    It’s not the skill set it’s the heart and attitude that’s the issue

    Agreed. I don't think wood has any passion for winning right now. He is more concerned about getting his points than anything and he gets down on defense when he doesn't feel involved. What I realized today is rockets for most part of the game play more like a team plays in garbage time then a NBA team. By that I mean it's just a bunch of players looking to add pts to the total then making others around them better.

    The dunks is what they are celebrating. They know they suck so I don't think losing bothers them as much

    The reality of the team starting to sink in.

    Better for folks to start recognizing this is a basement dweller and will be atleast through next year. And rightly so... this is best for the organization in the long term.

    Really need to work on cashing in value for Wood, House and Gordon.

    All eyes need to be on opening day 2023.

    It's the stupidity that's the issue.

    And that starts from the top.

    I havn't posted in a long time but I watched this game, and there is no offensive coordination. you have the pg/sg trying to penetrate for a layup and he's getting clogged in the paint by his own team mate who doesn't know where to rotate to. nobody has anyclue as to making space for penetration. these are basic basketball IQ stuff. this team would have a much better record with a decent coach.

    Wood IS getting his points.

    He just doesnt like losing.

    No self respecting competitor does.

    Everyone is showing bad body language, losing sucks.

    missing free throws has nothing to do with the coach

    They have fought every game to be competitive. I have not seen one game where they have given up. Sometimes some fans mistake losing for teams not having heart and a fighting attitude. You can lose by 30 and still play hard all game. Some teams just don't have the experience to win the close ones. We have lost a few ones already

    you need two players working together, one boxes out, the other grabs the rebound

    Not at all. You can practice them every practice, the coach can't take them for the player in the game

    Wish he'd fire himself up on the defensive end like a lot of dawgs do.

    Jalen sure thinks they did.

    Closest he'll ever get I guess.
