    Covington is passing up open 3s WTF. He's looking uncomfortable shooting those. On this team, you can miss but you can't pass up open 3s.

    Didn’t Hardaway Jr. drop like 40 on us a few years ago?

    Game is a layup drill, defense is a damn joke.

    Rockets need to take the easy 2 sometimes.

    I hate to be a Debbie downer but this game shows why I think we aren’t real contenders. It’s hard to have a consistent defense without a guy over 6’9” playing consistently. We have moments of brilliance then moments of ignorance. To be fair we weren’t going to get there with Capela either.

    Covington’s 3 has deserted him. Good defense in the second half, though. That was a clean block.

    trading Capela was the wrong move

    very frustrating when your getting open threes and just missing .

    PJ in foul trouble

    time to bring in carroll or another player who hasnt been playing , need a fresh energy.

    funny how our defense is awful we are missing open shots and we arent even down 10 . gotta improve focus and discipline

    I didn't know that the wide open 3 was the most difficult shot.....

    We simply don't have the defensive players anymore and rim protectors.
    Yup time to blow this sheet up, this is just a terrible roster building given what we had in 2018

    If he was healthy yes. But he’s been out for quite a while.
