    Kenyon Martin Jr-Alvin Gentry reunion was very sentimental, very human.

    Nice to see some humanity after that brutal Matthews incident.

    Porter Jnr is starting to find his three point shot more and more recently. Much better than at the start of the season.

    Gordon always shoots well, he's been straight up fire this season

    Guys.....some of you have still havnet come to the realization that we are a BAD TEAM. We are bad. We are young. I know everyone wanted us to be ahead of schedule but it is what it is man. Its gonna be a rough time for a lil bit. Unless we hit big in the draft.

    Kings announcers were doing their best to say Fox didn't foul Garrison in a Flagrant way.

    No doubt. He's still playing out of position. 6 TOs tonight, which is now what I've come to expect from him at PG. He is best when he's in attack mode, when he's looking for his shot first. Right now he's an SG who brings the ball up and when forced to do PG activities underperforms, but when focused on scoring contributes.

    you could wake up alperen in 2.00 am and hed beat the **** out well rested wood 1 on 1

    wood is 2 levels below alpi... its insulting to alpi to even compare them...any player can have a bad game especially when hes playing 12 minutes a night and he just spent 2 weeks recovering from an injury not playing at all

    Houston 8-7 in Porter Jnr's last 15 games played............He adds a little bit of everything

    KPJ played 36 minutes (you folks knocking him about his +/- are wrong)...bringing the best D the Rockets have. He went for 23/7/4/2 5-9 from downtown...Yeah, the 6 turnovers were rough, but...Silas bringing him back when he did kept this game winnable for us. He was HUGE tonight.

    Anyone watching the game can see the improvement, and the impact on us winning.

    We need a PG. Sheesh, my eyes! Some of these youngsters would maybe stop running around like beheaded chickens if they just had a PG imposing some floor order. Until we get a PG, we'll have to hope Sengun can play more minutes-- at least we'll have a point center.

    Gary Bird really scares me with some of those crash landings.

    They intentionally killed Alpi's game. 0 rebound, 0 foul, some forced 3s,..

    We want our natural player back, fighting for rebounds, making fouls, shooting within painted area.

    Rockets has Wood, no need another ballerina.

    Winning in spite of 22-12 turnover ratio is kinda crazy.

    Porter - 6
    Jalen - 4
    Tate - 4
    Wood - 3
    Sengun - 3
    Gordon - 2

    Ball control *clap clap*

    Eric Gordon was +26 while the rest of the roster ranged from -6 to +8. I didn't catch the game; any eye-test reason for that?

    Im not in a bubble. Harden isnt a selfish player. He deferred plenty to Cp3 and Russ whenever they were here. He defers to KD and Kyrie right now. Yea he holds the ball a lot but that doesnt mean he's selfish.

    How did you watch that game and come to the conclusion that more minutes for Sengun would've made it easier? I love Sengun, he's my favourite current player, but his second half was garbage tonight.
