    Pretty clear what a hypocrite you are. The only reason you were crying about message board etiquette is cuz RS had a bad game previously.

    What happened to just enjoying the win? LMAO dont worry next time RS has a bad game I'll let you know.

    Finally, we get a glance at Reed's skill set.

    I expected a mauling but I didnt expect this kind of domination. Unfortunately I was at work and could only catch highlights.

    Also really good to see RS get some burn and play well. Hopefully he builds up confidence from this. Next game up are the Bucks. They have a losing record but its gonna be a B2B and Giannis and Lillard are always deadly. Hope it isnt a trap game.

    If he has this team peaked too soon, he is still getting criticized though. It is just unpopular now.

    Comes with the job title. That being said, he deserves all the flowers thrown at him.

    Fatigue shouldn't have much to do with tomorrow because nobody played 30 minutes tonight. But the schedule is gonna really bite in a few days.

    This was just the first of 3 back-to-backs in a wicked 7 games in 11 days stretch.

    Would you rather we lose to bad teams?

    There was a timeout where they had cameras on the bench getting up and Cam was laughing/joking at least. But he was wrapping himself up and saying something like "I'm cold bro, I'm cold" and joking with Jabari I think. Like he's getting freezed out.

    Cam was noted as having attitude issues in the draft. Ime's not about the nonsense. One guy didn't play feels kind of like a message to get on the boat and row or enjoy the bench.

    Beating a bad team is one thing. This was a blowout, one which had no fake comebacks and pretty sure they were up by 25 for an entire half.

    Also we're 10-4

    When your team

    1. shoots below 30% at 3 and win by 35+
    2. win streak in convincingly dominating fashion with each game having at least one young core play like dog sh$t
    You know your team is onto something nice.

    Those are just making things complicated.

    The gist of it, is that Cam has no room on a stacked team right now, and would have played more if he was on the Bulls, with the Bulls having no ambitions to be a deep Playoff team.

    The first step towards being a truly good team is consistently beating lesser teams in a routine manner.

    They are playing extremely well this season after the meh first few games. It is a lot of fun to watch good basketball again.

    The rebounding differential - 66 to 47 in favor of the Rockets. Wow!

    Tate sighting !!!

    I didn't know dude was still alive. He went from a starter to an afterthought in 3 years without getting old.

    This awesome dominating win allowed the bigger names more rest for the 2nb2b tomorrow. Rockets are playing hard and they have talent. A top 4 seed could happen if they can muster an average 3PT% by season's end.
