    Was only watching on phone while Stros are on. He tried to get too fancy with dribble hand off passes. Some of them were in the guards too. Just sloppy.
    But they did play better with him on the court.
    Bruno should pair up with KPJ and Green with Alp

    Didn't know it was that bad, he gets too fancy sometimes and he needs to be stronger backing down down players. Tonight especially seemed he couldn't get the position he wanted.

    I posted this in another thread. It really does shock me.

    Fernando: 7 assists, zero TOs.

    Sengun: Zero assists, 6 TOs.

    Sengun shouldn't call so many timeouts.

    I’m not sure the law of physics are still sound considering I’ve heard Garuba and Fernando and seven assists in the span of thirty days.

    About what I expected. Young team, young coach.

    Am pleased with the result.

    Only real shift in thinking tonight is that it's just harder and harder to see Mathews as a long term rotation piece.

    Bruno ended up with the same number of assists as KPJ. o_O

    KPJ: 7 assists, 4 turnovers
    Fernando: 7 assist 0 turnovers

    The team has improved from last year such as rebounding and free throw shooting. We still need to work on our turnovers and our passing.

    Couldn't make any 3's, many, many missed dunks, and Sengun was a turnover machine.

    All in all, it was an encouraging game though, the Rockets showed how good they can be, they just need to put it all together.

    Fernando should be our PG. Start the movement.

    You should be! Especially if you’re a masochist.

    Technically was also his revenge game, he started in the NBA as a Hawk.

    It was crystal clear that demoting Sengun meant less screen, tired backcourt, lower percentage. It might work for KPJ's strategy but JGreen wishing non-Alpi starters was a suicidal.
