Did Tate just blow out his achilles?

[r0drig0lac]

damn

[SPURt]

Damn, Clemons

[Dex]

Was just about to say that Clemens kid looks good, then he tears his Achilles...

Yep, definitely looks like an Achilles...no contact, just a plant and pop. Sucks for that guy

[gambit1990]

the rockets announcers were talking about achilles early in the game. they said it seems like something that going around.

[BackHome]

It's just preseason but Aldridge looks like he has taken a step back. Father time looks like it's coming for him. Not good for his trade value.

Yeah noticed that to the game really slows down when he is playing definitely the odd man out.

[RC_Drunkford]

Spurstalk favorite Jakob Poeltl with the team high -12

[BackHome]

Did he Pop his Achilles? I think that happens to only one player every year man that sucks for that kid if he tore it.

[Mugen]

At least Dejounte was finally able to beat somebody off the dribble

[spurraider21]

Power forward is a top priority next offseason.

thats supposed to be Luka. could have had clarke

[Dejounte]

Damn that's so ed

[Mugen]

i just looked at the 2020 stats and the old man started Lyles for 50+ games, jesus christ

[Capt Bringdown]

LOL Sean Elliot: "Patty is an assassin."

I think players are training too hard nowadays.

You can tell after that happened the Rockets lost all will to finish out this meaningless game. Hate to see those injuries. They’re not like ACLs where healing has gotten faster and guys generally come back fine. Achilles are huge question marks.

[poopbox]

Why is Lyles playing so much...would rather watch Ewww...banks

Like I been saying the main reason why this team sucked last year was cause Flopovich thought he has to start 2 3rd stringers in Forbes and Lyles

[Chomag]

So now that Forbes is gone is Lyles Pop's new charity case?

[SAGirl]

He also has 7 assists. Made a couple good reads. Just the usual problem with his assist to turnover ratio

Can’t watch the game so I am boxscoring. Is it the loose handle or careless passing?

[SAGirl]

Murray has passed well but dribbled poorly. hard to make that work

I see...

[Dex]

I am officially over Lyles. Dude sucks.

[Mugen]

Hopefully Lonnie gets a few more mins this game as primary ballhandler

[SPURt]

Caboclo looks like an accident of nature. Weird proportions

[RC_Drunkford]

Can’t watch the game so I am boxscoring. Is it the loose handle or careless passing?

both, but moreso the handle

[Chomag]

Trey Jones to Vessel dunk!! Hope to see more of that in the future
