    KPJ had a bad game last yr but for that matter the WHOLE damn team including the coaching staff too.

    Silas knew Sengun couldn't guard Nurk, why not play Boban earlier. Nurk size effected the game all night. Outside of that, the backcourt was slumping again, the outside shooting is horrendous.

    They need to find ways to get Jabari more shots.

    We have no shooters, that's how we lost to Miami. Matthews is decent, Green has lost his confidence and KPJ is a scorer not a shooter.

    IGNORING YOU? You sound like my ex-wife. To me, this is just a form where I go to express my opinions; good , bad or indifferent, on the Rockets.

    We don't know each other, we are just fans expressing opinions. So why would I be AVOIDING OR IGNORING you....think about what you saying!

    Good morning.

    I’m glad KPJ gains new haters day by day as he fully deserves a massive hatred. Fire this street baller from the team.

    Personally, I think non-SOFs remember when there were ROFs (Rocket Only Fans) and not Player Only Fans and we can't understand it or we resent it.

    I think it started when LeBron went to Miami. Players really don't have a loyalty to teams anymore, so certain fans followed suit.

    I am not sure you are a rockets only fan. A rockets only fan would not suggest that.

    Definitely not a KPJ hater, as much as you wish I could join you. I’m a rockets fan and I care about the team before any player, unlike you SOFs. KPJ is playing of position

    oh not a hater yet. Don’t worry you will hate him more than me soon hahahaha.

    please stop this SOFs talk. Don’t you have something else to say? All repetitive monologues by you. Don’t you get bored.

    Don’t you get bored supporting one player over the entire team? Doesn’t sound very fun to watch

    you can check my other posts… I support everyone except KPJ. Maybe you are just blind and entitled to your opinion. Why don’t you try to be a bit openminded instead of making yourself a clueless hater of Sengun?

    You may support some guys right now bc Sengun is on the team. He’s the only reason you’re here. Were you a fan during the harden years? T Mac & Yao? Francis? Dream? Moses?

    What will you do if im still here after Sengun leaves? Will you shut your mouth that time or will you still keep talking gibberish? Of course I have been a fan since those years and except the years of Dream Rockets hasn’t been successful unfortunately because of delusional fans like you.

    As long as he supports the team, does it matter when he became a fan? I became a Rox fan because of Yao. Grown to love the team and stayed a fan even after Yao retired. I’m sure I’m not the only one. Don’t be so narrow minded.

    Like any knowledgeable fan realizes at best he's Jamal Crawford. He's just not a starter. Only his little cycle of die hards can't see this

    Lets look at Winshares/48 for this current season. The top 10 right now are:

    1. Jokic
    2. AD
    3. Luka
    4. Jimmy Butler
    5. Embiid
    6. Sabonis
    7. Curry
    8. Williamson
    9. Looney
    10. Durant

    Passes the eyetest, more or less.

    Where is KPJ?

    #178 out of 193 players. Also passes the eyetest. This is the dude the coaches chose to be our playmaker. This is just one stat of course, not the end all be all, but its one indicator that he (and Silas) are why our team is so bad. He doesn't elevate anyone else on our team, and is just a walking statpadder when the game is already out of reach. "We down by 15 with 3-5 minutes left in the game? Alright, it's Me-Time."

    Full list here,

    70 - Alperen Sengun
    95 - Tari Eason
    96 - Kenyon Martin Jr.
    165 - Jabari Smith Jr.
    175 - Eric Gordon
    176 - Jalen Green
    178 - Kevin Porter Jr.

    KPJ is the worst one.

    Nurk had 14 pts

    Lillard and Simon had 24 and 32 - most of which were made on the perimeter.

    Nurk’s size was not the issue whatsoever.

    We all had a drinking buddy that would always drive because that just what they did. They wound up with DWIs plural. Does said person have a drinking problem and you don’t just because they where diving? Y’all where together every time something happens good or bad. I think Porter is cast to the role of the driver. Coach has to see it but never changes. Is coach stupid or is Porter a stooge? Nix is the tell because it’s more of the same. What is the real goal here?
