    Naw okc is bigger than the Rockets. We are kind of a small team

    Giddey, Jdub, Chet, Shai, Dort are all 6'6 to 7'1!

    6'9 Sengun and 5'1 Holiday were just beasting them boys.

    I am with you there. I see the talent. I think it is the handle that needs to improve.

    Chet didn't play much. Thunder went small most of the game.

    i dont want Jalen working with KD he needs to work out with short players on how to get his shot off. like (ja morant) or DeAron Fox.

    You see Chet was working with KD with Jalen this summer. Chet has the size to do KD moves. We see the bag Chet got from KD.

    All those KD moves Jalen learned this summer dont mean sh*t when you're 6'4.

    The handle is bad, but I believe it's the mentality that must change.
    JG's still playing NBA Y2K instead of basketball.

    Duo of Sengun/Tari once again proving to be unstoppable when they're in the lineup together.

    Tonight: Net rating of +31.1
    Season: Net rating of +26.9
    They were our best duo last year under Silas also.

    Let this duo cook, Ime.

    Jalen looks on pace to becoming De'Aaron Fox which would not be bad at all.

    Fox being my favorite non Rockets player.

    But career stat progression and style of play seems similar.

    Yeah he needs to get comfortable doing dribbling out of pressure and basic guard stuff. All of the moves in the world won't help if you can't do that.

    Don’t think Alp was benched, he was a liability if he was fouled at that point. Played good defense and a lot of minutes.

    Lol at framing it like Chet just decided to not play for some reason. He was simply unplayable because Alpi is just too dominant for the unicorn.
