[Highlight] 23-0 SUNS RUN đ„ Mark Williams with back-to-back AND-1’s as Phoenix comes out HOT in The Valley!
So, one conference semifinals will be Spurs vs Denver and other will be Thunder against either Timme Drew or Getoffmydickerson. Nice

Hardest Road
I DID say when Durant was traded they wouldnât wanna playoff seriesâŠ.
A LakERs vs Rockets first round series will set the sport of basketball back a few decades.
if the Suns win tonight there’s a very clear route to Lakers/Wolves as the 4⁄5 matchup
One thing I notice about Sengun is when he backs down a guy he just elbows them in the gut repeatedly.
Itâs kinda wild how heâs just allowed to fuck people up with bows all game. Idk if Iâve seen anyone so violent with it. Shoulders to chest are one thing, whatever he does is totally not that lol
Heâs not good, he crumbles against good physical defense
This thread feels so much more welcoming now
imagine if they lost after that lead
that rockets first round exit is inevitable
even against hospital lakers?
yes
Grandpa Lebron gonna get it done just to fuck with KD. A final fuck you for the KD warriors.
lebum is not like that.
but KD is gonna say F- you OKC for me leaving you and becoming a villain and you guys hate me now. He finna average 50 or smtn and tweet about Jabari
I didn’t think so but honestly hospital lakers could actually do it. JJ (imo) can coach better with less (what he currently has) and this Rockets team just looks so ass lately it’s unbelievable
So ass that they won 6 straight
7 now lmao
What an unbelievable dumb take
They are not winning shit lets be honest. It was just a bad start, not to mention that its still a 50 win team that has been winning recently, Lakers have no chance unless they magically get Luka back
Okc fans saying the dumbest crap is inevitable
Bro, we are the opponent.
The Rockets vs the LakERs will be one of the series of our time.
I really like this phx team man
I live in Phoenix, and it doesn’t matter that they aren’t #1, vibes are SO much better with this team around here. It’s so much easier to have a conversation about basketball without Beal hanging over it.
You still like them?
I really like when Durant’s former cats beat his ass
Bad news!
Lakers messed up for declining that trade đ
Kevin âenjoy the low expectationsâ Durant
Update?
he won’t respond lmao
Vibes are just so bad everywhere he goes
Imagine losing to Stalin?
Guess we’ll have to keep imagining it
Stalin and getoffmydickerson about to win the same amount of playoff series this year
I’m sure you’d like that to be true
Yes? What is this even supposed to mean?
Blaming Kevin Durant for this at his age after a torn achilles is hilarious and sad at the same time
Suns fans are dumb as hell, still blaming kd for trading for the worst contract in the league and giving up valuable assets to do it
Your owner was a dumb*** and star hunting in the 2020 in the nba. He had to learn the lesson the hard way it wonât work like that in this current nba. Blaming kd is so dumb, you might as well trash Booker too since he was all for those trades.
Flair up hoe
You are so soft for saying flair up
1.1M karma account saying âflair up hoeâ
Itâs already over
He under delivered and shit talked us on the way out.
Itâs not that deep lol, fuck KD.
Your team forced him out the door lol. What do u expect?
He under delivered? I would say why do u say kd under delivered and Devin Booker didnât under deliver?
Why did suns fans constantly say book was better than kd but then place the responsibility of being a competitive playoff contender on kd? And not book? Why didnât book underperform?
Thereâs always 2 sides of the story
Lots of guys get moved around the league without burning bridges and shit talking former teams/teammates.
He simply wasnât worth his price. His performance wasnât worth what we had to pay to get him.
You can say that means we overpaid, not that he underdelivered, but itâs really the same thing. That trade was seen as fair market value at the time, and KD simply wasnât worth his market value.
kd is a great player but his playstyle just doesnât translate to todayâs game especially if heâs a first option. todays best offenses are about ball movement, generating open 3s and having the whole team in sync moving and setting screens. the suns offense when led by kd was him isoing in the post and turning the ball over a lot. booker sacrificed his scoring aggression and wasted like half his prime during these years. kd underperformed massively during the 2023 playoffs, and the suns honestly couldâve won the ring if kd didnât have a generational stinker in game 2 vs the nuggets
Stalin lookin good
Everyone knows you don’t invade Russia in the winter.
Man I thought Green’s effort and lack of ‘winning attitude’ would be a problem but I couldn’t have been more wrong
those jerseys are so tuff
Fuck it. Help us out Phoenix. Let’s go!!!
Not if they play us
A stoppable force meets a movable object
Bron and friends would beat this rockets team
Nah
No way. Not against the Lakers
Honestly, it would be 100% the typical showcase of the Rockets by losing to Lakers in 5 or 6 against no Luka/Reaves
this rockets team has major issues without VanVleet or Adams. KD is all-time great scorer but he has never been a playmaker, and without a PG the rockets have some major weaknesses on offense.
IDK if jake Laravia, DeAndre Ayton, a 41 year old lebron, luke kennard and bronny james are gonna be the ones to exploit that. They aren’t exactly a swarming perimeter / fullcourt defense out there. Lakers down Luka and Reaves just have nothing left in the tank offensively, and the team just has nothing defensively even at full power
The Rockets would still be heavy favorites against the Lakers, but they’re the only team that we have even a 1% chance of beating in the first round.
So uh would the suns be interested in a trade for one slightly used KD for say Jalen Green and Dillon Brooks? But seriously I thinks its official, they won the trade.
You canât be real? We have more wins than them without a PG and Adams. Basically replace last season FVV, Adams, Green, and Brooks with KD and we basically have the same amount of wins as last year. Weâre just unlucky with injuries and DFS being ass.
Jalen green is so ass, how are u that simple minded that you think the trade is the reason Houston is the way they are.
They lost their only real starting caliber pg before the season started. They are starting a total non point guard at point guard.
Rockets fans will not blame any of their own young guys. Amen Thompson is a negative player on offense, Ben Taylor (who this sub loves) said so 1 month ago.
They lost Steven Adams too and we see how vital offensive rebounding is to offenses in the year 2026 in the nba.
You all are proving kd right. Heâs having a better year than last year. You all are such sheep. Group think/mob mentality non stop.
I agree with some of what youâre saying, but you are very wrong on amenÂ
Not only are we significantly better when amen is on the court in general, but the rockets are also much better on offense when he is on the court, you can affect the game on offense without a jump shotÂ
Every metric you find show amens improves the rockets on both ends, and the eye test also supports thatÂ
Found the KD stan. I’m sure its just coincidence that all 3 of his last teams have fallen apart and underacheived. Hopefully he gets a chance to turn things around on team number 4 this summer.
KD is an all time great scorer but he just isn’t a playmaker. you throw double teams at him and he can’t make the reads/passes/handle ball pressure well.
rockets with vanvleet and adams would be a legit great squad, but without those two we see some major weaknesses exposed.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KQiBj0G4TDY see daniel li video on it calling him the greatest 2nd option of all time lol, since his teams just can’t get over the hump and play championship level ball if he’s the #1 go-to creator and playmaker.
I don’t think it’s fair to say the suns won the trade, because if Vanvleet and Adams didn’t get injured, you could’ve legit took a swing for a championship this year (not favored over OKC/SAS, but definitely a real shot of winning against anybody)
What was Houston doing before kd got there? And donât mention the harden years⊠that has nothing to do with kd and the rockets whole stint.
The rockets were first round exits before kd and they will be first round exits after kd leaves.
Pipe down and look in the mirror. You act like kd came in and destroyed a good thing. Youâre right on track to be first round exits again barring a heroic performance from the man himself, Kevin Durant.
That sounds about right given all the injuries the rockets dealt with. If they were fully healthy kd wouldâve gotten them to the semis in the west. Heâs old and tore his achilles.
Don’t forget to wipe your mouth and zip up KDs pants when youre done bro
Youâre simping for Jalen green and Dillon Brooks
That speaks for itself
Like I said, you all were first round exits before kd and you all will be first round exits after kd leaves
I know its hard for a little fan boy to understand but I ride with the team and not specific players. Meanwhile youre going to bat in this comment section for a man that has no idea that you even exist. Only one of us is a simp here.
