    Can someone just name one thing that Jabari is good at?

    Jalen and Sengun are the only players who have star upside on this team, i'm not saying they'll be stars but they have it in them. There's absolutely nothing Jabari and Amen are good at.

    ESPN couldn't wait to slurp on Wemby some more.

    Of course he’s gonna have a hot night. That’s not the problem! If we just expect him shooting, go get Ryan Anderson. He is the dumbest player on the court.

    Sengun played OK defense the first 3Q .

    in the 4th , with carrying a bigger offensive load , he got tired . His effectiveness on D slipped .

    no excuse for jalen not to play with his hair on fire . I counted one play when he got in to help in the rebound . Mentally he was not great . Probably double digit layups/dunk throughout the game with him getting the blame .

    jabari tries man . It’s almost sad . I still have a little bit of hope . He reminds me of some
    Good -decent players like Landry and Patterson , but his body isn’t there yet . He’s got more upside than them tho .

    we might be praying come
    Lottery time again .

    hey like stone said , it’s not how good we are this year , it’s how good we are in *checks calender* 5 years .

    dude has gambled and is probably sweating bullets pretty soon .

    This. I can handle mistakes if you hustle and put effort in.
    That’s the disappointing part about Jabari right now imo, no fight. Alp made some stupid mistakes but he’s fighting

    Harden's been gone for like 3 years and this dude's still trashing him despite posting one of the best offensive stretches in NBA history in a Rockets jersey for a decade lmao. I swear one of the most common posters I've seen on this forum despite visiting it once every 4 months, and | don't think I've ever seen you say a single positive thing about Harden. The second best Rocket of all time, and all you did was trash him for a decade. Maybe just accept you don't like the guy, he'll be a first ballot HoFer with a Rockets hat on.

    He's already better than our last 3 top 4 picks combined ever will be.

    If this Contiunes with Jabari, Eason needs to start when he comes back

    Cam got a lot of fanfare, but as the pre-season went on and the talent he was playing against went up, his shots stopped falling. I'm sure he'll get his chances, but we're already seeing signs of the rotation Ime's going to settle in on. There's only a certain amount of minutes available, and like Ime said, he'd rather give a guy 6 minutes rather than 2 guys 3 minutes. Whether Cam squeezes in there or not, we'll see. In the meantime, Cam needs to work on his dribble, his shot, his passing, etc.

    I get it but they’re bigger and they go to the basket. We’re a team of finesse players. Never once thought we were cheated by the refs tonite. Go to the ****ing cup and you might get a whistle.

    At least it wasn't a blowout loss. Just win against the Hornets next Wednesday. If we lose the next 2, I think Clutchfans might burn down.

    I remember this one play Jabari Smith guarding a perimeter player, he goes past Jabari Smith easily and scores for easy layup.

    Jabari Smith yelling at Alperen Sengun when Alperen wasn't even close to the play.

    yeah but they were also playing a team that got the number 1 pick last year .

    can’t make big judgements off of sample size two …. Either way .
