The 76ers will barely be able to field a starting 5 tonight. They have 11 players out with injury. Rockets are a 16.5 point favorite.Ā 

Well, damn.

Got 1985 Villanovaā€™d tonight. A bunch of G Leaguers played out of their minds and we got beat.
Ā 

The Mavs giving away Grimes for nothing is hilarious. Nico could be the worst GM in professional sports.Ā 
Ā 

edit: Not over yet.Ā

I guess this was supposed to be Sengun's off night, but he's back on the floor and contributing.Ā 

Yeah. Go play some.

Reed getting hurt might have been a blessing in disguise. Holiday is getting a lot of minutes now. Ime was never going to play a rookie in the playoffs, so might as well get Holiday ready.

Good defender. Good shooter. I think heā€™ll give us something when it really matters.Ā

I think this team embodies its coach more than any team Iā€™ve been a fan of (in all sports). Or, put another way, Ime has stamped his demeanor and attitude on his team more than any coach Iā€™ve ever seen.

Itā€™s badass. I donā€™t think we can win a championship this year, but goddamn this is fun. The present and future is very bright.Ā

I think winning a series would be a tremendous accomplishment, but most Rockets fans are likely thinking bigger like a Western Conference Finals appearance.Ā 
Ā 

I think much of it will depend on our draw. The 6-9 teams are pretty good and have given the Rockets problems. Weā€™d all be happy with beating the Warriors in Round 1. Starting my expectations there.Ā

A media member in Orlando mentioned to Tari Eason that a lot of members of this young Rockets team havenā€™t been to the playoffs, so people may doubt them.Ā 

Tari:Ā 
ā€œPeople hated Jesus, too.ā€Ā

i'm right there with you.Ā  no matter who we draw in round 1, it will be a tough series.Ā  outside of okc, i think anyone who makes the playoffs in the west can beat any of the other teams.Ā  should be a very fun first round in the west.

Matt Thomasā€™ sidekick said recently the Rockets have a ā€œpopular Miami strip club problemā€ and Matt didnā€™t correct him. Hopefully they got to bed early last night.Ā
