    So so many turnovers, so so many missed FTs......so so many missed wide open 3s.....

    I mean, some on this team are 2-3 years away from being a good NBA player.

    Green, Theis, Nwaba, Augustine - 10 points.

    Lakers should have saved the streamers.

    Green with 5 rebounds and 5 assists…6 fta after 9 the previous game

    slowly getting better at attacking the rim

    Now can he get his jumper going?

    Field Goals made a late run and got the W over turnovers, 32 to 25. Was touch and go there for a while though

    If Christian Wood wants to be great, like he says he does, just improving that one facet of his game would increase his scoring average 2-3 points a game. And it’s not like he can’t do it. He’s not a bad shooter. It can be fixed with him, but instead it’s getting worse for some reason. There is NO reason for him to be regressing in that area.

    Wanting the worst player on the court to be the main focus is a weird idea, but love is blind I suppose

    Looking forward to Tuesday's game. Hopefully no more "star struck" fever. Time to grow up a little.

    KJ needs more minutes. Also, Theis and Augustine should play minimal minutes. Augustine was supposed to be a vet playmaker but he doesn't do anything on the court.
    And Silas, please draw some plays for JG, he camped in the corners all game. Get him the ball on the move god damn it

    No he's saying put Green on the Bench where he belongs. He's not ready. He's physically not ready. He's mentally not ready.
    Unleash KPJ and just let him and Wood Ball!

    The offense looked dramatically better when playing KJ at the 4.

    Matt Bullard pointed out multiple times last season how Wood has some weird mechanics in his free throw shooting. I would hope with Bull being in the front office he is getting some time in with Wood.

    KPJ has 30 assists and 32 turnovers through the first 6 games. That’s our starting PG.

    Jalen Green can’t shoot. That’s our starting SG. But he does have 18 assists and 13 turnovers through he first 6 games.

    again… I’m not suggesting Jalen is Ja Morant out there lol. Or Rondo or anything.

    but I am suggesting you switch them up and see what happens.

    It can’t be worse.

    Silas is an idiot for having both House and Nwaba ahead in the depth chart.

    He had more assists rebounds and points on a better shooting % than your boy crush Mobley last nite. So it ain't all bad

    The Rockets Need to bring Wall back to teach the young guys live on the court. Especially on the Road. Wall is helping but more is needed in the game to help Green and KPJ
