    i actually liked barnes alot . was joking that we shoulda taken him , but i wanted to trade back and get him.

    probably had the top upside in the draft, but a little older than the other freshman IIRC.

    i hope green grows an inch or two and fills out his frame. Barnes clearly has more NBA ready body

    Hollins (isms)

    Says this 14 times a game.

    I love what coach Silas is doing here (insert putting a player in the game)

    I played with this player (insert a no name player)

    Sengun & Tate looks ready.

    Porter Jr., Green & Wood have bad basketball IQ

    Not sure we can build a winning team with them.

    Green has potential but I just don't see it right now

    I know its only preseason but why does this feel like the worst rockets game I've ever seen. I checked out midseason last year so i could be wrong lol

    'FYI it's on Rockets.com and Rockets App (or is it blacked out somehow b/c you're not in Houston? Not sure how all that works). Or maybe just don't watch and forget I said anything

    Players are acting like they haven't played any games or practiced together. Teammates are clogging up the paint, bunching up on one side etc. Basically stuff you see pick up teams at the Y do.

    Part of why Green can't drive is he's starting up top with absolutely no spacing with guys like Wood or Tate trying to establish post position at the same time.

    That's why you have to run set plays. Either iso clear out with proper spacing or execute the pick and roll game.
