    Tough days ahead for Jalen if he doesn't get his shots to fall.. Can't back him too much longer with this bullshit .

    Ime is needs to stop with the Tate, Holiday & Starters line up

    I loved the final line up. Been saying Brooks and Tari at the 2&3 will work

    Can wait to see our 23 draft classes Amen & Cam showing up when our previous picks are having bad night

    He’s a far better scorer and rebounder than both those guys (I love both of them) and it’s only year 2. He’s got real star potential.

    It’s almost as if there are other factors at play, such as making sure guys are rested for the fourth. Again, Ime is much, much greater than you and will always be.

    I could see us trading him next season and getting a short contract from another team before going back to the G League. Dude is not an NBA player

    That was a fun club. If you could just induce fly balls you could be a major league pitcher in the astrodome :eek: era of seven on the road, one at home lol!

    Amen-Cam-Tari-Jabari was the summer league starting line. They'd start with some big mug lookin like Jock Landale and sub him out for 5'8" Trevor Hudgins like it was nothing. Absolutely gassing teams with those 4.

    Sengun is no Jock Landale but I think he'd do alright with those 4 anyway.

    I mean this was never in doubt really.

    I was never worried even when they started to come back, they just don't have enough right now to compete and thankfully Rockets know how to play well enough to beat bad team which should not be taken for granted.

    Thing is this probably a loss if it were not for Ime willing to sit whoever for who will win the game.

    If we finish this game with Jalen and Alpi we probably lose.

    You think Green is an NBA talent at this point?

    Anybody can and will be benched if they aren't bringing it.

    Cream will rise, and if somebody can't we should find out now.

    Jalen starting to worry me

    he really struggles to finish at the rim in the halfcourt

    as the weeks go by, that jumper looking more gross than raisins in the potato salad

    every time he shoots, I literally pray and beg the ball to go in…no joke

    I used to do the same sh*t with Jabari last season

    basketball jesus, please, help him

    Missing wide open shots, dribbling into defenders..this has got to be one of his worst games of the season—following one of his previous worst games of the season.

    He was benched for a reason, and he will continue getting benched if he plays like this.

    It’s all in Jalen’s hands now.

    Or he could just be rewarded with more minutes. No shame in being a 6th man.
