Uncle Jeff still has it at 37. He’s been a stone wall against the Nuggets bench so far this game. He has stated that he helped the Rockets prepare against his former team last year. He decided to pitch in a lot physically as well.

    I really wasn’t expecting Houston to get so much juice out of Sengun, Brooks and FVV this year… I thought Jabari or Green might make a leap, but… I still wasn’t expecting to see them in the playoffs, but that’s definitely the way they’re trending at this point… Double digits on the Nuggets?!?

      Around 20 leading into the half. Part of it is the Nuggets being really cold, but our defense is absolutely making them work and us hitting shots. The defense from the FAs plus Ime is probably the biggest positive this team has seen.

        I don’t even think that their performance would’ve been such massive surprise to me if Amen or Cam or another one of the young athletes were playing a surprisingly large role, but… It’s a bunch of guys who are known quantities… the only difference is they’re now operating within Udoka’s system.
