@randyragsdale23: “Houston did not allow Kevin Durant to get to the FT line in this game. I’m impressed.”
@traviscarter1023: “Houston snatched their souls at home damn this was savage.”
@iambarryallen: “Remember when they said Rockets should trade for Booker for Jalen Green lmao Jalen already surpassed him and JG actually plays defense.”
@randyragsdale23: “Is it just me or is the Houston Rocket’s offense starting to catch up to their defense? Defensively they played great tonight, but their offense was exceptional!”
@juqual78: “Amen Thompson 1 assist away from a triple double but THANKFULLY Ime pulled him instead of allowing him to get hurt in garbage time again.
Hell we had a Cam Whitmore sighting today! They got some of the 3rd and the ENTIRE fourth quarter as this game was over before the half.”
@em-performance2016: “Suns are an atrocious team. If you are going to miss the playoffs with the so called big 3, then trade both Booker and Durant, and start over. See if Beal leaves if you rebuild. This Frankenstein experiment is over.”
@ericmausbach1808: “How about the Rockets DON’T trade for Booker or KD, and just keep the picks. If the Rockets trade away any 1st rounders, they should trade away their own….keep those Suns picks.”
