As the second half of their regular season begins, the Rockets are 15-3 at home and 12-13 on the road. But their latest road win, which came Friday at Detroit on night two of a back-to-back, was perhaps their most impressive of the entire 2025-26 campaign.The Rockets (27-16) and Pistons (32-11) remain at No. 4 and No. 1, respectively, in the Western and Eastern Conference standings.Hosted by Ben DuBose and Dave Hardisty, Friday's “ClutchFans Live” postgame show breaks down all the key storylines from that statement victory. Topics include the physical and mental dominance of Kevin Durant; a somewhat underwhelming night on defense from Alperen Sengun; and promising signs from the likes of Amen Thompson, Jabari Smith Jr., and Reed Sheppard.This episode can also be viewed in video form here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DKBQOSCDeJk 

Thank you to everyone who joined live for the latest edition of Corporate Knowledge: After Dark, this time following a 111-106 Spurs loss to the Rockets. It was never going to be as easy as the first half appeared to be for San Antonio, especially on the second night of a back-to-back on the road against a team you know is going to turn things into a wrestling match. And still, one of the next steps this Spurs team has to take is figuring out how to hang on to these leads against good teams. Once the postseason comes around, that is going to be a necessary trait. In this episode, we discussed San Antonio blowing a 16-point lead, the offense sticking, Wemby struggling, Reed Sheppard leading the Houston charge, and much more in the post-postgame show. For those of you who would like to join live in the future and get in on the chat, you can do so by first subscribing to the Corporate Knowledge newsletter, then downloading the Substack app. You'll get a notification when we hit the air, which will be shortly after as many games as we can. You can also now watch and listen on your desktop or laptop (thank you, Substack!). If you do miss a show, fear not. Full episodes, including Q&A with the live chat at the end of each, will be sent out via newsletter either late that night or at some point the next morning, and the abridged version will be available on the Small Market Bias podcast feed wherever you get your podcasts.

Featuring Ben DuBose, Dave Hardisty (ClutchFans), and Adam Clanton (SportsTalk 790), Wednesday's Rockets-Spurs game recap breaks down Houston's 111-106 victory over its in-state divisional rival.With the win, Houston (26-15, No. 4 in Western Conference) is only a game back in the loss column of second-seeded San Antonio (30-14).Discussion topics include efficient and clutch showings from Reed Sheppard (21 points) and Jabari Smith Jr. (17 points); what Ime Udoka is likely to do in the absence of Steven Adams (severe ankle sprain); and how the Rockets kept Spurs star Victor Wembanyama (5-of-21 shooting) in check.This episode can also be viewed in video form here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3iXsYBEj0k

After a prolonged stretch of mediocrity, the Rockets (26-15) completed their recent homestand at 4-1, punctuated by a statement win over a key Western Conference rival.By defeating San Antonio (30-14), Houston moved up to the No. 4 spot in the West standings, and the Rockets only trail the second-seeded Spurs by a game in the loss column.So, have the Rockets finally turned a corner, and are they a legitimate contender? In Thursday's show, our Ben DuBose and Paulo Alves debate the pros and cons.Topics include a recent regression by Alperen Sengun on defense; encouraging signs of growth from Reed Sheppard and Jabari Smith Jr.; the impact of losing Steven Adams (severe ankle sprain) for an extended period; and whether the team's striking home-versus-road splits (15-3 in Houston, 11-12 away) could make capturing home-court advantage for the playoffs even more important.

Jusuf Nurkic might not play every game, but when he plays, he prefers Dos Equis (and triple doubles). Jalen Green and Tari Eason came back, Reed Sheppard made our "hold" rec seem smart, and Mamu is the center to roster in Toronto. Let's talk Tuesday results!

In a nationally televised showdown against the defending NBA champions, Oklahoma City's defense suffocated the Rockets in a 111-91 victory. Houston fell to 23-15 and remains at No. 6 in the Western Conference, while the Thunder hold the league's best record at 35-7.Featuring Ben DuBose and Dave Hardisty, our “ClutchFans Live” show offers postgame reaction to Thursday's letdown at Toyota Center. Topics include a sustained shooting slump across the roster; subpar trend lines for Reed Sheppard and Jabari Smith Jr.; and whether a lack of offensive firepower might force general manager Rafael Stone to consider trades at the February 5 in-season deadline.

After three dreadful shooting games — all road losses for the Rockets — from Jabari Smith Jr., Houston's fourth-year forward finally broke out in Tuesday's 119-113 win over the Chicago Bulls.

With the win, the Rockets climbed to within a game in the loss column of the Western Conference's No. 2 seed.Discussion topics include the implications of Smith (18 points, 7 rebounds) returning to form; the promotion of JD Davison to rotation minutes amid Reed Sheppard's recent slump; more inconsistency on the defensive end; and crucial games upcoming versus the Oklahoma City Thunder (34-7) and Minnesota Timberwolves (27-14).This episode can also be viewed in video form here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Cfb9qyA12Y

After a brilliant 13-4 start to the 2025-26 season, the Rockets (22-12) went just 9-8 in their second 17-game sample. With Houston now at No. 6 in the Western Conference standings, is it time for fans to recalibrate their expectations?In Friday's full show, Ben DuBose and Paulo Alves explore that question and numerous other January 2026 storylines surrounding the Rockets. Discussion topics include the role of Alperen Sengun's absence (right ankle sprain) in Houston's suddenly mediocre offense; how much criticism is warranted for Reed Sheppard and Jabari Smith Jr.; and whether the recent inconsistency could make a trade more likely by the in-season deadline of February 5.

This episode delivers a fast-moving, opinion-driven conversation across the NFL, NBA, and college sports, touching on the biggest narratives shaping the landscape right now.The show opens with a strong take on Lamar Jackson being unfairly made the scapegoat, before shifting to draft and award talk — including whether Jaxson Dart should be the early favorite for Offensive Rookie of the Year. From there, the discussion turns to coaching and front office stability, questioning if Aaron Glenn is on a short leash and why Joe Schoen remains the Giants' GM.On the basketball side, the crew debates the San Antonio Spurs' place in the Western Conference, compares Reed Sheppard vs. Amen Thompson, and addresses whether the anger toward JJ Redick is misplaced. A bigger-picture debate follows on which superstar is easier to build around long term — Luka Dončić or Cooper Flagg.The episode wraps with a college sports discussion on why NIL needs immediate reform, followed by The BME's Award Selections, recognizing standout performances and storylines across sports.If you enjoy smart debate, big-picture sports conversations, and unfiltered takes, this episode is for you.

Brandon Scott reacts to the Houston Rockets' 115-101 win over the Denver Nuggets on Saturday. Kevin Durant had 31 points on 14 shots and talked a lot of trash to the Nuggets. But it was Reed Sheppard's 28 points on 15 shots off the bench that stood out just as much. Sheppard's six assists, three steals and two blocks had an incredible impact on the game. What was clear from it is that he's the Rockets' best point guard on the team right now.

With a much-improved defensive effort and elite shooting and playmaking from Kevin Durant, Reed Sheppard, and Jabari Smith Jr., Houston (17-8) got its revenge on the Nuggets (20-7) in Saturday's emphatic win at Denver.Hosted by Ben DuBose and Dave Hardisty, our “ClutchFans Live” postgame show breaks down all the key storylines and takeaways. Discussion topics include the impact of Durant's leadership in recent days; Smith's evolution into a high-level role player for the Rockets; and whether Sheppard has already done enough to secure a consistent spot in Ime Udoka's closing lineups.This episode can also be viewed in video form here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0McY-0y5yyI 

After a strong start to the 2025-26 season, Houston's defensive rating is now in the bottom half of the NBA for December. Not coincidentally, the Rockets (16-8) currently have a losing record (3-4) for the month.Hosted by Ben DuBose and Dave Hardisty, our latest “ClutchFans Live” postgame show breaks down all the frustrations after the Rockets blew a 25-point lead in the second half versus the lowly Pelicans (6-22). Topics include the clear defensive regression; struggles to involve Kevin Durant in crunch-time possessions; and an odd downturn in the usage of Reed Sheppard.

It's a Houston Rockets episode of ‘The Young Man and the Three' with Steven Adams and Reed Sheppard, and it's a good one. Some of their discussions include:Reed's background, playing for the University of Kentucky, and deciding to leave after one yearSteven's experience coming to the US for basketball and his unorthodox draft pathHow Steven became the strongest player in NBA and his wild dietSteven's relationship with Oklahoma City and his Thunder yearsReed's impressive jump this season in his second yearAppreciation for Kevin Durant, Alperen Sengun, Amen Thompson, and Dillon BrooksWhat makes Ime Udoka a great coachSteven's farm…and so much more.
