PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
Rebounding killed us.
Tony Brothers blown call at the end was classic incompetence.
KPJ had a brief nice run in the second quarter but wasn't good overall. You can't cry that he wasn't in at crunch time when he sucked the first half of the 4th quarter. Dame and Kuzma were bad.
But at the end of the day grab some rebounds and it's a win.

I'm against picketing but I don't know how to show it.

You can't ask for a cleaner shot there.
Unfortunate but it is what it is.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
Ultimately, we lose that on second chance points. We gifted them offensive board after offensive board. Regardless of the **** reffing, our rebounding was much, much worse.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
Terrible loss. These Rockets are beatable. Brook had a natural match-up. Were allowing 2nd chance points & making bonehead decisions offensively. Our halfcourt offensive orchestration is worse now. It's never been great.
As for Doc, his game management is so poor. Doesn't save a TO to advance the ball, challenge again. And the lineup combos still don't make sense. That was part of the rebounding problem. Played 3 small guards a lot.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
Before that late dunk Giannis had one shot in the fourth. When your GM doesn't give your team enough offence that is inexcusable.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
These are the games you miss Midds. That missed open three from Kuz and the spaz attack on the fast break were rough.
Just a poor night on offence. We had so many chances down the stretch and couldn’t make it happen. Ugh.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
Terrible rebounding and Giannis not touching the ball at all in crunch time is something. Dames decision making at the end was atrocious.
They need to improve at situational basketball dramatically and fix their rotation.

Dame was so Lame. Choked down the stretch, and never let Giannis touch the ball. Dame is not a PG.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
We didn't deserve to win but that non shooting foul call at the end was something. This agenda against Dame on these calls needs to be addressed with the league.

Compete disaster of a 4th quarter. Starting with Doc having Giannis/Dame on the bench for 5 minutes to start the 4th.
Kuz has some major warts and probably bogs down the offense a ton come playoff time. Nothing he does is efficient.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
Felt like a couple of empty Kuzma possessions in the 4th really hurt us.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
Horsesh*t officiating, which we knew going in. Gotta anticipate and attack rebounds. We are pathetic in that regard and the Rockets are loaded with dawgs.

Re: PG Rockets - Streak Stopped at 4
Blame everyone. Refs, Rockets, Dame, everyone. I can't believe they didn't call that a shooting foul when he shot the ball as soon as he got the ball. Total crap. That said, they still had their chances and Dame just missed shots.
Annoying.

Kuzma and Brook 4/10 Dame 7/22 not going to beat any good teams like that. Really could have used Bobby tonight.
