Clear foul

Imagine getting the whistle on the road, lucking into a Jimmy injury, but getting owned by GP and Podz down the stretch. I’d hate to be emotionally invested in this team.

Houston was given a huge chance with Jimmy out.

GS may not even need him to finish the Rockets.

Sheesh.

That is an incorrect reversal. He fouls Green after the ball is loose.

This dude is so frustrating to watch

That was dirty actually, scorpion tail didn’t connect with other player head like it was designed to do

Steph vs Rockets and it’s not even close.

I get this is the first away game experience for this Rockets young core. Tho if they are not able to beat Jimmy-less GSW then they might start packing their bags and start working on their next season.

It’s been a great season for them.

Thats some major disrespect to Detroit.

They'd win 4-2

Well on paper a 44-38 team shouldn't beat a 53-29 one, especially when the 53-29 one played in a tougher conference. Teams getting to game plan has shown me this Rockets team is helpless offensively in a series though. They need to make some moves or they will be stuck as a first round exit.

Records dont meant squat when it comes to certain teams. Everyone was skeptical of the rockets in the regular season. Nobody goes full throttle and Rockets capitalised.

Again, this is why Jalen Green isn't him.

9 poins. Dude is such a fraud.

Can't wait for the podcasts about this game.

Would've been nice to get that call right the first time and get the 2 points and momentum for the Amen breakaway or have the flop called on Draymond on the review. But all of this is expected. This whole game has been as expected, tbh.

They've been grabbing and bodying him all series and he's still lighting them up.

I've been following the league since around 1990.

Steph is one of the most physical "Small guys" since I've followed the league.

He's so smooth people just assume it's all finesse.
