Batum's defense is such a nice add

I'm literally crying happy tears right now. The Texans beat the Bengals and Stroud was sensational yet again. Now if the Rockets can win six games in a row and beat the defending NBA champion Nuggets right now I'm not sure what I'll do. I'm too hyped up, excited, anxious and just enjoying the moment. I'm probably going to pop open a bottle of cheap champagne and watch the game in bed. I know the Rockets can pull off the win tonight too! The game is about to start in 22 minutes.

Embiid and Maxey had themselves a first half

Maxey already tied his season high of 34.

There's still 4 min left in the 3rd quarter rofl

NO FASTBREAK IS EASY WITH MAXEY AROUND THIS SEASON

Man is quietly averaging 1 block per game as a 6'2" guard and is making chase down blocks a routine thing

None better THAN THIS. Three blocks tonight

50 FOR MAXEY

Jokic is unreal. Damn. Monster game for the superstar, champion and MVP.
But the Rockets lead 105-102 with 14 seconds left. Nuggets ball though...

Yess! Rockets win 107-104! 6 wins in a row. 6-3 record. Beat the defending NBA champions!!!

Nikola Jokic had 36 points, 21 rebounds, 11 assists for the monster triple-double.
Alperen "baby Jokic" Sengun had 23 points, 8 rebounds, 5 assists and 2 blocks...

I'm not going to lie. I thought Sengun would do better defensively but still good.
Fred VanVleet scored 26 points. Just a huge 107-104 win! Jokic got his but okay.

The Houston Rockets are 6-3 and the playoffs are possible this year. They've got all the talent in the world, IMO.
And Tari Eason came back. He's another good young player off the bench. 22 years old. Double-double potential.

I feel like the Rockets starting 5 of Alperen Sengun, Jabari Smith Jr., Dillon Brooks, Jalen Green and Fred VanVleet is money!!

Alperen Sengun on the postgame show. He says, "The Rockets will win a championship one day like his idol Jokic!"
