    I’ve got a bad feeling. Don’t like our chances. Perhaps we can take out their mascot as a consolation prize cause a victory is a huge ask with all our players who are out. Oladipo better have his Michael Jordan game on. It’s going to take the whole village.

    I'm not opposed to him starting because I'm not too concerned about winning right now, but this is a dumb way to look at his stats. Plus, why is 7 assists in 10 games supposed to be impressive?

    Oladipo and Cousins (and Wall) don't do back-to-back games, right?

    So is Wall playing?

    It's ridiculous that Keith Jones hasn't learned Mr. Miyagi tricks by now.

    1 what if hes hiding him for teams not to ask for him in ongoing trade discussions?
    2 what if hes given a promise to others about pt as long as they continue to hold their end of the bargain (eg keep practicing 3s or whatever)
    3 what if its a negotiation tactic since hes yet to sign the real contract?

    Only because Silas is not MDA they complain about everything. When in fact, if MDA was actually here, Mason would never even see Toyota Center because he would be in Rio Grande Valley. Lol It's always something. They just can't let go. How quickly they forget how much of a bad coach MDA is. Harden is what made this team good, before he got lazy and quit. Not MDA. Rookie should be happy he's getting a opportunity.

    Back to back, dudes! This is turning out to be a fun weekend. Not sure what the lineup looks like tonight, but it sure would be nice to beat the mavs no matter who plays. Go Rockets!

    I remember back in the day there was a group of posters just straight ragging on Keith Jones every day for months on end because of our roster injuries lol

    Even with Wall back
    I'd rather watch his develop
    than Watch Wall trying to prove himself

    Yup, been saying this. Don't like Oladipo as the main PG. Give me Jones, Dipo, Tate, Tucker & Cousins tonight.

    We really need to find our long term options for Cousins and Tucker and probably Dipo
    We know Wood will be in the starting line up
    but man . . . We cannot rely on Tucker beyond this year.
    It is not fair to the man
