    durant is not known for being able to run an offense either. Booker is just a fully evolved version of Jalen Green and durant still wants out

    Typical brain dead haters talking about Jalen when turnovers is what killed us. Jalen didn't shoot well but was solid.

    Amen actually underperformed, i expect better in the 2nd half. He low key got benched last 5mins of 2nd.

    Bari and Alpi have this horrible habit of getting right in middle of paint and wanting to dribble with 3-4 defenders swiping

    3 weeks ago.

    The next 24 minutes will give us an idea of how long this series will be.

    We wouldn't need him to run an offense. We just need him to have every shot Jalen has.

    This team would be infinitely better if that was the case.

    Right. Ask the Nets and Suns how that worked out for them...

    Pretty brutal half. Houston looks predictably awful in the half court. They aren't forcing Warriors turnovers and it's putting more pressure on the offense to score in the half court. They haven't played bad defense, but the offense is stuck in gear because no one is playing aggresively except Tari and Alpi.

    Jalen has 3.5 games left in his Houston career if he continues to play like this.

    True, but Jabari loses the ball wherever he dribbles.

    That would be ideal, but that may not be available. I wouldn’t give up a ton for KD, outside of a couple of picks and Cam

    Haters being 100% right about this Rockets team is so damn depressing.
