    Harden used to get 50 pts if all starters resting.

    If he had decent IQ, he would be a better player.

    Are you guys dumb? Jalen is drawing so much attention and lakers gameplan is on Jalen! Do you expect him to carry these scrub or what? We are locked at 2 already.
    A win is him being healthy during the post season.

    If that's the game plan, why is he forcing and others are wide open?

    I'm as big of a Jalen fan as anyone and I've been as annoyed as I've ever been at him these last two games. If you're gonna get a half, then play hard for a half. If you get three quarters, play hard for three quarters. I know it doesn't seem like he's someone that cares a ton about stats but it would look good if he got some big scoring numbers. And plus it's good practice going against tough defenses without the help he's accustomed to.

    Did we not see how the Lakers left nate open and they wanted the ball out of jalen's hand? Do you even watch or do you just come to hate?

    Why in the world JG is playing. He must be dumb for chasing a meaningless stat.

    Naw you got true ballhoggers believing their game is great but shooting less than 42% on the season.

    Jalen has been playing way too cool for school lately. It’s what separates the greats. If they’re on the court, they’re trying to dominate no matter the circumstances. Sometimes I understand why fans of other teams have this bad impression of him. You’re playing against the Lakers dude.

    Reed is liability on defense but his playmaking makes up for it, however everyone in the Rockets refuse to pass the ball to him so why the heck is he even out there? Just Let Reed and Cam do the scoring Ime!

    I’m actually starting to worry playing this way is going to hurt Jalen’s confidence going into the playoffs.
