Rockets got off to a slow start against Portland at home. But now they're rolling. Up 86-69 in the third quarter.
Alperen Sengun, Kevin Durant, Jabari Smith Jr. and Amen Thompson look like the Harlem Globetrotters out there.

Reed Sheppard is only 2-for-5 from threes so far tonight. His 50% three-point shooting will go down unless he makes a few in a row.

Rockets are about to be 8-3 on the season barring a 4th quarter collapse.

I didn't even realize bulls lost 4 straight

And last loss was vs Pistons where paul Reed dropped 28/13/6 on em

Rockets beat the Trail Blazers, 140-116. The Rockets have the #1 offensive rating in the NBA.
Kevin Durant scored 30 points. 7 players were in double figures. It's a fun time for Houston now.



For years the Rockets always wanted a "big three" even when they won 65 games with James Harden and Chris Paul.
They never really had a big three (all-star caliber) since Olajuwon, Barkley and Drexler (then Pippen) in the late '90s.

But right now I think they have a big three in Kevin Durant, Alperen Sengun and Amen Thompson.
And Jabari Smith Jr. is a young Chris Bosh. Looks like Jabari is finally developing into a young star.

I think the 2026 NBA Finals is going to be the Rockets/Thunder/Nuggets vs. the Cavaliers/Knicks/Pistons...
But I'd give your 76ers the 4th best chance in the East. In the West I can't count out the Warriors, Spurs, Lakers.

Rockets will probably blow out Orlando on Sunday. They should be 9-3 for the ESPN Game Wednesday at Cleveland.

Nice

ive never seen a regular starter pick up his 5th foul 20 seconds into the 3rd quarter

PG is back babyyyyyy

Tyrese Maxey best guard in the East? Unreal. Just a machine.

Drummond with 14 pts and 18 rebounds against Zubac too.

RAPS leading division son!

Playing again tomorrow though
