    The Reports is pointless if Referees aren't Suspended, Fined or even Banned.

    Agreed. No issues with DFS (Brooks replacement). Capela wasn’t needed with our gapping hole at back up PG (and now starting PG)

    If the Rockets trade for a Veteran PG and add more shooters at SG, maybe a Stretch 3 point shooting Center (Very Rare).

    How did Caruso get concussed? I don't remember him getting hit in the head at all, and pretty weird that they didn't pick it up during the game.

    Reed currently cant defend a traffic cone or complete a correct entry pass, yet you think he'd play for another NBA roster? Other guys who were in their 2nd & 3rd years didn't get these type excuses

    I'm happy because we became an offensive powerhouse.
    I'm not happy because our defense was horrible. Anyway. I hope DFS helps us in this matter, just like Dillon did last year.

    its only 1 game and it went double OT

    our pts per 36 last night was 8 pts worst than last year's avg

    while OKC's pts per 36 last night was 12 pts worst than last year's avg

    so if one was gonna make conclusions based on the first game of the season, one can say our offense got worse but our defense got better

    he got knocked in the head by Adams elbow on a rebound - I think in the fourth quarter? I can’t remember when it was but Sengun got fouled and made the rebound during the same play

    Sengun wasn't a volume 3pt shooter.

    And Jalen probably had 15 worse games than that. He was also in his 4th season after playing a lot as a rookie.

    Some reason you're unwilling to give Reed equal treatment? Is it because he's white?

    Reed isn't doing a large volume like Jalen.

    He has barely played so it's a small sample size. He has 682 minutes played in his career. That's roughly what Jalen did before Christmas his rookie year.
