    It depends on Silas if telling his ballhoggers to pass the ball. Did you see that Sengun stood there nobody passing him? They only care padding numbers to earn big cntract.

    The refs are horrible.

    The Heat players can't be touched. They can get the whistle anytime they want.

    When is Christian Wood going to grow some balls and grab big rebounds. Also down low, he does that little bounce under the rim and it gets him in trouble. He takes off balance runners as if he is going to make them

    Green only has 6 shots in half. It's not enough for 2nd pick player development.

    Why do the rockets only take shots at the rim or at the 3 point line? Very seldom do they shoot from mid-range.

    4TO at halftime are not a few. He's also been really bad at transition defense, as always.

    I was on Silas hard at the start but a lot of these guys are just not playing well.

    Rockets team is made up of JAGs, actual teenagers, and a wannabe all-star...it is what it is.

    unfortunately, that’s what you’re gonna get when u have a young bad team full of guys trying to establish themselves

    I bet most of the roster is happy post-game if they have a good statline in an L and will re-post their highlights on IG

    Wood probably all smiles and texting his boys if he drops 30+ in a 20 point beatdown

    I'd be even more impressed if that were true. It would be a helluva savvy move.

    But given the kid barely weighs a buck fifty soaking wet, I'm not so sure, lol.

    Wood and KPJ both have a bad habit of taking an extra second or two to make a decision, after which they no longer have an open shot nor an open passing lane.

    There was a play where Jalen dribbled out of the lane and passed out to KPJ, then reset at the three point line. KPJ hesitated and held the ball, didn’t throw the pass back to Green, then got trapped in the corner. He then dribbled into a turnover. So frustrating. Just pass or shoot. Don’t hold the ball.

    PIE IS A NUMBER ONE DRAFT PICK

    My guess is never. It's the reason he's not a max contract player. He'd rather just shoot 3 pointers rather than do the work of a Big.
