Latest news and updates about the Rockets
On Saturday, the Houston Rockets made a few relatively minor roster moves, assigning both Jae’Sean Tate and JD Davison to the Rio Grande Vipers. Neither move was much of a surprise, as both players were averaging right around five minutes per contest, when they played. However, Davison played in just five games (such is life […]
The sky is falling! Sound the alarm! Catastrophize! Dear God, why isn’t anybody catastrophizing? That’s the vibe on Rockets X. The Rockets lost by three points to the Denver Nuggets. So the logical conclusion is that the entire season is wasted. That’s obviously absurd. Rockets fans should leave that for Stephen A. Smith and other […]
The Houston Rockets defeated the Cavaliers 114-104 on Wednesday night at Rocket Arena in Cleveland.

Huge game tonight The post Preview: Denver Nuggets take on Houston Rockets in pivotal NBA Cup game appeared first on Denver Stiffs .
Tonight’s game is an elimination game for the NBA Cup. Both the Houston Rockets and Denver Nuggets are 1-1, so the loser will be 1-2 and need a lot of help. Denver might have a path forward since their last opponent is an injury-ravaged San Antonio Spurs in Colorado. Meanwhile, Houston will play at Golden […]
This game didn’t look close at the end. It didn’t look close in the middle, but due to some spectacularly awkward play by the Rockets in the third quarter, it was close up until the end. This was a game of extremes. Mostly extremes of baffling basketball and shooting dry spells. Both the Rockets and […]
Prior to Friday night the Portland Trail Blazers hadn’t suffered a single double-digit loss in the entire 2025-26 season.

The game featured many of the hallmarks of Portland play: big runs, huge dunks, fast and easy scoring. But […]

Karma. Juju. Vibes. This stuff matters. It’s hard to put a finger on it, but you know it matters. It’s got to feel right. If it feels wrong, follow that intuition. There are machinations at play that we don’t understand. Whatever your cosmic alignment, you’re naive to assume that cold, hard logic dictates everything. Kyrie […]
