    Looks like the Jalen from last March won't be coming back at the start of the season. Who could have ever guessed this would happen?

    There are a lot of open shots created for both teams. The difference was OKC making the shots while the Rockets bricking the shots.

    Without FVV we are a dumb team - just not a lot of cohesion out there....too many trying to do it all on their own.

    Let's see if Reed can sort out the flow.

    Jalen looks horrible, Cam took 2 stupid shots, Jabari doing too much.....just not team work.

    Bland offense is the same issue that Boston had. They were jsut a supremely talented squad but they also had a bland offense. Their offense improve by light years when Joe Missoula came onboard

    This is why I want FVV to play around 28 minutes, can't afford to miss him for a 5 game stretch again.

    Reed is more CP3 than Steph and Amen’s jumper is a WMD

    Still of a bunch of unorganized basketball with too much one-on-one and not enough team-ball. Reed Shepherd is gonna leave this mess as soon as he has a chance and I wouldn't blame him.
