It's actually kind of crazy you're spouting 'leading scorer' like it's something to be proud of this game... dude shot TWELVE MORE TIMES than any of his teammates. (newsflash: he wasn't on fire either to warrant those shot numbers) LMFAO good rebuttal. Hey, tell me what the team did after his turnover flurry in winning time? Oh that's right, they flat out refused to even look for him for multiple possessions after that. Why would a team do that to their LeAdInG sCoReR
Isn't that what I said? I said the whole team was awful. That includes Jalen but there is no reason to single him out. Sengun played the worst 4th quarter I've seen from him all year and looked injured. Amen wasn't his usual self on the glass. Fred was 1-7 from three. Dillon was awful. List goes on and on.
as long as they dont give up the young players under 23. we have to realize Rockets weren't supposed to be here yet. this is gravy. This is the worst the rockets will be. Just a little more patience.
Amazed we're going to come out of this little stretch with a winning record. Schedule gets somewhat easier after this, but not sure it's going to help us if we play like we did tonight. Hopefully this was just a fluke on the second night of a B2B after an extremely hard-fought game in Boston.
I can’t imagine being such a loser that you post this crap after a win. You obviously hate Jalen more than you like the Rockets.
Daniels is the best 1v1 defender in the league and leads the league in steals. He had 8 steals against the Wolves and Ant had 5 TOs. Should Minny have taken him out the game too?? Julius Randle had 8 TOS in that game should they have taken him out the game too? Imagine the Celtics taking out Tatum last night because Amen was being a menace. I can tell you only watch Rockets games lmao.
My take is different. BEAUTIFUL WIN! This L we handed to Atlanta STUNG them like a mfr. Painful for the team and their 3 fans. LFG
Amen was obviously gassed this game. I saw him standing around on defense a couple of times and I have never seen that out of him. I think Brooks legs got really tired as well. We going to cough up one sooner or later, but this was a gut it out game. Thank God for Tate tonight.
Honestly, Alpi is usually a 70%+ free throw shooter, Fred/Jalen are usually 85%+, I think if anything we were on a colder streak from the line and this kind of FT shooting is gonna be more the norm going forward. (Yes I know this is a delusional take from me but one can hope)
