    That's just factually inaccurate though kiddo. When it comes down to it, I don't care about ANY of the players on the team....I'm a fan of the team. Every single one of them WILL be replaced eventually and I'll still be around. I don't get emotionally attached to any of them.....because I'm not a child.

    Let's call this an unfortunate understatement... Or nah.
    I know you watched the game.
    Reading your take, I can safely deduct you are either ignoring facts or distorting them.

    The real answer to this is swap Tari and Bari. The thing is, we aren't trying to win games. We're developing.

    Yeah....I'd kind of like to do that too, but I understand that you don't do that to high draft picks no matter how poorly they play.

    Ryan Hollins made a comment during the game that KPJ was the Rockets most consistent player and that Bruno was the most vital, because of his connection with KPJ.

    Normally, I think Ryan is a little over the top or overall dramatic but I respect his opinion because he played PROFESSIONALLY.

    I think he may be correct

    I liked JC emerging from winter hibernation to actually play well

    I also liked that there was no EG to make my eyes bleed

    Tari made his layups

    I liked that they at least competed after being down 25

    Only positives were Josh making the most of his minutes and even bothering to play perimeter d
    Jabari attacking the rim a couple of times.
    Eason and Garuba's rebounding
    and Eason's momster wearing this

    Hollins is literally always drunk off the Henny during game time…

    KPJ is the most consistent? Bruno the most vital? Lol, really?

    I will more than happy to discuss all the possessions one by one and if you can argue that when sengun is in, the reason why we fall behind is Sengun, I will accept it. But it won't happen. Because I do it myself. After the game watch all the possesions and analyze them.

    Sengun almost exclusively plays with Gordon-porter-kpj trio, who are really bad on d. That is just a bad five defensively, and mainly because of perimeter defense, not sengun's defense. If the guards shoot bad, it gets a lot worse. And they play against starters of the other team. The 3 guard line ups don't work, regardless of who the center is. And when Sengun is court, rockets are less willing to use him other than a post-up player.

    I think bruno is very good for his role, a back-up center. You just take it to ridiculous levels, mainly because KPJ badly failed at what you expected him to be and you want to **** on other players to make that go away. If KPJ had half the success sengun had, you would claim he should be offered max money.

    BRO I AM NOT. I have been watching him all year. I love Sengun but he can take criticism just like anyone else. And he just cant stay on the floor against the Warriors.

    And you need to stop disrespecting me just because I do so. I dont attack you when I disagree with you. So please be civil.

    So then you'd agree he has chemistry problems with the starters....does that mean you'd also like to see how Sengun would do running the second unit...or do you want to bench all of the starters to cater to your guy?

    Yeah, it's hard to beat anyone when you make a grand total of 3 shots from outside the arc. That has to be a record all time low.

    Well we saw what the team look like when KPJ missed a game and now that Bruno is back, they have been winning the paint....just got to get the 3pt shooting fixed

    They have produced nothing of note together. Our most important pieces are Jalen and Sengun. The fact that this needs to be stated shows that the Rockets have an organizational problem.
