    We could score 150 and still lose.

    Green has had some really nice moments on offense tonight but the team constantly having to essentially play 4 on 5 on the defensive side of the ball when he's on the court is tiresome

    They struggle so hard with these switches and commiting to their man.

    Man if you don’t score 70 in the first half against the rockets you got problems.

    Agreed on being #1 option next season. I was thinking post trade deadline he averages 22-24 ppg with Wood and Gordon gone + more games under his belt

    second chance points kill us every game. We do a good job defending the first play, but the other team gets the offence rebound and score way too often

    Our best defense in this game is literally offense.

    For sure, but if we focus on just the negative we'll be suicidal by season's end. Definitely don't need to be knocking the few things we do well, enjoy it, it's all we're getting haha.

    Because I know offense will be the easiest thing to come, they are all offensively gifted.

    The biggest growth I need to see, and we should all want to see is DEFENSE, that will tell how close we are to competing.

    Rockets just need to hold this L. No halftime antics on Bills big night. Especially since it looks like they giving up already. 75 at the half???

    I'm pretty sure their biggest problem is they get down in the score way too fast and let it snowball.

    We aren't close, hence why some want more talent accumulation
