Rockets sending double team help against Sabonis in the low post. He dominated them in Sacramento. – 8:20 PM

Sengun’s block looked clean. Maybe he followed through and got a piece of Harrison Barnes. Either way, that’s the sort of replay that should be shown to the home crowd six times, rather than the obligatory once. – 8:18 PM

@James_HamNBA
Keegan Murray triple. Good to see him get one to go down early. – 8:15 PM

K.J. Martin’s dunk on Sabonis was contest worthy, though there probably won’t be anyone at the rim to jump over. – 8:15 PM

Most mid season trades don’t produce the desired results that the Rockets got with Clyde Drexler, the Pistons got with Rasheed Wallace, or even the Mavs got with Spencer Dinwiddie last year. Mavs hoping to double their fun with Kyrie – 7:31 PM

De’Aaron Fox tells me Baby Reign was born here in Houston on Friday. That makes his birthday Feb. 3, 2023. Just missed sharing a Feb. 4 birthday with Malik Monk.
“We got 2/3/23,” Fox said. “That’s fire.”
Fox says Recee and the baby are good. Congrats to the whole Fox family! 🦊 – 7:30 PM

“It’s a business. I’ve seen crazier. The way I found out I was traded from Houston. You just show up to work and be a pro day in and day out. Nobody’s exempt from being traded. Find out just like everybody else.” Chris Paul on being part of Kyrie Irving trade package #Suns #Nets – 2:32 PM

If the #BrooklynNets really do trade KD to the Celtics for Brown, the #HoustonRockets should send a nice gift basket to Kyrie Irving and consider retiring his number. They own BRK’s first round pick. – 1:38 PM
