Rockets coach Ime Udoka said he made the change because he wanted a smaller and more defensive-minded lineup. "He knows his role. He's keeping it simple," Udoka said about Okogie. "Brings the physicality and aggressiveness on the defensive side of the ball. Knows how to play off other guys and then fits in with the areas we like: crashing the glass, slashing, making plays, second opportunities, and kind of gives Amen a break on ball at times." https://www.houstonchronicle.com/sp...-brooklyn-nets-game-updates-odds-21121572.php
That starting spot should have been Tari’s, if he wasn’t playing terrible to start the season. Okogie deserves more than Tari.
Exactly the adjustment I had in mind. I am calling it now, this would be a good win with much better flow offensively and a better game from all our starters overall
I'm a fan of the big lineup, but Okogie's tenacity has been impressive... prob a good idea to change it up and get a few diff perspectives.... Given our roster construct, I think we should regularly be jockeying roles based on match-up... play to the point of differential - along with the hot hands.
The BBS is running slowly. The servers must be stressed by all the Rockets Fans here! Nice shot by Alpi!
Got my championship banners hung up in the man cave rafters and put a spotlight on each of them. Ready for some basketball tonight!
