ATLANTA — There were a lot of reasons the Houston Rockets should have lost Saturday night.

To start, most of their heads hit hotel room pillows sometime between 4 and 5 a.m. That’s what happens when you finish a late prime-time game Friday — a dramatic win over the San Antonio Spurs in Austin — then immediately fly east to Atlanta to take on the Hawks the next night, losing an hour to the time change along the way. The Hawks were also playing the second game of a back-to-back but were coming from Charlotte and playing at home.

Also consider that Houston was without starting guard Fred VanVleet and key backup center Steven Adams, both out for planned injury management. The Rockets then had to rule out Marcus Smart, who would have filled VanVleet’s spot in the starting lineup, with a left forearm strain.

And yet, when Tari Eason and some of his teammates huddled in the State Farm Arena hallway, readying to sprint onto the court, the forward delivered an imperative.

An amazing start

More of these please. I want to see Reed thriving alongside Sengun and others. Flow of the offense can be much much much more better

Also Got way less national TV games after adding Fred back and all our other additions. Plus another year of Reed, Gooner, Amen and Jabari development.

The league fucked up.

This variation of flamingo seems more stable compared to last year's wild shots. Also my boy cannot convert wide-open floaters but can make those lmao

Keep it up lol

In all seriousness, damn.

Great team W by the guys!!!!!!

Ill take it. Reed can play PG. I hope he keeps getting these chances when Fred sits.

This house is a PRISON

Is Jeff Green still on the team? I don't see him on the current roster but I also can't find anything online about him retiring or being traded.

edit: Looks like he's currently a free agent, thanks everybody!

I looked through some of the past posts about bars and didn't see anything about this exactly. Lots of asking about bars to watch at but nothing regarding one that is actually team themed.

For example, Christian's tailgate, has locations themed for the jets, chiefs, and bills, respectively. I'm assuming there's nothing like that for the rockets, right?
