    Tari must've been sitting on the bench in winning time wondering whether Silas was the coach again.

    Jalen had a solid game. 4/12

    Jalen played in the flow of the offense. Maybe half of his shots were shot attempts someone on a heater chucks up. Not someone shooting 33%.

    I guess when you've set the bar that low for yourself, anything can seem like a good game.

    Great win regardless.

    It's crazy how heated Bane has been towards Dillon in the two games he's played this season. He obviously got caught up in reading all the LeBron-fan fare media hating on Dillon in the offseason. Quickly forgetting how the two of them were boys and battling together for years.

    Well, Dillon sure reminded him tonight.

    Lol imagine getting a nice win and all you care about is Jalen Green. Lots of these posters are obsessed with Jalen and watch his every move just so they have something to hate on. Sad and pathetic tbh.

    If the first thought on your mind is how well Brooks played but rather how Jalen Green had another bad shooting game then you are unhealthily obsessed with Green and need to stop.

    Jalen wasn't even the worst player on the starters tonight but clearly some of y'all only have eyes for Green.

    Jalen has his fans on here but I haven't ever really liked him and now I don't trust him at all on the court. It's time to move on from him, period. Hell, I'll trade him for Bane straight up.

    Here's a couple screenshots. The security guards were blocking it. Cool move, cool hair, and cool dude Dillon. Sporting that Rockets emblem!

    Dillon Brooks has become my favorite defender since the days of Shane Battier, Trevor Ariza, Patrick Beverley, and PJ Tucker. Gotta love his grit!

    Oh sorry...Uncle Jeff had 12 points...so he would be the least productive of the 4 for12...Alpy had 15, Jalen 14 and FVV had 16 on 5 for 12.

    Jeff Green only took 9 shots....

    You tried, but there's no defending Jalen, he really is that bad at basketball.

    No...Bari was that guy offensively tonight. As regards Jalen.....I don't want us to do a knee jerk and be watching him play for someone else and sayin we should have hung with him longer.I have kind of followed Jalen...Auburn widely thought he was coming there when he opted for G-League (ditto Scoot Henderson). The first year in G League...a waste...playground basketball but with really good pay. First 2 years with the Rockets and Silas more of the same.

    These 22 games this year are his first games with STRUCTURE. Honestly the playground type basketball he is pretty good at it...Ime knows that type ball won't take us where we want to go. So, not only Jalen but Bari and Tari are all trying to found out where the "fit" is for each of them. It's a work in progress. If Jalen finds that sweet spot...it will be exciting. If he doesn't may end up elsewhere as could others. Ime is doing a masterful job of blending the youngster with the veterans.Dillon 40 mins. and FVV 36 mins.,leaning pon that experience and realizing Dillon has it going and the game really means something to him.
