    As soon as was sent to the line you knew what would happen. They will send this to OT now.

    Sengun is hard to back as a "closer" because he isn't a great shooter

    I had zero doubt that lightweight would choke as usual.

    It's always a combination of

    1. Attempting a hotdogging dagger 3
    2. Missing bunnies and FTs

    that attribute to the Rockets choking away a lead or making butts clinch for fans in the clutch ...
