    Jesus, what the hell has Green showed that makes it worth the time to give him the ball?

    Knicks almost get high picks every season but they are still terrible. They’re wasting the high draft picks. We are on the same way with hiring bad coach like Silas.

    If Rockets are to win games, KMJ needs to be in the starting lineup. If we are to lose game, I'm okay with this game. There are some really tall trees in the draft.

    Win tomorrow, this road trip will be a success. Beating the next team will be our top 5 wins of this year.

    He should have kept Green in the game but Wood is not a closer.

    Green almost won the second game with the Lakers with his 3 pointers....he should have had a chance to win this game.

    You seriously think putting Jalen Green in, who was the worst player on our team tonight, over Eric Gordon would have put us in a better position to win? And you dare call me slow? Bihh, I'm a Ferrari doing donuts around you!

    Disappointed in not letting Green play down the stretch, I was not happy at all about that. On the brightside, these last 3 games the Rockets looked more competitive against these western conf contenders. THIS SEASON IS GOING TO TEST ALL OF OUR PATIENCE.

    I think people wanted Green to play with Gordon instead of KPJ.

    Although they were both horrible, Green did ride with Gordon on that run to take the lead late in the fourth

    LOL Well yeah there is more to playing basketball than making shots and certain lineups do better at certain times. You have to look at what each player is doing well and how the team played as a whole at the time certain lineups are in. We actually were doing well with green out there and KPJ sitting especially with KMJ and Sengun in the lineup. You can keep gordon and theis out there as well and for gods sake call a timeout. You wont understand what ive said because you're busy playing with hotwheels and eating donuts lol

    I don’t care much about win or lose.
    I care much more about how Green and Sengun grow through the games. That’s the most important thing for this season.

    If our veterans play selfish basketball, they should be traded. This team is not playing for their empty numbers.

    Completely dumbfounded by the coaching in the closing minutes of this match.

    I'm over the b****ing on this game now, on to the next one. Plenty of positives tonight. We were right in the game all the way, that's good, nothing worse than the kids just getting beaten down all the time. Sengun still showing flashes of excellence every game, great vision, shooting stroke looked nice, multiple nice looking defensive moments. Martin had a couple of really nice moments in there too. We've seen worse performances this year.

    Green has a way to go before I buy his jersey, though I was holding off anyway in case they trade House and switch the numbers ha. Sengun jersey is ordered and on its way though, by far my favourite player for this season so far.

    Green only fans are delusional.

    Silas benching Green was not the game killer, it was not calling a timeout.

    3ball via DHO, step back or catch and shoot.

    Green is just not at his best in half court because he is so limited offensively right now.
