    There is growth because coaching happening, but the in game coaching / rotation needs work. It is puzzling that House & Theis gets minutes over Garuba.

    That’d be nice but I don’t see him shooting that against NBA level defense for a season. Defenses will adjust.

    That’d be nice. It’s a high mark though.

    Just 33'ish? That's not very good. Green's problem, even in G-League play was he was inconsistent from 3. It was almost like he was all-on or all-off. I hope he's more consistent.

    Also, he basically rimmed out at least 2 or 3 other 2-point shots or his stats would be even better.

    This is a major head scratcher. Also Still not seeing KMJ is just as frustrating.

    Eagerly awaiting our second win vs Detroit on Nov 10. JG can finally break that rookie 3ball record.

    Yes, I’m aware that 33% isn’t good. I feel like he’ll be somewhat streaky from distance. Not exactly sure why I feel that way but I do. He may be a tad better than 33% but I don’t see him sustaining 38-40%.

    Hope to be wrong though.

    Not a fair assessment...Harden was the only other player besides KD in double figures. Where were the rest of the Nets Team?

    I honestly wouldn’t know. The only sub .500 team I pay attention to is this one.

    Looks to me like Christian Wood needs to watch some film on closing out on three-point shots. Time and again he left people wide open. If he made commitments to fix his spacing on D, this young team would improve a lot.

    Didn't like the game tonight...the Rockets play too helter-skelter, hence all of their turnovers. Slow is down a little bit and use more basketball smarts instead of physical abilities. They won't have a winning season until they do. jmo

    That's another way of saying it.;)

    I'm hoping by the All-Star game they are playing more like a team than a group of athletic players.
