In-game fan misery, every 15 minutes.
What happened
Three games, three wins, and a fanbase that has already started claiming things. The opener, 128-110 over Dallas, broke a drought — "first season opening W since 2017-18. Wild." — and set the tone. The turn came in San Antonio, where a 114-110 escape convinced everyone the math was settled: "82-0 BABY." By the time Atlanta fell 121-114 with three rotation pieces out, Houston was 3-0 and claiming the capital of southern hip-hop. Sengun is "the definition of a BULLY." Nobody wants Sheppard traded anymore.
