Imagine waiting two months for a jersey and then this happens. And then you have to wear it while the Rockets (or Orckets) lose to their former franchise player? Pain.

“Well, first of all, according to Keith Pompey, I’m scared of [Rudy Gobert] and I’m scared of top centers. So, as we saw tonight, it looks like I was very, very scared of him. So, yeah, keep talking."

It’s entirely possible that someone in Sacramento saw exactly this. No word on if they were walking their cow or not.
