    I love EG. It's just Bane reminds me so much of him. Old school game, a tank built, deadeye three cries and throws a tantrum after every whistle or lack of it. Great player

    Sengun is doing a good job battling on the boards. If he can keep those TO's down I'd love to see how he does with hte second unit, especially if we go at him often in the block.

    EG will have a heart attack before halftime.

    Tari, KJM, and Sengun seems to be our best 3-man grouping so far. I don't think it's close either.

    Those same 3 brought us back last game too

    Man how good is coach Silas, Rockets looking very competitive to start the season against good teams. The rotations, the sets, his team culture building and player development. Love it

    LOL Mathews with +8 in 2 minutes, and no other stat whatsoever.

    Why is Jabari-Jalen-Sengun-Tari-Gordon not a thing. Al-P needs shooters and defenders around him.

    Imagine if we still had bum ass Christian Wood. This proves that we don't need him, at all. Defense is way better w/o him.

    Eric Gordon is strictly a me-1st player now... Just tell us he's here to get buckets and we can live with it... Quit acting like he's a good locker room guy.. He's here to throw up shots

    This is the only offense Silas knows. To have easier shots you need to move the ball.

    They are all hustle players, usually good things happen when you just hustle and pass and these three are ready to do both of those things.

    I think Sengun should start, I just think it's a lot better for the offense when we run the high picks because he can actually create for himself or pass it to an open man and really all Bruno can do is roll or give it back.

    @DreamShook is right.
