    This takes a toll on a vet. I've always said EG plays to win. Tough nosed defense, trys to take it to the bucket, sometimes he gets hot. The results aren't always there but his heart was in it.

    Not gonna lie, before the play when Hollins was talking about needing to go with gordon i actually shouted "fucc no"...

    And then the last two plays he turned it over with his bad handle and missed a layup and acted like he was fouled. Two staples of his game.

    I actually would have preferred kpj get at least one of those opportunities.

    Great post….couldn’t have said it better! He always seems to dribble off his foot at clutch moments. His turnover percentage goes up 100% at game deciding moments. This is what happens when you don’t have a legit pg on the court at game end.

    No but for real, did Gordon really get the last 2 shots by design? That's the dumbest thing Silas has done, which frankly is impressive.

    Gotta love it. Paolo made a podcast with a rapist and now he’s gonna be banned from Rockets games.

    To be fair to EG, he's probably just annoyed that every other tweet on his timeline is Paolo or that Will guy, and Twitter does this thing now where it's like a broken record, and repeats tweets from these guys over and over again. I have no ill will towards these guys at all, and props to them for figuring out how to manipulate the Twitter algorithm, but I had to block them because it was so over the top even though I never liked a single Tweet of theirs.

    So I understand why EG would respond to this tweet, and this poster. Again, probably nothing personal about it, but that's the price Paolo has paid for figuring out how to fool the algorithm to force your tweets on everyone who follows anything to do with the Houston Rockets.

    FYI - Paolo's story about coming over last season to see a Rockets game in person and meeting the players was pretty cool. Also... I'll partially excuse Elon's bizarre conspiracy theory peddling if he fixes this issue which makes Twitter damn near intolerable. Any Rockets fan is a friend to me, but I don't need to see every tweet you put out there about the Rockets 18 times.

    The guy can crack the Twitter algorithm but he can't do a basic search to check someone's criminal record??

    Also - How did I miss this story? Must have been in the dog days of NBA summer.

    I'm interested to know if there is a story behind these select few "Rockets fans" who just got blasted on the scene in one year out of nowhere because Twitter jammed every tweet down our throats. Is there a story behind that? That's a conspiracy theory I might actually buy.

    I too find this curious. You'd swear that it's just these 4 bozos that cover the Rockets. Though I'm finding this happening on other platforms as well.

    why is any of this relevant?

    Ninety percent of the posters here say far worse about the team and Ego. Only difference is he did it in a medium that let Gordon talk back.

    Especially now that twitter has been freed by Musk, Gordon can say whatever he wants....

    I mean, sure Eric Gordon didn't like it.... but was he wrong?

    Creating multiple plays at the end of the game for Gordon was basically intentional tanking.
