It's famine or famine.

I picked Rockets to win this series but I just can root for this garbage anymore. This team is beyond incompetent on offense.
