    The right way to tank: play well for 3 quarters than tank the 4th.

    Also, I think our guards have PTSD from Christian Wood last year, they're afraid to pass it into the post.

    This young rockets team has tremendous potential. But I strongly feel we need to lose organically to get Wembaya or Scoot Henderson and we will be a dynasty for years to come. Sacrafice now and win championships later.

    This time last year Green looked like he had never played basketball. Adjustment, Development, Adjustment, more Development, and.....

    This was my point. Yes Bruno is a lob threat NOW and looks good with KPJ but we are supposed to be developing these guys and Sengun's potential is far greater than Bruno's. I just wish this coach understood that.

    We need to start feeding EG the ball more so he can start going off, and then having big scoring nights, so that his trade value will go up, and then we can trade him.

    We are improved, but I'm not seeing the "significantly" part.

    I still hope one day JC will figure it out but right now he has extreme tunnel vision and is a major ballhog without the skill to back it up. However, nothing says he can't develop into a productive NBA player but I'm concerned about his ability to see the game.

    Lob threat? I don't even if that matters. I honestly questioned kpj ability to do those type of pass consistently

    Sengun played great tonight, along with Eason off the bench. Our best two players on this team is Jalen and KPJ but Sengun is definitely our third best player. The guy is a Double-Double every game. I still love Fernando starting because he gives us size and his athleticism is big for us. Eason needs to play more

    Man KPJ is so weird. He has star level pg handles. He can draw attention. He can slither in the pain. He can get to his spots. But the dude has tunnel vision. He has all the skillsets to be a good playmaker besides that tunnel vision. Frustrating.

    -31 for Jabari lol, not a significant stat in one game on its own, but that one stands out in a 7 point game when looking at the rest of the players

    Green definitely didn't look any better than Jabari did last season, and now he is consistently the best player on the team. People are impatient with him the same way they were impatient with Green.

    Sengun is slow and goofy AF. Trade him while his value his high. He’s good but not great.

    I don't really see a problem with Sengun matching up against team's backup 4 and 5. He can actually score on them easily vs having to bang in the post against Adams.

    Bruno's minutes should be matchup dependent, if the opponent put on weak post defenders, Sengun should get subbed in right away.
