    30 seems a bit low.

    I mean the best college team is still worse than the worst g league team.

    Harden should adjust his game and use the backboard to bank those floaters for accuracy.

    By 60 each game. PJ Tucker would look like the best player on the planet. Gerald Green would actually be good.


    CP3 would have 6 steals a game or something stupid.

    Kenny Smith does an incredible job, hopefully he gets his dream job one day of coaching at the YMCA. TNT is really full of clowns.

    Question - With the guy behind him . . . If James JUMPS BACK INTO HIM
    Is that a foul?

    I only started watching with about 7 min left in the half .

    Harden looks OK , really good defense he's playing right now .

    When nene sets a huge screen and gobert is still so far back I think James has to take that open 2 .

    But one of the times he didn't he got himself a wide open dunk .... which he then blew

    Last game Mitchell was dogshit for 3 quarters only to turn into Dame in the 4th. He might be really be terrible tonight, or he's just laying low until it's time to kill us when we can't afford him to.

    Horrendous start, great finish to the half though. Hopefully they can carry that into the 3rd. Green has to start hitting some shots for him to be valuable at all.

    They need to try to score more in transition instead of always pulling back out and letting the Jazz set up their half court defense.

    He sets a massive pick. He should get more burn.

    That has been the case every single game against Utah this season.

    I said “nothing I’ve seen has given me hope the rockets are gonna win.”
    One poster responded “lol it ain’t that bad”
    That guy is the type of poster that belongs here, more so than me cuz he has a positive outlook.

    You on the other hand seem to also be angry but instead of explaining that threw a hissy fit on me; even though I just expressed my negative outlook based on poor play. I didn’t put down another poster, and I didn’t call any of our players garbage or ask someone to be fired.

    Grow up.

    I counted 10 points Green gave up by HIMSELF. He’d have to be a super efficient 20 PPG scorer to be an average player.
