    Hypothetically, agreed. Psychologically, I'm not sure every human has the same adaptability as others. For example, Cam can't seem to do it although he's strong and willing to be tough.

    The Booker we're seeing this season is after being pushed by Budenholzer to play the best defense of his life. I don't think he has as much room to grow there as a 21 year old Green going from Silas to Udoka. Plus he's just about to start declining athletically.

    If Udoka isgoing to collapse his offensive efficiency even more than this, I'm not sure why we're even considering it.

    Rockets are tired! If they lose, this is on Ime and the coaches

    What a huge set of plays Jalen made there to decide the win.

    Secured the loose ball to prevent the turnover.
    Found the wide open shooter.
    Secured the offensive board and scored the put back.

    Jalen coming in mid-4th quarter was a huge boost and they would have lost to the Bulls without it.

    Unfortunately, the Rockets (including Jalen) seem determined to make things difficult on themselves.

    The Joker heave was a little off. But your wording is accurate.

    Booker can only do this in his dreams.
