    Splash Gordon turns to "plop".

    I'd rather Green or Sengun airball the game winner with a play designed around them because that is the literal goal of this team. To develop the young players. That's two plays back to back designed for Eric ****ing Gordon.

    I'm tired of this coaching staff. I want a NBA level coaching staff.

    Gordon was wearing a Wemby shirt beneath his Rocket's jersey tonight.

    Sengun got a steal on PG. Sengun was stifling Zubac. Sengun was initiating the offense.

    why the **** would you take him out at that critical juncture?

    **** this.

    now back to poetry

    16 shots for Jabari & Sengun is not enough Stephen Silas.

    Sengun should probably lead this team in shots.

    At least they played better in the second half, and, IDK, looked like a real NBA basketball team. Hasn't been the case most of this year.

    And to be honest, close losses are probably the best result we can hope for this season. So it's not great, but it didn't feel after the game as if I had just chugged a pint of Drain-O, either. So I that's an improvement.

    Please just trade EG. I like him, he’s a good pro, he’ll always have his place in Rockets history… dude showed up in the playoffs when we needed him but it’s just time. Why is he taking the last shot?! These are exactly the type of games where you need to teach these young players. I don’t care if they lose, but we need to see some growth. The ball needs to be in KPJ or JG4s hands on that last possession, they’ve proven to be capable of hitting under pressure.

    Silas will be smiling tomorrow and giving a homeless man a $1000 to later find out that homeless man is a scam artist. Silas is just a loser.

    You said the key word "wish." Silas and drawing up plays? Come on now. Dude uses his whiteboard to play the gentleman's game of tic tack toe with Lucas.

    A Silas special tonight. They didn’t score again after Jalen Green missed the free throw and Silas took Sengun out of the game. A total choke job, and it’s really not okay. They NEED a win.

    I can see that we need to better utilize our bigs thru out the game. We are getting there. They used their experience against us, Right now we are pushing the bigtime teams. The more we are in these situations the better we will get. The coaching staff needs to to a better job substituting so that we gain matchup advantages

    This team is the new Sacramento Kings. Lots of Ls and no future in sight.
