The suns have to learn from this that waiting until the last second to take a shot like that is insane

I knew that was coming
ride with the book die with the book just like dtv
I mean, great effort. I have to applaud them for sticking with Houston on the back end of a back to back.
With every 50-50 Call going to Houston’s Way but this is a game we should’ve won

Booker and Durant doing isolation basketball. I thought that was over. Nothing to prove.

I don’t like that team. We do not matchup well with them. Still could have won.
Why did I know it was going to come down to a Durant or Book shot?!?

I don't like calling a time out when there is a live ball after a miss like that.
Especially to set up a terrible ISO play.
Yuck.
Also, I think Allen could use some more time to heal up. He looked stuck in the mud.

Just didn't have enough in the tank to pull through. They fought and that's all you can ask.

100%. Bookers hero ball lost this game. The rockets are a deadly opponent for him. He’s not athletic enough to consistently get his shot against those long athletes.
im good - competed in both games and we beat okc - i wish book would have drove and drawn the foul or got his teammates involved but he thought he was going to make that shot - then the kd dagger

Better off silent
We gave ourselves the chance to win, which many of us didn’t expect.
Bad decision from Book at the end, but all in all a promising game.

our defense was lacking in the 2nd half - didn't have the same oomf
