November 21, 20241 yr Went last night. Shit was empty in a lot of the upper deck. People got to start getting on board with this team.  Pretty slow start by both teams, but the Rockets blew it up. Got to see Carlisle lose his shit a few times which is always good times.  Pacers have a blonde assistant coach woman who is 50 yrs old that I would dick down.  I think that may be the first team in the history of the NBA to start a Longhorn and Aggie at same time. (Unless Deandre Jordan ever started with KD in Brooklyn....probably missing some others, but I don't think it happens often)
November 22, 20241 yr I'm not going to lie I did not have the Rockets having the 6th best winning% in the entire NBA after 20% of the season.

November 23, 20241 yr The low 3pt % is becoming their superpower. They don’t need it to win or dominate, and when they are hot they are eliteÂ
November 23, 20241 yr so i don't even know how much i care about the nba cup but it feels like the Rockets are going to be guaranteed to win their group if they win one more game thanks to their massive lead in point differential:
November 23, 20241 yr Am I reading this right? They play against Portland twice in a row as a back to back? It's nice that it's at home, but I don't think I have ever seen that before. Just an unusual schedule choice.Â

It's the NBA's stupid way of cutting down on traveling.

Yeah I see that, but there was 1 day rest between the SA games. A back to back in the same city with the same opponent is odd. I think it's good to cut down on traveling, but it would be a lot smarter to designate a "home week" of hosting 3-4 games, and an "Away week" of travel if they want to do that. The Spurs get to do 3 weeks of away games during their Rodeo Road trip, I'm sure other teams could plan something similar to help balance the schedule.
November 23, 20241 yr Nba is ridiculous. Eliminate back to backs. Have the finals in july with zero competition.  They are stupid fucks
November 24, 20241 yr I, for one, would like the NBA Cup to go the way of the woolly mammoth. It's import Euro trash.
November 24, 20241 yr I fucking wasted 2 1/2 hours of my life to watch FVV throw up a nonsense runner 3pt with plenty of time left. Someone kick him in the balls
November 24, 20241 yr Then dumbass gets tossed and almost makes contact with ref by pointing in his face saying "You a bitch" lol

The other 3 teams are all fucked if Houston wins another and they will clinch if they beat Minnesota. With all that said I really think the gimmick is dumb
November 27, 20241 yr Author Jabari playing like the 3rd pick in the draft offensively and defensively. Dillon and FVV have also had great 1st halves.

Dillon and FVV have also had great 1st halves. didn't tune in until the last few minutes, but was planning on mentioning how Jabari had a very nice end to the half. Glad to see it was more than even that.
November 27, 20241 yr Reed is clueless. He needs to figure out he ain't playing Shithole State anymore and can't half ass shit.
November 27, 20241 yr Another shitty game for Jalen Green, the slump continues, and the Rockets fall in love with the 3 point line. Starting 12-22, then going 2-12 as the Timberwolves come back to take the lead. Tied up with 28 seconds to go. Edited November 27, 20241 yr by HtownHorn
November 27, 20241 yr What a move by Sengun, Rockets up 4 in OT. 11-0 run as the Rockets take command in OT, stopped settling for 3's and attack Gobert in the paint. Edited November 27, 20241 yr by HtownHorn
November 27, 20241 yr This team plays hard man; great job after things looked bleak with about 90 seconds left…
November 27, 20241 yr Author What a gutsy, playoff type win on the road. The way the Rockets closed out that game on both ends of the court was a thing of beauty. All that is missing is consistent production from the 2.
November 27, 20241 yr Watching this squad turn defense into offense might be my favorite thing to watch in basketball since 1995. Sengun doing dad driveway shit is a close second.
November 27, 20241 yr Just now, Scraps said: That was a fun game to watch. it was even from the losing end.  dilly was the spark  plug and Finch tucked his balls in OT instead of playing the rookie who was +28. instead Jaden Mcdaniels missed about 8 shots. Â
November 27, 20241 yr awesome fucking win. i thought they were toast late in the fourth quarter. ballsy effort to get that one back after giving it away.
November 27, 20241 yr Well I guess if you have to play back to backs on the road in different cities then going to Philly with Embiid, George, & Lowery out is about the best draw you can get in 2024-25.
