    Why are those fans still sitting in their seats during the Rocket's postgame?

    I love this team! It's so much fun to see all our players contribute together both offensively and on on defense. Everybody did their part. There is nobody I don't like on this team. I love the ball movement. No hero ball is what I call great team ball.

    J. Smith, Sengun, and VanVleet all getting double doubles is awesome! Those three are a triple threat. Sengun almost got a triple double, and I love having an unselfish player at center who contributes with so many assists. He's one of the best passing bigs in the league.

    VanVleet played such a great game, especially with 11 assists and only 1 turnover. He earned that +30 tonight.

    It's only going to get better the more Jabari, Jalen and Sengun get experience. How sweet is that?

    It will take time. The important thing to note is that our young players are gaining confidence.

    If Giddy suspended Vasa (Micic) will take the reign. No much difference.

    Rocket's basketball is almost becoming watchable. I am liking the emphasis on team-play. So glad Harden is no longer on this team.

    What I love about this team is that we have this young talent that can break out on any night....we have consistency from Alpy, FVV and Brooks most nights....Jalen has clearly gotten the memo and is turning things around. Bari is really starting to show that he can be an excellent top end compliment to this team. It is starting to look like rebounding, defense (yes defense) and teens like points on low double digit shots is the formula...it's his "fit". can he score more ?..yep. But,Jabari's biggest desire is to WIN. He works really hard to get better. I think you'll see continued progression...not just from Bari but Jalen and Tari. And, we still have Cam and Amen to unloose.

    Y'all, we just held the Nuggets to 86 points. This team is legit.

    Our defense is so much fun to watch isn't it? I love seeing a bunch of gritty, hustling guys out there fighting on every play who don't resort to playing dirty every game like some of those other jerks out there in the league.

    I can't understand what Jalen is saying sometimes during interviews. He speaks really low and mumbles sometimes.

    We looked good. But, keep in mind Denver's at the end of a long road trip, and also not at full strength. Let's keep it going.

    I wouldn't mind seeing Josh Carlton (former UH/UCONN player) on this team. We need some more height at the center position, he's 6'10" and has a nice post-up game, I'm not so sure about Landale.

    Another win with fantastic defense/offense, against another top-tier team, our consistency and getting a little better has been wonderful to watch.
    Our next step will be getting road wins despite ref home cooking, but this is great. Go to games, buy merch, and support winning!
