    Jalen had one shot in the closing minutes. He definitely need more touches. As he gets older, he will demand the ball and become the closer the Rockets need

    Eric Gordon running the point is always a turnover. Well, I can't wait for the next turnover machine to come back, KPJ. It's back to embarrassing 30-40 point losses. Professional coaches that are dumbasses

    Very strong and effectiv game from Green. It was a close game. Silas cant manage the crunch time. Its sad to see that they lost again after so hard fight.

    He'll be a 20+ ppg player by season ends (20ppg+ for the second half of the season) on good efficiency and it's going to drive some people nuts

    Rockets played hard but the stupid mental lapses by our “veterans” were ultimately too much to overcome. That said if the Rockets played with this energy and intensity every night I don’t think we’d be 1-15.

    Jalen Green starting to round into form. Needs to be more assertive, still, but the game is clearly slowing down for him and his efficiency this last couple of games has been good.

    Sengun is amazing, nuff said. And KJ is a walking highlight and game changer.

    For all of Wood’s talk about being a leader he sure doesn’t play like it on the court. His mistakes (among others) might have cost us a win here, and Gordon’s botched job of running PG in the 4th didn’t help either.

    hopefully…it sucks seeing him just standing in the corner play after play while everyone else messes up and bricks, especially when he’s playing well

    the decision to immediately foul was baffling.

    I listen to the opposing teams feed, and they were confused as well. Even later on when they should have been fouling you don’t immediately try to foul you try to get a steal first.

    That would be ideal Rockets lineup end of the season.

    Trade Wood, Gordon and Theis
    Bring Simmons here

    Simmons - Green - Tate - KJ Martin - Sengun

    Next year, take Banchero and put there.

    I was perfectly fine with his role. I don’t think he needs to be “the guy” all the time.

    when he lets the game come to him right now he’s better.
