    I would seriously play Stevo limited minutes to protect him until the playoffs. dude is seriously the most important player.

    Hard to feel good about this, but it's better than losing. Not exactly what I would call a bounce-back win. Should have been a blowout.

    Good thing Jalen came ready to carry the burden with a very impressive 32/11.
    Good thing Steven Adams is on the team because the Rockets would be lost without him.
    Good thing the guys brought their FT game; hard to believe they went 26/29!

    Rockets look like a train wreck heading to the playoffs. Cracks are showing. Lots to be concerned about.

    More and more often Jalen is showing ways to be dominant without hot three point shooting.

    He was dog **** from three today and still was easily the most dominant player on the court tonight.

    Hawks have been mediocre and stuck in their rebuild for almost a decade. Good to gain some perspective from other organizations

    once again, almost let a scrub team back into the game (also the entire SE division is trash this year.... no winning records!)

    I keep on stating that Jalen Green has turned into a great NBA player, but apparently not too many posters believe it.

    Also, Jabari is pretty clutch when buckets are very much needed. Hit 2 huge 3s when Atlanta was within 5 points. Need to look for ways to get him open for those corner 3 pointers.

    Conceded too many points in the 4th again, but fortunately they came through without Amen. Playing him without adequate healing has led to him missing another game. What is going on here?

    I mean, train wreck is a bit much. They’re 9-1 in their last 10 games. Our standards may be a bit high. This team is still overachieving.

    He can, sure

    More often than not he just looks like he did tonight though, except he jacks up even more shots and makes fewer 3Pers per attempt

    Yeah, some people are not even a half empty kind of outlook in life, pretty much everything they see is empty cup even though evidence says otherwise.

    I’m pleased. Seems we’re ramping up our reps of newer offense … combined with adding the double big offense. (See Ime’s post-game comments.) mistakes are being made, but now is the time for that, and for fine-tuning.
