    Honestly, KPJ didn't cause that man... That was a weak move by Alvarado.

    I highly doubt Rockets front office is better than that Knicks or the Bobcats team...

    When Rockets build around a low IQ player who is playing so so, it looks so stupid.

    KPJ has a role to play on this team as Jalens backup, but he can’t play it because we don’t have anyone better to replace him at pg for now.

    Starting lineup gets us in a deep hole.
    2nd unit gets us out of the hole.
    Dumb coach goes back to garbage starting lineup.
    We lose.

    Rinse and repeat.

    Lord help Sengun. Silas will punish him for fouling out for the rest of the year.

    He did the same thing to Jalen who was the 2nd pick!! Jalen Green's talent just got him out of the corner. Jabari going to have to find a way too. You see how Bari is trying to bring something since he never gets the ball 15 boards, 2 blks

    I turned the game on when it was tied at 106. That was a cluster**** of dumbassery.

    He's becoming a better playmaker and hitting the short range more consistently

    Alpi should be closing out games. I know I push back on aggresive Sengun fans a lot here and that might create a perception that I don't see his talent. That isn't the case and he really needs to close out games. That is too much talent just sitting on the bench in the 4th.

    Green could easily have had 40-plus if we ran some damn plays for him in the clutch. But it is what it is, I guess. Really efficient night with good playmaking and solid defense, especially in one-on-one situations.

    Don’t look now, but he’s strung together some great games in a row and he’s facilitating waaaay better than last year. Growth is growth.

    …now if only KPJ didn’t totally regress into a terrible lead guard today

    EGo used to be a good defender but he is awful now- we should be talking about this more.

    We need a Point Guard. Why?

    -Someone to play with Green. Green played better when Porter was on the bench, they do not play together.
    -Someone to setup Jabari to get his shooting going, Jabari needs a real point guard.
    -Someone to pass the ball to Sengun when is open.
    We got rid of Wood we need to get rid of Porter or place him on the bench and get a point guard.
