Rockets played smart. Saw Bridges looked injured and immediately tried to exploit. We have OG go down, forced to play Precious and Hukporti because KAT looks like DOG $h!t, and they repeated ignore them....WIDE OPENED!

I completely agree with this statement. He needs to use those arms and elbows.

He gets fouls using arms and elbows. He needs to use his butt and shoulders, by sitting down more as Maury was saying

It feels like not the right team for Thibs in particular

But we could find a coach who sucks altogether

OG was covering for him. Without OG, Towns is really exposed on defense.
