    He’s probably too busy trying to avoid the longest losing streak in NBA history :p

    Yeah Sengun and Jalen just doesn't do well against this team. But they held it together and didn't make too many mistakes to throw the game away

    Good to see the lid come off the basket for Brooks!
    So happy for him to get the W in Memphis!

    And best of all Uncle Jeff only had to pay 19 minutes so he should be good for at least 20-25 tomorrow night in case Amen and Tate can't go again!

    Ime don’t bench players for not making shots. He bench player who takes poor shots and not playing heart out. Jabari took open shots so there’s no reason to punish him for it.

    Wow, this game had me hype more than any other game this year. How cool was it to see his ex mates dapping him up. We got a guy who obviously gives it all to the team. GG Brooks GG Rockets

    It's about the process, not the results.

    Memphis decided to move on from Dillon after the fact that Morant was handed down his punishment from the league. That never made sense to me. They needed his toughness and heart even moreso than ever when they knew they were gointo be without their best player. Dillon, JJJ and Bane would’ve been enough to keep the boat from sinking while Ja served his games

    There were a lot of things I liked today—FVV deferring the ball handling duties to Jalen in the second/third quarter to get him going, Alpi not forcing the issue after a rough first quarter, Jalen making swing passes and not trying to do too much late in the 4th, DILLON BROOKS going ham and Bari’s defense (and of course Tari with a bunch of hustle plays)

    I truly think this is an unselfish team that is still trying to figure out how to play with each other. It’s fun to watch them grow together, I feel kind of sad that there seems to be more discourse on the negatives than the positives of a very surprising season so far

    Also, Jabari played some GOOD defense tonight, and we know that will make Udoka happy.
