    Playing faster?

    Rockets have led NBA in pace for entire season.

    It's the turnovers, FT% and 3P% exacerbated by poor spacing that killed us.

    Wood return to 5, Theis DNP and better 3P shooting (GM) due to better spacing has transformed this team.

    The main reason the rockets won the game is Wood, he is back but we cannot forget our new three pointers shooters(Matthews and Brooks) Matthews was great today and we need his 3 point shooting to also win this game.

    I still think Porter need to shoot better he had 5 turnovers and Sengun needs 25 minutes and 8-10 shots a game.

    I wasn't able to watch the game live, but I noticed some things from the stats. Our shooting was just short of NBA standards (45% &35%) at 41.7% & 32.6%. However it was much better than their shooting. The big surprise was that we outrebounded them by 15 & they're basically our size underneath. Also we won all 4 quarters! Nice game overall. Now is 3 in a row our version of a hat trick?!

    The Rockets have woken up, big time. Long may it continue.

    I honestly think he was handcuffed by Stone until people were calling for his head. Benching Theis was the obvious thing to do a long time ago and now he's just politicking with quotes like this.

    Hope you're right for Rockets sake.

    But wishful thinking IMO.

    It helps when they shoot 7-43 on 3's. They even scored 13 more FT's than us.

    I did not know that was Bryant Reeves son. And to think I learned of it while he played the Thunder.

    Wood was aquired to contend. Wood is not going to bring us a championship. Is he better than he has played this season? Possibly. That is the extent of it though. Wood will be traded if the return is right. Only way they give him a max is if they plan to move him before our young players need it.

    Wrong, he wasn't a ready-made player when we got him. He had a few good games at Detroit, he wasn't a star and now he is a part of the centrepiece of a rebuild. You need these kinds of players. No one would have thought he would be this good when signing, it is why his contract is pretty good for us

    We cut out the fast passing from the back court. We threw the ball away with some passes that were just not there to try. The long passes just didn't work at the start. We have stopped doing those hail mary passes a bit and getting more decent passes going.
