    I see this quote used a lot as a joke, but Cam is legit 19 and he’s already an effective NBA player. I have a feeling he will be a monster on the court sooner rather than later

    SOFs piling on Jalen when we would have been down 3-26 in 1st gtr without him …

    He’s only one who was making shots til his legs went cause Ime couldn’t afford to sit him

    He made more 3s by himself then rest of team

    It is when you consider the context of the season, which you are not doing. I said they play better at home, much better. You tried to counter this claim because there can be nothing good about this franchise for you, everyone is a bust, the team is trash, etc etc but then when I mentioned of they are 5-4 vs 1-9...you had nothing for that but to say "ITS MEDIOCRE!"

    I mean you're the guy that thinks bad shooting MUST mean bad luck. Reminds me of a friend that once said "Shooting in basketball is pure luck!" you act as if the opposing team does nothing to try to make a team shoot worse, its just all luck. Some games you get lucky and some games you don't!

    If you're going to use the schedule to say they were 'lucky' then you also must use the schedule to say they were unlucky. Of course you won't do that though.

    Your argument is thus, when the Rockets win, it's due to luck, when they lose, it's who they are. How lazy.

    41% from 3 is excellent.

    The 3 for 10 from inside the line, 4 turnovers 2 assists were his problems. And amongst our problems, Jalen was the about the least of em tonight.

    He actually looked pissed about the loss, which is…rare? Maybe Ime’s been on his ass in the locker room

    Welp. I remember everybody was saying last season they don't care about wins just want games to be competitive.

    So at least there's that lol.

    Our team has lost so many games play in is now impossible. Time to tank. Shut down Sengun and start Landale. Don't wanna hear about back issues next year.

    The really sad thing is who DID deserve the lion's share of the shots tonight?

    Who was the "pick of the litter"?

    6 fouls on Sengun and he probably called for a review on all of them

    34% from the field.
    24% from three.
    My goodness, that was ugly.

    Started out well but couldn't maintain it. As much hope as I had...it's just not happening.

    He has played TERRIBLE these last few games. Missing open threes, being selfish on fast breaks…and his defense has been solid but unspectacular.

    Glad Ime sat him this game

    All this happened in the span of 2 minutes.
    Cam gets blocked twice but recovers ball and they call jump ball. Come on.
    Green gets lodged out of bounds, turn over no foul.
    Green drives, foul called on booker. Ok it wasn't on booker but O'neale clearly pushed off on his shoulder. Suns ball? Those were fts for Green.
    Sengun, 2nd, 5th and 6th fouls were all good contests.

    Why Brooks hasn't punched Booker in the ballz is beyond me. Needs it.

    Didn’t realize he shot that many times. Well he can’t say he’s not being used properly.
