I didn't even see this post until now. Good to see you again, Zach.
Nuggets are good but tonight the Rockets will pull off the road upset.

+6.5 underdogs at Denver. I'm just about to watch the game soon.
The Rockets have struggled vs. the Thunder, Spurs and Nuggets. LOL

Makes our 3rd seed look like a fluke. No Fred VanVleet or Steven Adams.
The Nuggets will probably make more noise than Houston in the playoffs.

Rockets, Lakers, Timberwolves, Nuggets and Suns are all bunched up 3 to 7. It's crazy right now.
And if you fall to 7 you have to play in the 7 to 10 Play-In Tournament. No guaranteed playoffs.

Only chance the Rockets have to win tonight is if Alperen Sengun is motivated to have a big game againat Nikola Jokic.

Sengun started the season hot. He made his second straight all-star appearance. But he sprained his ankle back in January...
He hasn't been the same dominant center since then. He was always elite offensively but Sengun's defense has been awful.

But Alperen Sengun is basically a 23-year-old version of Nikola Jokic who is now 31 years old. Consistency is all Sengun lacks now.
Sengun has dominated the likes of Wemby, Jokic and Giannis before. But last game vs. Wemby he disappeared. Was so disappointing.

And last year's playoffs vs. Draymond Green. Sengun was hit or miss. Came out and posterized Draymond in Game 1.
But then he disappeared a good portion of that series. Rockets ended up losing a Game 7. Sengun could've carried them.

It's gotten to the point if the Rockets get bounced in the first round again this year. I may just encourage a Sengun trade package for Giannis this summer.

Alperen Sengun came out the first minute and attacked Nikola Jokic in the paint.
Loved to see that aggression!! But then it's back to passive Sengun. So frustrating.

If Sengun had that Shaq mentality. That Mamba mentality. He'd be the best center.
But he only shows flashes of dominance. He needs consistency to win an NBA Title.

And I know he's only 23 years old but Sengun has all the skills in the world. Incredibly gifted.

Nikola Jokic is the best passing big man in the NBA. Maybe of all-time. He can see the entire court. Jeez. Incredible vision.

LOL. Nuggets just spanked us in the third quarter. 93-69 Nuggets. Aye Caramba!
I'm waving the white towel. No need to play the 4th quarter. I can call it a night.
But it's barely going to be 11 PM. I want to catch a movie on Prime Video or Netflix.
