Guess the refs thought they'd give us a freebie after the last two games, lol.

I saw that live, and thought maybe it was a makeup play :lol: I was surprised the rockets bench wasn’t going crazy

Nope. They will continue to hope they turn it around.

This looked like Green’s fault to me. He needed to follow his man out to the perimeter but switches to the corner leaving Giannis having to switch off Sengun to cover the open three.

Was a nice play from Houston. Green overthought it.

I think they were suppose to switch , if you look after the game ended Giannis makes a move to someone to come in, dunno.


From what it looked is that Giannis switched to guard a shooter?

It was so weird, beginning i thought Giannis got pushed lmao


Zach Harper was saying that AJ Green screwed up the switch and it just cascaded from there and Giannis had to make a call between covering Jalen Green and covering Sengun. If that's true, Giannis made the wrong call.

Phew , we got lucky for once.

After the BS calls on last games, il take it

If Giannis picked up the out of bounds foot before he touched the ball he was good... not sure that happened tho

Dame was distributing well all game and getting to the rim when he could, probably some fouls left 9n the whistle there too, but man this dude needs to make a three sometime soon. He was being hunted hard defensively even if Houston didn't capitalize too much.

The was a super frustrating Giannis game. Fell in love with the jumper early (don't care what his season stats are) and then his post game was being swarmed all over by Houston. His effort on the defensive end was abysmal for most of the game, maybe he's tired but not really an excuse, has been lackluster most of the season.

Bobby was great early, reverted back later, thank god Brook wasn't out for extended time otherwise we were screwed.

Delon, Trent and AJ were great. Delon is a huge disruptor defensively, Trent finding his shot and competing defensively was big and AJ defended extremely well and had the nuts to hit a huge shot after a rough shooting stretch.

Brook was an absolute monster.

I still don't know what Doc does or what in the world our schemes are supposed to be.

Brook played 40 minutes and brother I don't know how he does it. We rely on him to still be good way too much.

Boy, I was wrong AGAIN on Brook, when he went out with potential injury, I realized how much we really need him

And it seems that the more players we have available, the harder it is to understand. It gets more confusing watching us with all of our stars out there than it does when it's just Giannis on the floor. I don't know that Doc has a plan.

Great game. But I’m still calling on a Dame for Fred VanVleet and Eason trade. Houston might hang up. Don’t know.

Green is in the spot to cover the corner and deny the pass. If Green is calling switch there, it shouldn't be an issue.... but I dunno what the plan was.

Kind of wish Sengun had gotten enough of the ball to put it up so that Andre could beat it off the backboard.

Emphatically.
