Amen Thompson GOES OFF! | Rockets Dominate Suns Without KD | Are the Rockets for Real?
Last night the Houston Rockets put the NBA on notice again — no Kevin Durant, no Jalen Green, tough road environment… and they still handled the Phoenix Suns 114–92.
Amēn Thompson was the story of the night: 28 points, 8 assists, 7 rebounds, highlight plays all over the court, including a ridiculous transition reverse layup and a double-clutch dunk that had Rockets fans losing it.
Meanwhile, Dillon Brooks dropped 29 and looked unstoppable on both ends. Even former Rocket Dillon had fans feeling a little nostalgic after some tough shot-making.
In today’s show, we break down:
🔥 Amēn Thompson’s star-level performance
🔥 Why he’s been overlooked this season
🔥 How the Rockets’ defense became top-3 in the NBA
🔥 Reed Sheppard’s rough night — should fans worry?
🔥 Why the Rockets still need a point guard at the trade deadline
🔥 The team’s crazy efficiency: #1 in the NBA in 3-pt % and #1 in rebounding
🔥 Udoka’s culture shift & why Rockets basketball is FUN again
We also look ahead to Rockets vs Warriors and what this team might look like in future games without KD.
If you’re a Rockets fan, tap in — this might be the best basketball Houston has played in years.

Amen feels forgotten because his defense has fallen off a bit this year .. but he’ll be alright
watching the same game? reed initiated played point quite a bit this game. had some nice dishes out of the p&r
They play KD and Amen, which reduces the number of 3's taken since they both live in the paint
Amen will be the next #22 Clyde the Glide 2.0
Suns missing 4 of their 5 starters on a back to back I mean lol
