Welp. Great season guys. Don’t know how I thought it could end any other way #rockets #nbasky

Would roll with Fred, Amen, Jabari, Sengun and Adams for the whole 4Q

JABARIIIIIIIIIII πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€

If Houston beats Golden State tonight with Tony Brothers reffing it means the NBA is officially entering a new era with a new generation of stars like Thompson and Edwards. But I’m guessing they really want to see another round of Steph Curry ratings. About to learn #nbasky

Ime is absolutely giddy by Ime standards in this post game interview #rockets #nbasky

Life update: bottling #warriors fan tears to stay hydrated in the morning #rockets #nbasky

The net just snaps a little louder when Steven Adams hits a free throw #rockets #nbasky

Sucks that Alpi couldn’t hang on to the ball on that spin move but the presence of mind to call timeout is impressive

Fred. Van. Vleet Pew pew pew πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€

Steve Kerr: "Defend without fouling" At that exact millisecond: 4 point play for Fred #NBAsky

Steven A Smith takes shots at Jalen Green like that man lost him money #nbasky #rockets

A lineup of Fred, Amen, Tari, Bari, Adams when Fred has it going is a really good look #rockets #nbasky

Literally any other player would be tossed for smacking his opponent in the face and then harassing the ref for a solid minute afterward. But Draymond gets his own rule book. What a farce #NBAsky

Gonna have to beat the Warriors, the crowd, the refs and the ratings to win tonight. I still believe in these guys. Ride or die #rockets for 3 decades πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€I’m ready to drink some Warriors tears tonight and mow my lawn in the morning. Let’s ball πŸ€

Jalen Green let’s gooooooooooooooooo πŸš€ #rockets

Imagine the difference in conversation and career trajectory if Cam Whitmore had been drafted in the Silas era, or to a still-tanking team like Portland #nbasky

I wrote about Amen Thompson and his preposterous athleticism. www.theringer.com/2025/04/09/n...

Time for the Reed and Cam show for a few games πŸš€

3 points for Steph. The Amen Thompson DPOY convo needs to get serious πŸ”’

What a statement win against OKC. Let’s go #Rockets πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€

Did Jalen call glass on that?

Alpi with the exclamation point πŸ”¨β—οΈ

Within a week, we’ve seen Amen Thompson block SGA and Luka on late-game iso plays. Dude is unreal πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€πŸš€ #rockets

Alpi’s combination of size and handles is unreal #rockets

If that was a foul on SGA at the end of the 3rd, Jalen and Alpi should get +\- 20 foul calls in the 4th #rockets

Jabari has a knack for what seem like *loud* rebounds. The ones where four guys are jostling for it and he comes out with it two-handed, elbows out. Those are momentum plays #rockets

Related prediction: the most difficult decision the front office will have to make in the next two years will be between Amen Thompson and Alpi. Unless one of them becomes a threat from three, neither will hit their potential while playing together. The choice will be Amen because defense #rockets

The β€œdouble big” pairing of Sengun and Adams is an acknowledgment of what has always been true: Sengun is a dominant traditional PF. He’s been forced to play center because he can’t shoot threes. Pair him with a center who can shoot and he’ll find his ceiling #Rockets

In a pre-analytics NBA, Jalen Green would be a top 5 star. Electrifying to watch when he has it going. Based on pure aesthetics, my favorite #Rockets player to watch since Hakeem πŸš€

With the NBA’s stars dropping left and right due to injury, and Wemby out for the season, maybe someone can whisper to Adam Silver that when Jalen Green gets laid out on drives they should call it a foul

I’m so happy πŸš€
