Can we get to 50 in the first quarter?

Of course I missed the start of the game and turn it on when we're up 20.

Now sloppy offense and forced shots. I get the Rockets are small and spreading the floor, but Ayton's gotta stay at the rim defensively.

Did we not hit 48 in the 3rd Q of the Dallas game?

Yes, it's our season-high for a first quarter.

Suns always piss away leads in transition

Really lazy getting back after a miss

As usual Monty waits too long before calling a time out.

Monty a bit slow to call time out as they went on that run.

Ayton with 6 points and 2 rebounds and the biggest player on the court for Houston this game is 6ft6. If you can't dominate this game, you clearly don't have what it takes at all. Pathetic.
What is smallball? I play basketball. I'm not a regular big man. I can switch from the center to the guards. The game is evolving. I'd be dominAyton if the WNBA would let me in. - Ayton

Monty should've called the TO sooner to stop the Rockets' run, should've tried some zone sooner, should've doubled Harden sooner. The doubling worked at the end of the half and we were able to get some stops and make some baskets.

I wish we posted up Ayton the way we post up Diallo. Or maybe I wish Ayton posted the way Diallo posts up.
