    FVV kind of killed our rhythm in the second quarter by taking too many shots and holding the ball too much.

    Otherwise, we’re just playing down to their level…no excuse for Alpi and Jalen not to play better

    Another pathetic performance. Oh well. Could be another bad home loss. Rocket don't have a clue on defense.

    This team still can't ****ing close a quarter. Could've pushed the lead and instead 4 point lead.

    Alpi and Jalen look horrible out there. What the hell is going on with the starters lately? The bench seems to do a much better job almost every game.

    Everything going in so he got stuck in shoot first mode

    Also Alpi having an off night against Duren so his favorite target isn't working

    This is shaping up to be the pistons first winning streak of ‘24 - how we’re only up 4 on a 3 win team is pathetic.

    Mr Jalen green is also on pace for one of his signature stinkers……

    First part of the year Cleary was a fluke defensively.

    Either that or Dillon Brooks is the key to the Rockets defense.

    I knew the #2 in defense was kind of a mirage due to good shooting luck and expected to drop, but this is a very mean regression
