    its baffling to me. The same dump down to sengun no movement. Really boring and tough to watch. Like we are seeing the same exact game every game the last 16 games or so. Caught in a loop of:
    Terrible FT
    Illegal sengun screen
    Careless passing and TOs with jalen losing the ball for no reason
    Terrible spacing
    Poor defense
    Poor inbounds

    every game

    This team is so hard to watch at times.

    Might’ve peaked in January.

    “Sometimes you, sometimes me, always us.” … That’s cute. 2009-11 Rockets think that’s cute.

    Since 32-14 (Jan. 28), 5-10. Wins over the Raptors, Spurs, Suns, Wolves & Bucks

    If it was a peak it was one heckuva run. It’s what many thought would be a whole season of wins.

    Maybe it would have been smart to make a trade at the deadline..

    A lot of times, it seems like the Rockets offense looks much better running through Adams instead of Alpi.

    Rockets used up all their hustle and energy 1st half of the season

    the way they were playing was too taxing

    Ime is not an in game coach. He's a vibes coach. His rotations and game plans have always been pretty awful and he knows nothing at all about offense.

    The defense is the only thing the team has going for them, and even that hasn't been very good lately.

    I have thought a lot of what we are going through is young team not used to 82 games. We just look tired out there since “the peak” as it shall now and forevermore be known.

    That's what you get with a defense-minded coach. It's just like JVG teams (minus the occasional leg humping).

    Dillon would be such a fantastic player--one of the best 3nD guys in the league--if he just had average court vision/basketball IQ. Every time you know he's gonna take it himself. Makes it too easy for the opposing defense.
