Hot take, Jalen is fouled almost every possession
Sengun ain't it
the betting house mafia
Sengun has been fouled every time he approaches the basket and takes a shot, and at the same time, Kings get very cheap fouls.
I belive for years houston getting butchered by refs here and there. First time i see jackson talks about it. My take in general,
Ime , I like how he improved teams defensive abilities but still , offensively lacking and heavily depending on alpy. When others defend alpy good or he sits on bench we struggle. I also like he stand by his player eventho both ejected. His rotations and timings still question mark to me. And keeps alpy too long on the bench always. First half he didnt let alpy back to game and its ended 55-54? Easily could go 10+ points diff with kings.
Fred , since day one he changed alot for rockets positively but man he is so inconsistent. One game like all star level next game he plays like rookie. 1/10 three points i can understand but , 1AST in 38mins? Sry , unacceptable. He needs better vision. Thats not a one man show.
Terror twins , Amen was bad against kings but he is ok in general. But tari is another story. Shoots can miss why not but those missing layups.. come on man. I think jackson you jinxed terror twins there is no other explanation
Bari , inconsistent as usual. one day good one day bad.
Jalen , Another good game by jalen. Yet he dont get ball so much. They should give him a chance in important mins. They give the ball to amen or tari to 3pt shoot but not considering jalen is better option to consider?
Dillon , inconsistent like others. So emotional. If things not go like how he wants he losing it. Fights , fouls etc. Need better dillon than that.
Adams , I still think when alpy on the bench rather get bari to 5 instead of adams tbh.
Aaron holiday , this guy deserve more time.
Coach Udoka will probably be fined but good for him speaking up anyway.
*The referee issue is not about WHINING, it is important because with bad decisions all the time the oppenent is encouraged to turn into 89 Pistons. So Udoka is right with his attitude, if he is fined this must be compansated by Houston management.
** Shooting coach ASAP, you can't be physical all the times, even Amen and Tari can get tired. Fix this issue, other teams shoot and wait play-offs to hustle, get physical. With this state of mind injuries are on the way and season will go to thrash. It would be sad i f it happens. This team deserves better season finish.
Rockets played a good game all around, I think Ime went away from the hot hand this game … Sabonis > Sengun for me
I’m not a rockets fan but I been watching a lot of the Rockets games and you can clearly see the Refs being one sided.
The kings definitely earned the win, we looked lethargic as hell and theyre very talented n were crazy motivared. None of that changes how unacceptable the refs behavior was
If the ref call every foul the fan would complain there are too many foul calls and not enough basketball plays
What about out of bound position which Amen did not touch? SHAME!!!
You touched on everything I was thinking. The refs, Kings shooting, Senguin's defense, Jalen getting subbed out when I was feeling it and Terror Twins struggles. We need a backup center though or Uncle Jeff needs some minutes. He has more in the tank than Adams.
Good one. Terror twins played like the nightmare twins.😅
Vegas knows something we don't, that's all i am gonna say, fuck silver fuck NBA
The REFs were against the Rockets no doubt! They did not call it both ways and favored the Kings! It felt like they had money 💰 on SAC.
Just take the L guys…geeze. Stop 😥
Oh……and LIGHT THE BEAM BABY
Tari pulled a Vernon Maxwell?
I saw a fight outside the arena between 2 rockets fans and some kings fans
When ime challenged Amen's out of bounce play, i knew the refs were on some b.s…the king's commentators were fairly disingenuous.

#10 referee was the worst referee I've seen in a while. I'm not even a Rockets fan and he made me throw my remote in the 3rd quarter. They called 7 fouls against the Rockets in less than 5 minutes in the beginning of the 3rd. It was sickening.
Poor officiating. But the Rockets need a good back up big. Adams have been poor. How can an undrafted G-League player Isaac Jones dominate him in the post.
Everyone will understand that the reaction of Udoka was a wise decision rather than emotional. He did this to draw attention to a thing that will determine his teams success. "We don't want to play "fixed games". We are putting a lot of effort to be successfull and we can't tolerate this kind of attitude from refs." That was the message. Alperen's ejection is the same, not emotional but wise, they wanted to point out that something went terribly wrong in the game. Everyone will understand in time.
I am so "sick" about the Rockets BITCHING about the refereeing. FOULS called ; HOU-23 / SAC-20. FTA; HOU 21 / SAC 20. What are we talking about? HOU shot 14 more FT against OKC in a 3 pt win.I didn't see OKC coach throwing a hissy fit and getting ejected. "Open your damn eyes". 15 "straight" made shots. How about play some damn defense.
Refs set the tone earlier when they were touching up Dillon for 2 hands etc and forced a long sit. Guys always wanting to trade him, but Dillon is a big part of Ime's strat and he needed that strength, aggression but the refs tied our hands on top of showing up Ime at the end.
There were absolutely "basketball reasons" we failed but the bad calls were affecting the rest of the game. The team was obviously frustrated and you could tell they kinda felt like, "What am I supposed to do? How am I supposed to defend? Can I set a screen?"
The same kind of thing happened with the refs down the stretch in the OKC game but they kept their mental state in tact.
Trump: On January 20, those migrants and referees will leave
respect to you sir. you called out exactly what happened starting 7:53. i recommend everybody to (re-)listen to that statement.
The game shows officiating can determine a winner when "needed", for example, if it doesn't make sense to have Rockets win the title if it came down to it, they won't be able to, or when betting "gods" do not want them to win. Previous game, Alpi was literally smacked in the face in a position where the aggressor was not even dealing with the ball, this must have sent a message to Detroit defense, so they weren't shy when they almost took Jalen's eye out. Worse, Detroit side announcers totally normalized that egregious behaviour by claiming the defence made a statement (in a praising way).
