    EVERY SINGLE Rocket is a NEGATIVE +/- on the court.

    EVERY.SINGLE.ONE.

    Every single Heat is a positive +/- on the court.

    Every single one.

    As a long time fan of the Rockets…
    I understand being patient..
    I understand rebuilding…

    This is tougher than I thought…
    I literally don’t want to watch it..
    It’s not fair to the coaching staff or the young players to expect winning but..This is excruciating..

    I can’t wait for my young guys to grow up…
    Until then…..
    We are gonna suck and it’s a hard pill to swallow…

    Forgot how emotional BBS members can get from one half of a preseason game.

    You’re right but it still doesn’t change the fact he has a ways to go. A lot of people get ultra sensitive about statements like that. It’s just the truth. Green has lofty goals for himself. I’m sure he’d agree he has a long road ahead to get to them.

    Same here, I guess it depends on what your expectations are. If you were expecting a group of 19 year olds fresh out of high school to blow out the Heat you might need to lower your expectations a bit lol.

    Really? Is this different from what you expected? For me it's pretty much exactly as I expected, and I'm loving it.

    By the way, did I miss something? Why hadn’t Tate played?

    What I'm genuinely concerned about:

    Wood still seems lost on both ends. Talented but lost.

    Sengun not getting enough playing time.

    No real offensive sets. Need more pick and rolls and more motion off ball. I would love to see a two man game between Green and Sengun where Sengun is on the high post and Green runs around screens.

    Good take. Miami has made it hard for him to go anywhere. They've pushed KPJ off his game as well.
    That's what I would expect a veteran team to do. But I love Green's attitude.

    Silas might not survive another season lol. Plenty more losses to come before our young guys get enough reps to possibly realize their potential. Such is the cycle.

    At least Miami didn't start the 2nd half with their starters. :D

    It's preseason so maybe they're not showing everything but the lack of offensive sets is the most concerning to me tbh.
