Durant & Rockets DISASTER as Timberwolves win wild & important game | NBA Reaction

1. The culture in Houston was ruined when KD came there. Udoka doesn’t know how to create team chemistry and it shows from the bench. The mentality “I just wanna hoop” from KD doesn’t work anymore

2. Scott Foster should not be allowed to officiate games in a league that takes itself seriously. Even if he isn't corrupt (which he is) there is no impartiality to what he does. He holds massive grudges. He punishes players and fans in the arena for pushing back on his authority. He is everything you don't want in a official.

3. I just find it hilarious how literally every single time KD joins another team, literally every network and commentator goes crazy and immediately claims that said team is an immediate title contender / favorite just based off his sheer presence alone.

   And then slowly but surely, we get to see all these situations come apart and completely unravel every single time like clock work. It’s been 8 years and he STILL hasn’t won a damn thing outside of GSW 😂

4. Funny how warriors wanted kd over jimmy. Jimmy in my opinion was is better for what they needed. KD is obviously not the ball handler/ decision maker Jimmy is. Warriors needed a calming force.

5. Omg. Usually it’s women calling in asking about how to navigate issues with the husbands that are lazy or not providers. In a situation like this, my heart just breaks for him. What the heck?

6. Why do people still keep believing that Durant going to a team is going to make them a contender? I just don't get it. Houston doesn't strike me as any more of a contender than they were last year. Just like Brooklyn wasn't any more of a contender with Durant. Just like Phoenix wasn't any more of a contender with Durant. How many times does this failed 'experiment' have to be repeated until front offices and fan bases wake up?

7. Wild game

8. The Rockets bench scoorde 20pts in 2 games!! Tari and DFS are they really NBA players? i love kd but, Kds a 19 year vet and still can’t handle double teams…continues to make the same mistakes and fails to pass the ball well when pressured by two defenders, and that's where most of his turnovers come from all those years, i mean u check your own videos mistake with the coaching staff and still make the same mistake next game? someone needs to call them out in locker room is not normaal this.

9. and conversely the Lakers are the best team for the Rockets to play.

10. Hahahaha KD deserves this loss

11. Gobert absolutely choked the MN lead away.

12. Dude. Your analysis has really gotten much much better from last year. I totally agree with your Houston takes, totally agree with your lakers wolves potential series takes. Beyond how much better the Lakers chemistry has gotten, you also have guys that will be out for revenge, namely, Luka. But even AR will want to show up better as a 2nd/3rd option and specifically as an initiator, which is why LA struggled last year against good defenses, not enough ball handling and playmakers.

13. Game was weird at the end cause of Scott foster

14. "And i turn of the game…again." lol

15. Kd should sign with timberwolves. ..now smh

16. You might’ve missed that Randle shoulda went to the FT line with prolly 0.3 secs left at the end of regulation when the game was tied, KD got some of his arm on the lay up attempt. No call, I’m still waiting on the L2m report. But what’s worse is that they’ve called that all game in favor of Houston and even called it at the end of OT to give KD fts. Ball don’t lie baby!

17. The Wolves made that comeback without Ant, Ayo Naz, Rudy or Jaden.

18. Rockets defense was helped by Jaden playing injured

19. Lakers playing Houston in rd 1 would be ideal. Lakers are guaranteed to beat the rockets. Something is missing with Houston including two of their starters. Laker still beat Minnesota this year.

20. Do you lay much of the Rocket's low hoops IQ on the coaching?

21. I turned it off after Naz Reid's ejection. Scott Foster and his crew weren't even trying hide their impartiality. I woke up this morning expecting to see a 125-100 Rockets win, not a 110-108 Wolves win. I had to watch the recap to realize ESPN's box score wasn't a misprint.

22. Lol. You said the exact same thing last year about Wolves/Lakers. Come on man.

23. And then Ime elects to play TATE instead of REED down the stretch. Ime makes terrible decisions every game.

24. Ya don’t understand how many wolves fan left the game because of Naz Reid ejection, then KD hit a 3 in our face. The hope was gone, then somehow the wolves persevered to beat Scott Foster 😭

25. I already knew you were cool Jason but the HIMYM reference bumped you up a notch haha keep up the great work 👍🏼

26. Game of the year imo

27. Scott foster, Jayden mcdaniels knocking knees, and Randle going full rhino in regulation led this game into overtime

28. And what makes a team not smart enough?

29. The Rockets looked like the best team in the world because they were playing 7 on 5 with Foster, and to a lesser but meaningful extent, Acosta doing everything in their power to get the Rockets across the finish line. Glossing over that by giving quick mention to Rudy's 6th foul and the Naz ejection really minimizes the fuckery that was going on their. The other reason things fell apart for the Wolves defensively at the end of the 4th was Jaden getting injured and Finch not pulling him when it was obvious he could not move at all. That's why KD started getting free for poster dunks and getting shots off. He didn't just suddenly find the range, Jaden couldn't play defense anymore for like 5 possessions. Anyways, Scott Foster needs to be investigated. By the NBA, but also probably the FBI.

30. What the hell! I stopped watching when the rockets were up double digits in ot.

31. Yall wont talk about durant. Stop the cap. Hes the problem

32. How I met my mother is one of my favorite shows bro 😂

33. Watched the whole game…..and all i have to say it was a Scott Foster fest hahaha……credits to the timberwolves for keeping their cool and win the game

34. What is the thought on the Randel flagrant foul around the 4 minute mark in the 4th. It was a big collision. But I'm not sure how Foster expects a 240 lbs brick of a human to stop within a step when trying to chase over a screen. I'm with Finch, charge, sure. But I've never seen that called as an F1

35. The only reason the Rockets made their comeback that took the Wolves to overtime was because Jaden was playing injured.

36. I’m actually really surprised no one really talks about the horrible body language the rockets have been showing. Something’s up with that team.. the chemistry isn’t there.
