That was a tough watch. 30% shooting? 😭
Looks like last year’s playoff team. 😂
Rockets have depended too much on KD all season. it bit them hard with him out.
Before you guys send hate towards Sengun remember you aren’t just attacking a HOF player but a father, a husband, and a Turk. One bad game shouldn’t take away what he’s brought to this franchise and we should be looking forward to seeing him continue to lead our Rockets!
They are done
Sengun overrated bigtime
Lebron is just too good for us he’s terrifying 😢
Where’s the other guy that said this would be a cake walk?
I think its all rigged KD'S INJURY IS ALL BS IN MY OPINION. They had to fabricate a reason for the lakers to win.
Put this entire organization on a rudderless boat and shove them out to sea. After a rebuild they’re still Luke warm dog shit. I’m tired of watching them. They’re an embarrassment.
No true pg. Just scrappy basketball.
GM and Coach gotta go.
Man, Sengun , Sheppard, and Smith wet the bed. Not gonna win when they shoot a combined 17/53.
At the end of the day you have to be able to score. KD is the only one that knows how to on a regular basis.
The team is too one dimensional. Most of the players are similar prototypes, long range defenders who can't shoot or score offensively. Sengun is also a big problem, he's too soft, clumsy, slow and unathletic, it's very easy to shut Sengun down by putting a much quicker and more athletic defender on him because he moves like he's in quicksand. Sengun doesn't dunk often and throws up a bunch of floaters, which are easy to block. The team is very easy to guard, all you have to do is play zone on Thompson and Sengun.
Well…kd is needed and was missed, also NO FRED, Rockets trade away green and dillon for kd offense efficiency and it goes to show how we need a shooter.
Ime has no idea what to do with these guys. The ingredients are there. He can't cook.
At least on offense.
The Rockets have 0 good young players to build a championship winning team with.
KD was speaking facts on his burner 😂
Sengun, Amen & Jabari can't shoot to save their lives. TRASH
