He's also a dad. I wonder if the changes in his life have given him a broader, grownup view.
I love The Athletic so I immediately scoured all their coverage this morning. I was disappointed in the narratives. Lots more focus on Samson...

Another stat...4 total fouls call first half, 25 the second.
Gotta say, I know everybody talked about Houston's defense, but I'm still surprised by 28 in first half.

That was a good point pre-game, if Houston winds up with 8+ more shots, they win.
