    Should have expected some improvement but instead they were somehow unequivocally worse than last year

    was planning on attending the home opener as per usual, but I’m worried now

    we play the Warriors, and lawd have mercy if I witness bullsh*t like this in-person after we done spent 60+ mil in free agency and guys like Green and Sengun are in their 3rd season

    I’ve never booed the team at home, but I swear on everything…

    I’m not tolerating BS bad basketball for the 4th year in a row

    Organized basketball is not NBA level

    You can't have a losing culture where guys can do anything they want and expect that guys will have good habits nightly. The way the Rockets were run the past 3 years is not normal.

    I remember last year Jalen Green was talking about this year being a 'learning' year day 1. Not the kind of stuff you want to hear even if its expected your team will suck.

    Waited for what felt like the longest ever offseason and we get rewarded with this **** sandwich of a game?

    It’s so irritating. Alpi looked good and FvV + Brooks were fine. Everyone else (ESPECIALLY Jalen) put up stinkers and we were out-rebounded like a middle school team vs grown men.

    Next game might be more of the same unless our team gets some big boy pants

    Maybe Jalen is just a bad student? Doesn't seem to be learning much.

    Lol thank you, I'll never forget that. It's a player punting on a season day 1.

    It's fine for the GM to say it but to hear a player saying it DAY 1 OF A SEASON...hell no.

    Meanwhile CJ Stroud after 1 game "I don't believe in moral victories."

    Just saying.
