the real reason rockets won trailing by 5 with less than 2 min left: pelican caused 4 turnovers.
Sengun was doing it all.. just have to nail those free throws .. also seems like a good fit for brooks
Steady Freddy
I like the red court
This βchinaβ talk on Brooks is blasphemous. This man deserves a spot on any NBA team easily, maybe not a starter for every team but heβs a legit NBA playerβ¦..and Iβm not even a fan.
Sengun missing those FTs is ridiculous
Awfull floor color, a disgrace . Watch european courts, they have style and taste.
I will never understand the hate on Dillon Brooks and Fred VanVleet. 2 Amazing signings in FA.
Of course they can't match our greatest signing this offseason… Ime Udoka.
For some reason, before the season even started i kinda knew the Rockets was gonna be good based off their FA signings
Rockets just standing around
Need to be setting off ball screens to get dudes open
Don't just stand there with your hand open waiting to catch the ball ya bums
Watch Golden State play offense
Larry nance jr a numbskull
Ref grew up in Houston or got money on the game
NBA double dipping on vid views while giving away final scores. I Might like this new Wild Endings if you didn't spoil things.
Freddy-V betting on himself and winning at life #WeTheNorth
Man that was ugly to watch for the pelicans. Complete fumble
We would've lost this one last season, that's the main reason why our young players are playing so hard this season. π Go Rockets!!
Ingram is a brick from three im sorryπππ
Dont put the score in the thumbnail
The Rockets are pretty fun
Undrafted van doig his things backing his bag
