    Smith guarded Hali pretty well, Hali didn’t do much when Smith was guarding which we should’ve done more

    Jalen even can't score in a wide open 3 or fast break...

    That's what I'm saying and that's the problem. Rockets need someone better than Aaron Holiday and Jalen Green.

    I wish we could trade Jalen from this season for Jalen post all-star break last season. Kid has talent in spades but he's either lost his head or his heart, and I'm not sure which would be worse.

    Despite the 3Q bombardment from Haliburton, this was a very winnable game. Rockets shot 5-24 from 3, which is 21%. Many of those were wide open shots. If they had hit just 2 more of those, they would have won.

    Smith 0-5
    FVV 1-7
    Green 0-3

    1-15 from those 3 starters.

    Dang tough game! Jalen should have been pulled much much earlier in the 3rd. Really wish Jabari or FVV could have been on at the three point line. Tari gotta hit some of those around the rim shots but overall It's great to finally be invested in games this year.

    Go Rockets

    Adam Silver wanting the Lakers and Warriors in the Play In and Rockets out of the Play In. Rockets are a Lottery Team again but with no pick given to OKC.

    Great thing I Box Score watch

    NBA Where Rigging and Corruption happens with Crooked Referees.

    I was hoping Detroit would win one of the two against the Nets. I don't want the Rockets to be the team they break their losing streak against. lol.

    Ime is wrong about Jalen. I get it, he has his deficiency, but he's not running any play for him. He's not a set shooter, he's a rhythm player. You can't put him in the wrong role and expect him to thrive.

    Basically this.

    Jalen is so bad we are having to rely on Holiday to play long pivotal stretches.

    I think theyve got to try to integrate Cam some way to see if he can play at this level right now because we basically dont have a shooting guard at this point.

    it’s sad seeing him playing like this

    whoever worked with him in the summer failed him…he did not get better, he somehow got worse

    y’all give it up for the new star of the Philippines Basketball Association

    that’s how bad he’s been lately
