    It's bad enough that he's stinking up the joint along with the rest of the team except Harden as of late, but that last turnover tonight was completely mind-boggling. It almost makes you question if he's legitimately sucking or paid to suck.

    He’s hitting the wall playing to many minute. Faried has to eat away some of minutes. He’s a comparable defender to Tucker

    we can trust Tucker.

    Except when he’s intoxicated. He was obviously not in right mind, first with stupid 3point foul then going brain dead on inbounds pass.

    I would pay to see PJs reaction watching the replay of that moment.

    Tillman's cheapness has driven PJ to the bottle. The team is about to have its own opioids crisis if nothing is done to fix Tillman.

    Obviously, he was paid to try to throw the game. He just didn't need to be so obvious about how he was going to do that. o_O

    he's the only rocket who has played every singe game this year, while averaging 35 minutes per game as an undersized 6-5 SF forced to play PF, and bang down low with guys much bigger and stronger than him, while also needing to guard perimeter players quicker and faster than him.

    i'm pretty sure he's dogshit tired and it's not only affecting his legs but his mind as well.

    We would be lost without PJ. Takes the oppo best player every night and for his size does an outstanding job.

    Can we trust Tucker? Hell yes. We need to get him some more help though

    He's played like garbage on the offensive end for the past few months and has played okay defense. I have a feeling it's because of the heavy minutes because D'Antoni is refusing to play Gary Clark more minutes. Think about it. Is Tucker playing any better offensively than Gary Clark right now?

    I'm sure hes just a bit gassed. He's an older vet and has been playing heavy minutes and doesn't miss games. Hell be fine once everyone comes back and faried can give him some resr

    So I'm guessing you missed the slam dunk made by Tucker against the Lakers during comeback with under 2 minutes left in the 4th before overtime...the 20 point comeback on saturday?

    The dunk over kuzma, 7footer I think it was.

    Tucker dunked over kuzma, a seven footer last saturday.

    I trust him more than anyone outside of James Harden. He is the defense, get him some F'ing help Dorkis...

    Technically, EGo turned it over.

    Tucker never touched the ball, therefore he is absolved of all sins lmaooo
