[Manish Baruah @mbaruah]

The KD files was the cancer the team couldn't recover from. Hard to be a fan of the @NBA and @HoustonRockets. Just don't have the passion for the game anymore. Time to invest in other hobbies.

[AJTalkSports @AJTalkSports]

The Houston Rockets are a clown show organization.

Here is the truth about what has been and is going on-

Kevin Durant is faking an injury so that the rockets can play their young core the remainder of the Lakers series....

So they when the Rockets lose this series, all the blame can be placed on the young core and their performance and Ime Udoka and Durant have no accountability. And of course the young core; primarily Sengun and Sheppard (the only two elite offensive prospects) themselves are playing with little to no confidence, because they have never been empowered or given any coaching or developmental support their entire careers. and have had their confidence jacked and minutes played with since day 1; and all been waiting for the season to be over since January and especially since the KD files.

And Ime Udoka can use the excuse that Durant, Fred and Steven Adams were out and he can stay on board as coach and continue to not take any accountability for his teams play.

Everything Ime Udoka has done since it’s been here is do everything in his power to marginalize Alperen Sengun and Reed Sheppard and find every opportunity to blame deflect for his ineptitude and stupidity.

Not to mention Sengun has been an afterthought of the front office since he was drafted as he was benched for Bruno Fernando, almost replaced by Brook Lopez and has never been allowed to explore his game and play his natural position of power forward; and has taken all the blame for being the weak link on drefence when he’s anchored a top 5 defense and played out of position this entire time and been the scapegoat for every since problem since 2021.

while Reed Sheppard was completely redshirted his rookie year for 40mpg of fred van fleet (sub 40% fg) and Aaron holiday. and then in his sophomore after taking a massive leap had his minutes jacked around and was benched for JD Davison, Josh Okogie and Aaron Holiday.

all while Amen Thompson got an entire season to be the rockets point guard despite being horrific at it and showing minimal progression as a playmaker and continuing to literally be the worst shooter in the entire league.

all while Tari Eason and Jabari smith were allowed increased minutes despite some of the worst shooting slumps in the history of the sport and actively losing the rockets multiple regular season games with their play this year.

nothing over the last 5 years of this team has ever been based off talent or merit - its all been based of favoritism and politics and its SICKENING.

Durant of course is a snake and talks behind his own teammates back and is in on this as well as Ime Udoka butt buddy Fred Van Vleet.

This organization has been taken over by egotistical retards who think they are entitled to something.

Alperen Sengun and Reed Sheppard have never been supported or coached in their entire NBA careers or given freedoms to explore and develop their game - why? Because they are white and labeled by a fake narrative and never given the chance to showcase their strengths and be put in a situation that suits their strengths and skillsets.

This is coaching and front office malpractice and the Rockets will never win anything with these monkeys running their organization.

I am officially out as a Rockets fan - because i know this organization will keep Udoka and Durant and Fred this summer and jettison Reed/Sengun and blame them for this teams performance; when in reality they are the best players this organization has ever drafted in the last 20 years and are both Superstar/All star Level talents.

This organization built the right way just for it to be taken hostage by 3 egotistical retards. Very sad for rockets fans.

and it is time everyone wake up and see the truth and bail on this franchise.

[Jackson Gatlin @JTGatlin]

So Kevin Durant was "receiving treatment" for the entire three hour game after being a game time decision earlier?

Horrible look. He might have already quit on the Rockets.

[ᵂᴵᴸᴸ @BiasedHouston]

Well Lakers fans. Congratulations.

We asked for this matchup and our team did not show up. Good luck against OKC. 🤝🏽

[Brett Siegel @BrettSiegelNBA]

Throwing your team under the bus after this loss is a horrible look.

[Lachard Binkley @BinkleyHoops]

I have watched Rockets basketball for 4 decades, and that is the top 3 worst ways to lose a game I have ever seen.

[Manish Baruah @mbaruah]

Lock up. Then RUN RUN RUN. GO @HoustonRockets ! #allfire 🤘💪🚀

[Manish Baruah @mbaruah]

@BinkleyHoops @HorryForThree Nailed it.

[Lachard Binkley @BinkleyHoops]

So, after barely any sleep, here are a few thoughts on why the Rockets are down 0-2. Honestly, it's too many problems to list here, but here are three.

Ime Udoka's lack of adjustments, especially with KD, who is the most consistent scorer on this team by a mile, but he is constantly having to go up against 2 or 3 defenders from 25 feet out. That is a lack of creativity and has not worked all season, but we are still talking about it in the playoffs.

Your second-best player, Alperen Sengun, has been a non-factor through two games. Yes, the Lakers are packing the paint, but if you are going to be more than just a good regular-season player, you can't let any team take you out of a playoff series, no matter what defense they are playing.

The most obvious and the biggest issue of them all. They have too many players who can't make a wide-open basket. It's that simple. It doesn't matter what offense you run, it doesn't matter if KD is playing or not, it doesn't matter who you have on the court, if your team can't make open shots, playing 4-3, you will NEVER win in the playoffs.

Honestly, I dont know what to expect from Game 3, but I do know one thing: I'll be there for Game 3 and Game 4, that's all I can say for sure lol. It's been a long season.
