    There was a stat, something like Alp was scoring 18 in Rockets wins and 23 in loses.

    He scored 17 and we won. Interesting.

    our guys are gonna have to work on their flopping and EG yells because these refs don’t call sh*t for us, but then the other team will be living at the line like they just signed a 12 month lease…

    Jokic commits 2 obvious fouls right in front of the ref, but his eyes are taped closed

    Murray was getting away with aggravated assault on FVV

    one might say it was just home cooking for the Nuggets, but we get treated this way no matter if we’re at TC or on the road

    The Rockets win without a single field goal made in the last 8:26 minutes of the game.

    Aaron was +19 in 16 minutes.

    Player of the game.

    Looks like we were the butt end of scheduling priority.
    Scheduler: “Hey guys seems like we gonna have problem with scheduling due to in-season.”

    Head NBA: “Put some bottom tier team on a long off-day and back to back games to make it work. They gonna stink anyway.”

    Scheduler : “ Okay I got Spurs, Blazers and Rockets in those scheduling sir.”

    Head NBA: “Spurs got Wemby so no they’re our prime tier and Blazers got Scoot!”

    Scheduler: “ F#$& it Rockets it is…”

    Was ripping down every rebound again too. That was very strange coaching. Gave me flashbacks to a certain Nice Guy

    Long time ago. The last 8 minutes lasted a century.

    Did he really though? He was on the bench laughing with the rest of the guys with 8:46 to go, thinking the night was over for him. Jokic comes in and there is still no Alpi. Obviously coach is not taking the potential threat of losing a 24pt lead seriously. Jokic then goes on a run by himself with 6 consecutive points before Alpi checks back in.
    Sengun took and bricked 3 shots, 1 where Joker held him on the hip, the third one he drove to the basket nearly tackled and no whistle. The entire team was just running around. They weren't looking for him
    Lastly, Sengun kept the ball alive on another Rocket miss, flopped and drew the whistle, only to miss the free throws. Which drove some of you alpi doubters mad.

    But Lessons can be learned here. The team went Oberyn. Instead of giving a speech to the Mountain just cut off his head.

    I think you're missing the word "average" around those numbers. Really not that interesting, my friend.
