  1. FuriousOrigin

    ZION PUT THAT TRADE REQUEST IN ! COME TO THE ROCKETS !

  2. baby_yoda_hunta

    Sengun is the motherfucking man. Thats my MVP/MIP!

  3. timeandscore

    Learning to win close ones down the stretch. Love it!

  4. inshamblesx

    sengun career best game in a road victory?

    im almost there

  5. Alll yall get the fukkkkkl in here!!!!! This one of the best wins ina long asss time!!!!!!!

  6. shotty293

    That was a fucking great game! Team effort for sure 👏👏

  7. baby_yoda_hunta

    Had a good chuckle at Zion putting his shoe back in when we had a fastbreak opportunity in the clutch 🤣

  8. LorelessFrog

    Man, I love this team. Extend alpi immediately!!!

  9. He’s letting the casuals know HE’S AN ALL STAR 😤😤😤😤

  10. satoran94

    yeah Alpi had 37/11/6 but what impressed me the most is 2 help defenses he had on Zion down the stretch when Rockets couldn’t stop him. And of course eating 2 seconds off the clock before that wide open dunk haha

  11. yesyepyea

    I hate to ride the J Green hate train but getting him off the court saved this game.

    Love watching Jabari quietly become a star.

  12. The development of apli and bari has been such a pleasure to watch

  13. TVjunkie15

    This team may not be the most talented team in the league but they got they got about 5 first team ALL DAWG guys. Sengun and Jabari are very clearly the future of this team. Both of them have All-Star potential.

    Sidenote: This game is more evidence to bring Jalen off the bench. Let him work himself out there and minimize his chances to make mistakes that affect wins

  14. nonetimeaccount

    PI MAMBA SENDS HIS REGARDS

    I KNOW ALPI IS THE HEADLINE BUT I’M GIVING THE GAME BALL TO THE BENCH MOB. THEY DIDN’T SIMPLY HOLD THE FORT DOWN TO START THE 4TH, THEY TIED THE GAME BACK UP. DEPTH DOES WONDERS.

    BUT AL FUCKING P THO! THE WIZARD IS AN ALL-STAR, TARI TOLD EM!

    TARI IS HOME!

    AMEN GETTING REAL MINUTES AND LEARNING REAL LESSONS. CAM, YOU UP NEXT.

    I WAS UNSURE ABOUT THE 3 BIG LINEUP DOWN THE STRETCH BUT IME ON HIS SHIT AND I LOVE IT.

    START. CALLING. PLAYS. FOR. BARI. DUDE IS 30 WAITING TO HAPPEN.

    ROAD WIN! WIN STREAK! LET’S FUCKING GOOOOOOOO!!!!

    GAMECUBE. NINTENDO.

  15. mesrepadam

    That was a masterpiece from sengun but i suppose bari will be an all star next year. His skillset and hunger of game is unbelieveble. He just needs to improve his body strength.

  16. NBACrkvice

    80+ FT% Gün is scary hours fr. That’s my FRANCHISE right there. Jabari’s been on some HIM shit recently, young core shaping up well.

  17. Man i loveeee our defensive energy!!! we really put the clamps on teams late in games and can really grind out victory’s with our defense. Such a joy to watch.

    And Sengun… mannn the gravity he commands and he just steadily keeps improving his weak points like today with some 3s and the FTs. Easily one of his best games of his career. Sky really is the limit for him

  18. ImDarkraii

    Shoutout to that starting unit for the 4th quarter with Amen, Tate, Jeff. I wasn’t confident in that specific lineup but those minutes were fucking huge

  19. What kind of gem have we drafted? We need to learn how to build this team around Jabari-Sengun. We need Sengun to touch the ball on every play also work on our spacing to give Jabari smart shooting opportunities! Proud of this team!
