    We NEVER have even one body under the basket when a 3 goes up.

    That 4-point play needs to be a momentum turner.

    This game is a complete vindication of Moreyball. Rockets have been atrocious. Only in the game because of math LOL.

    Better passing, get the ball in front of the shooter, not behind.

    That's ignoring the premise that they are playing worse, because of Moreyball. Not hating, just pointing out the flaw in your logic.

    Rockets need to diversify this offense, feast or famine out there.

    We need to get better quality of looks. Ryan and Gordon are also sometimes too hesitant and ruin the possession for the team . They both also chuck at times without it being a good look .

    You have to commit yourself to a plan. This is who they are. They believe they should keep shooting when they are cold because they believe it will average out.

    Remember anything above 33 % from 3 is better than 50 % from 2

    One of the math problems Morey solved was Rockets - Brewer = More wins

    Why is it ppl get mad when someone say they rather not watch the rest of the game? It can be frustrating watching this team give away games.

    Fair point fair point. I think they do need to attack the basket MUCH more than they are right now.

    I think we're not shooting well also cause a lot of shots are forced/unnecessary imo...we settle too much for a 3 without trying to make a play even when we would have the chance...

    We've missed 17 of last 20 3-point attempts. Keep shooting 3s.
