    It was fun to see our shots finally falling.

    Anderson was amazing tonight. If we can get that consistently from him that will be huge going forward.

  2. horse_renoir13

    Needed that “get right” win to re-adjust

  3. martintee

    Yeah it’s a fun win and everyone showed out, but it’s also the Rockets.

  4. bigticket179

    Those dunks by Ant and Big Mac were beautiful.

  5. ghost91372

    Turns out playing the Rockets instead of the suns or the bucks makes your team look better

  6. Offense is way more fun when all the shots go in

  7. FlyingScissor

    It’s definitely the rockets. 24 turnovers would be a disaster against a good team. Thank goodness they hit their shots.

  8. Sam7sung

    Good win. Kyle Anderson is so fun to watch. It’s like having a bigger JMac out there

  9. srry_didnt_hear_you

    I like how we’re all so “it’s the rockets” that there’s barely any comments in here 5 minutes in lol

    Anywho, nice little rebound game that didn’t really change much I feel like. Still want JMac over D’Lo, and I’m hoping Prince and Naz are okay.

    Really glad Prince is there to keep our egos in check. Kyle Anderson is great on the floor, too. That combo with slowmo and JMac was really fun

  10. Far-Yak-4231

    A win that if we didn’t win, I would have started tossing my shit around like an ape in heat – but glad we have one to get next week going right

    Just a reminder that the only game that this 1-9 Rockets team have won was against a Jazz team playing a back to back on the road, after going to overtime in the 2 previous games *and* playing the 4th game in a span of 6 days.

    To add a little perspective.

  12. Houston is terrible defensively but i hope the guys got a confidence boost

  13. Anyone notice how Nowell is right back to the shit 15s again?

    Good look signing that dude.
