    My goodness you're unhinged, I had to put all your posts together here.

    We have bad spacing, I don't know what you think is happening that there's some conspiracy to lie to you about spacing. That's not changing. Amen Thompson can have any game he wants, that doesn't prove we don't have bad spacing you monkey.

    That's EXACTLY why I told you to TELL US what you think spacing is so that you don't come unhinged at a time like this grabbing any random stat to get mad. How could you possibly know from one player's in-game performance if our spacing is bad? It's because you literally don't know what spacing means dumbass.

    Now gtfo my face and go implode somewhere else while I commiserate with Rockets fans.

    Nothing Cam has done shows he could have done anything against a set defense.

    We need a intelligent scorer, not a tunnel vision bull in a china shop.

    I resisted saying this earlier in the series but I can't now. You can't look like a b**** AND play like a b****

    Can't really blame single person. Amen showed up late to the series. Fred woke up after 3rd game. Db was disaster in last 2 games. Alpi's fg% dropped etc.

    The main difference was experience. Kerr, curry, butler and green beat us.

    Is Jalen Green an intelligent scorer. I swear, it’s like you guys don’t even watch the games, you just regurgitate whatever the narrative is.

    You're a mess dude. I would never gut this team for Jalen Green. I was happily hard on him in the interest of the Rockets.

    I told you a couple of days ago tell us what you think spacing is so that you don't come back 2 days later, grab some random stat and act like that means we don't have bad spacing. I didn't think you'd self destruct like this but you're acting exactly as I predicted you would.

    Do you think what you say matters when you flat out don't know what spacing is? Do you think I can't say Jalen had a **** game and we obviously still have bad spacing?

    Get your **** together man.

    That's possible .... but in this new financial era, not many "Great Team's" will have cap space for that contract.

    When Jalen gave that excuse the other day that he is still young, he should have been benched

    It has nothing to do with Green. Cam has his own issues and he's just a dumb player on offense and defense and shouldn't see the floor against a team like GS in the playoffs.

    They probably should have given Jalens minutes to Holiday

    Forgive him, he is so in love with Jalen that he always forget to check his eyesight. To be fair, I think Jalen tried his best, he is just not that good. What's more pathetic is having extremists fans like him.

    How long is Jalens contract anyway I don't remember. We probably have a chance to trade him when it's an expiring

    It was a bad series. No way around it. How much do you weigh a bad series against his future? This wasn't exactly 36 year old Harden choking game 7 again. Obviously talented player and even though haters won't want to hear it in this moment especially he's still so young and full of great potential to be all the things we hoped. I know for sure if you defined me at 23 you'd have missed the best of me. But that was a pretty big dump he took.

    Idk how you do it in the offseason but he's got to make a real difference in shot making and consistency over the summer. If he's here next year it's gotta be gangbusters. Like, that next step for sure. Playing well with Alpe, playing consistently, playing decisively.

    Great players figure out and impose their will.

    Even with bad spacing Amen imposed his will, he's a great player, he is figuring things out
    Curry even with double teams and switches still makes a way to score
    Jalen did not.
    You think you're so smart with your armchair analytics, but spacing is a BS excuse used for average players, great players figure it out.

    Next time you talk to me, call me daddy.
