Payne needs to play more in this game. The team comes alive when he's running the show...

Book was having a good half til the last couple mins there again letting physical play or a missed call get him annoyed
Those antics bother me more than if he misses, FTs or has turnovers smh
No he wasn’t. He has 6 fucking turnovers. Most of them from playing stupid.

I’m over the Book-Paul iso duo. Get off each other’s dicks and play the fucking system.


Ayton played an outstanding first half. Cam Payne was solid. Everybody else sucked.

I’m not looking at numbers. I’m looking at how they looked, did they play within the system and in rhythm or did they just get lucky for a night.

Mikal and Cam have lost their mojo. Really need them to be aggressive regardless of result. I need Mikal to shoot 10+ times per game and to work with the ball.

He should be the starting PG.

But Monty and the organization would never do that, and I can understand why.

Still new, but so far I think I like Cam better off the bench...but maybe that’s just because he’s struggled shooting tonight. Perhaps he has helped with spacing for Ayton, but I think Ayton has just been more engaged and aggressive the last two games.

I would have taken Wood sitting out the 2nd half, but glad that ankle turn is ok.

That ref really wanted to make up for the other ref calling that block out of bounds on Wood

A sloppy, disjointed first half. A lot of it had to do with the officiating. They've been inconsistent and made a few bad calls. I even fell asleep for a few minutes because of all the stoppages.
Damn bro you're not lying
The refs of to an even crazier start this quarter

This is the best our starters have looked together..still some sloppiness from Book/CP3 that needs to be cleaned up, but nice to see both of them hitting shots in the same game for once.

The Rockets look like five guys who just got matched-up together at the local gym.

Don’t really have a pg...using Oladipo and Tate...they need Wall back.

Is that Tony Brothers as the ref on the baseline on our basket? He seems to be very pro Rockets tonight..but whoever has the other baseline is pretty Pro Suns, so I guess it evens out.

Rockets making every 3 they put up in this 3rd qtr. But we are keeping our distance. Ayton looks great. He is just putting everything in around the basket. Getting lots of good entry passes.

It's a serious ref battle, which makes for a terrible viewing experience.
