    Eric Gordon at least is putting up effort. It's just he is doing an amazing brick fest exhibition.

    Ryan Anderson is the most expensive bench warmer in the league. He hasn't even scored a point this series .

    You can't recover from missing that much.

    Same story last season. I'll be furious if they're still on the team next season.

    We've been fine with Ryno being trash all season.

    Eric Gordon though, smh.

    I knew Ryno would be a dud in the playoffs...I’ve pretty much given up on him

    Morey is paying this dude all this money to be useless

    the fans in the lower bowl who actually show up need to watch their heads when Ego is launching another patented brick

    Gordon and Tucker have had the yips with their finishing in the paint in the playoffs. They can overcome it just gotta keep attacking and practicing hard between games.

    Ryno has clinical depression. Excuse him from the team and leave him in Houston to sulk on his couch.

    I cringe every single time Gordon shoots a mid-range jumper. It's an AUTOMATIC brick. I wonder what his FG range is on these shots?

    Pump fake semi-wide open 3, drive in 8 feet, shoot wide open mid-range from 15FT, hit front of the rim, defensive rebound other team.

    you have to play Gordon despite how awful he’s been

    It’s on D’Antoni for playing Anderson though. Zero reason for that.

    Ryan Anderson is an absolute waste of a roster space.

    Everyone in the league knows he sucks. Even the Knicks that wanted no part of this scrub. Its not a mystery. To everyone except our coaching staff.

    The moment he comes in the game, the opposing team defaults to attacking him on defense and getting easy looks and baskets.

    And on the other end he is choking as usual. He is scared to shoot.

    I have never seen a bigger p***y and a mental midget in my life.

    Absolutely disgraceful.

    I dare anyone to come up with a good reason as to why he should be getting any minutes when we have Luc and Green on the bench.

    I thought the Rockets had depth but really don't..

    Ryno, Joe Johnson are almost unplayable. Luc is still recovering and probably won't be the same for the playoffs, Gerald is still a big liability on 3 and a zero if he isn't hitting his threes..Eric has been a dumpster fire disappointment.

    I really don't like the fact that Anderson isn't getting more minutes, especially when Gobert is on the floor. Ryan has played well against the Jazz, including that one game where he was absolutely on fire earlier in the season. He needs to get SOME minutes to get his rhythm back, its impossible for anyone to contribute big shots in just 7 min.

    That being said Rox could have won this game pretty easily if CP3 played better and they just hit a few more shots. No need to panic.

    Running a pick n pop with Ryhellno is laughable... I'd just run straight to rim to box out if I guarded him

    The Ryno signing basically destroyed our shot of winning a chip in the Harden era. No championship team can withstand a $20 mil player at the end of the bench.

    It's a testament to Morey's greatness that he fielded a 65 win team with basically $20M less salary.
