    This looks like a regular season game, and it’s nice to see

    We are all going in on Chriss, but he isnt really playing that badly.. He's just paying dumb.. His brain can't keep up with the Rockets yet. I've seen flashes.

    This game will stay relatively close until the last seven minutes of the fourth quarter when the Rockets win by 17 points

    I always hate that call, punishing Melo for being bigger and stronger...

    Agreed. His BB IQ isn’t high enough

    Chriss has great raw athleticism , but he struggles to be in the right spots .

    If James has trouble finding you for a good look in the PnR then it's your fault .

    He's already a good defender. His IQ on offense just isn't there. He needs to clear the paint. But **** Clint didn't know where James wanted him on P/Rs until they had time together to build chemistry.

    They gonna have to learn that Chriss doesn't have Clint's hands so won't catch bad passes like that...

    Well Chriss is playing a lot better now, seems just like the first game where it took some time for his mind to get into it or something...
