Iman Shumpert is just horrible in almost every way.

    If we started House instead of him we would probably have won.

    House didn't start because MDA needed his scoring off the bench with EG out.

    Starting shampert makes us lose 1x points in the 1st quarter. This guy should not put in playoff like Joe Johnson last year

    He is ****ING HORRIBLE - do not play him any more unless others are injured, he should be 12th man at best.

    Death sentence starting him. It took a Super Saiyan effort to eradicate that again.

    Shumpert was one of the reasons Rockets got back in the game. Ya boy House was one of the reasons the Rockets lost today. I hope your jinx hasn't finally taken hold. Rocket gonna need House in the playoffs.

    I would start Gary Clark at the 3 before Shumpert. What an embarrassing decision by MDA that cost the team the game.

    Shumpert didn't do jack **** to get the Rockets back in the game. It was all Gerald Green hitting threes and then Harden activating Gawden mode at the end.

    Shumpert and Rivers came in to lock down the defense while Green went cold and Harden had to go HarGawd. I understand you guys hate him, but you chumps should give credit where credit is due. Shumpert absolutely contributed to the run when House and Green were on the bench.

    Hard to do if he contributes over let's say 5 minutes and is 0 factor the rest.

    I just go no comment on him......

    Shumbert is not starter material.
    Even Ennis could play better than him.

    I will admit...I hate the *idea* of Iman Shumpert. He is the symbol for the Rockets deciding that the tax was more important than maximizing the team’s chance to win. It’s not Iman’s fault.

    Give the freaking guy a break....we were only down 15 points when MDA finally took him out in the first quarter. He contributed 4 points by the end of the game, so overall a good effort by Shump. Can’t wait to see what he brings to the table next game......

    I hardly comment on him, I think it's the first or second time I have been in his threads.

    There is the break you sought.

    I usually dun criticize a player for being himself, just his weaknesses in a specific game.

    It ends up we didn't have much scoring from the starters other than Harden.
