WE MAY NEVER LOSE AGAIN
Fred Van Thrleet
ME AND JALEN 🧱🧱🧱🧱🧱 A WHOLE LOT OF IDIOTS
CONGRATS TO JOKIC FOR PUTTING UP SUCH SOLID NUMBERS AGAINST THE BEST CENTER IN THE LEAGUE
BARI IS SO IMPRESSIVE. NONE OF THE GAME IS CATERED TO HIM BUT HE FINDS WAYS TO GET BUCKETS AND MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
FVV QUIETLY RUNNING THE SHOW TO NEAR PERFECTION
TATE AND TARI ARE THE NEW DOGG POUND
SO COOL OVER THE HOLIDAYS WHEN I GET TO SEE MY COOL UNCLE JEFF
THESE ARE YOUR CHAMPS? LIGHT WORK
THIS SEASON IS SO MUCH BETTER THAN I THOUGHT IT WOULD BE. WE’RE SO AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. WOW.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING, ROCKETS FANS
GAMECUBE. NINTENDO.
YOUR HOUSTON ROCKETS ARE 8-0 IN GAMES THEY SCORE MORE THAN THEIR OPPONENTS
luv da rockets
Good win.
Why Jokic still try to score? Why Sengun threw up that last shot?
You guys owe Jalen an apology
​
WE ARE GOING TO BE JUST FINE 🚀
WE STREAKING AGAIN
25/5/2
21/13/8
16/14/1
This is what you want from your 3 franchise cornerstones
Sengun owns Jokic
Why did Sengun even take that last 3pt shot for?
Yall my wife is mad at me because I get too loud when the rockets play 😂😭
Trade Jalen! Start Tari over Bari!!
Smh you silly fools
“We goin to Vegas.”
-Alperen Sengun, 2023
Jabari quietly had probably his best game of the season. 16 points on only 9 shots and 14 rebounds, including 3 offensive
Fuck all you weirdos who hate on your own team and nitpick every single mistake 🙂
Thank goodness the refs were with us tonight! I loved the continued adjustments and melding!
Alpi with 42:48.. against best player in the world. fatigue must be overwhelming for him. hence the turnovers and some questionable decisions down to the wire.
Bari had an sneaky great game. So happy for the guy after his rough start
“Wahh trade jalen wahhh”
Why are we first in the tournament standings over NO, when they have a better pt differential? Isn’t that the tie breaker?
If Pels lose to Clips & we beat the (FT)Mavs on Tue, we win our IST group.
If Pels win, then we need to beat the (FT)Mavs AND have a higher win differential.
Aaron Gordon may never make a shot ever again
We got to show some love to Bari man, he is playing with his head down and doing the small things to male a difference.
Alpi in a less effficient day due to fatigue and defending Jokic but still with monster stats.
And Jalen, back to being an explosive scorer
This team shows growth in all the right areas
If tari didn’t throw the dumb pass at the end of 3rd quarter against clippers, PG doesn’t hit the buzzer beating 3, we probably win that game and be 3-0, having already clinched the division in the tournament 🙁 lol

Solid all around game. Absolutely love the ball movement and team effort on defense. It’s just fun watching rockets basketball again
This sub doesn’t understand how important JG panning out is to this team’s future. He’s gonna come in really handy in the playoffs. Got us out of a scoring slump in the last 2 games 💪
UDOKA is going to be unanimous coach of the year. Jalen Green always has that sky high potential and Sengun is definitely making the all star team.
If Alperen Sengun has a million number of fans i am one of them 🙋🏻.
If Alperen Sengun has ten fans i am one of them.
If Alperen Sengun has only one fan then that is me 🙋🏼🙋🏽🙋🏾.
If Alperen Sengun has no fans, that means i am no more on the earth 😢.
If the world is against Alperen Sengun, i am against the world ❌🌍☄️.
Team saw that bullshit-ahh post on the NBA sub talkin bout “Rockets will never be competitive and title contenders, OKC/whoever better”, and hit em wit the “STOP THE CAP ⛔️🧢”
HIM-P was HIM again. Jalen cookin up something special. Team BALLIN.
FTM 🐎🔫, we goin to Vegas. 🚀🚀🚀
P.S. Please play like this against the w*rriors next time.
Lmao at FVV being “overpaid”
Dude has had tremendous impact

I won’t ever quit on these guys 🫡
Im starting to think this team might be good enough to win a playoff round. Sengun has the potential to be the best player on the floor in any 7 game series and we have a really deep supporting cast of guys including an alpha scorer in JG
FVV with that 11-1 AT ratio 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Jabari Smith thats it.
