All ball.

Should be Warriors ball.

Instead Rockets get ball and a FT.

Rockets would be up 10 if they could hit free throws

I think Steph carried the ball away and they already had a delay of game, which would explain the tech that wasnt assigned to any particular player

The free throws left on the board are going to haunt Houston. Didn't they have a bunch in game 3 too?

Sengun's game needs a lot of work. I don't care about a regular season all-star appearance.

Houston is a solid defensive team and does have resilience. But without that one closer, it’s hard to pick them over Steph Curry and Jimmy Butler

I mean he's right, he's a terrible finisher, which cannot happen with his game.

Midgets are incapable of playing this level of basketball.

They can only foul.

I'm apparently watching a different game as he's single handedly keeping them in the game lol.

I'm sure he is, but one game doesn't change a trend. He had a 54.5 TS% in the regular season and was at 50.3 TS% in the playoffs before today. For a guy who plays near the rim that's HORRENDOUS.

If it weren’t for Sengun, game would’ve prolly gotten out of hand.
