ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Mavericks 11/28/2023

Oladipo is no where near being ready to play from what I read. And no timetable to when he will be.
Bullock will either be thrown in a trade or cut in the off-season I imagine.

 

The fact that we couldn’t even qualify for a gimmick cup, in a must win game, against a team that was already eliminated , sums up where we are.

100% agree that moves need to be made
ATP making the play in is a must, no excuses

 

I'm wondering if we would have been better off just waiving Porter instead of giving up two 2nd round picks to trade him and getting an injured Olidipo.

 

We got Oladipo for his contract value to use in a trade. No one expected him to play for us.

 

But we gave up two 2nd round picks too. With his injury history is he going to net more for us?

 

Oladipo is just a shell of himself. He's salary filler in a trade. He's going to get bought out, either by us or the team we deal him to and then he'll sign a vet min deal.

Our inability to finish these games on the road is getting ridiculous. It isn't unusual for a young team, but we are taking it to the extreme.

 

His value is his $10M+ salary, not his ability to play.
Its about contract matching. We didnt have any players with a decent size contract on the books we could easily give up or want to before Oladipo. Now we can go after a guy in trade making $12M or even higher if we throw in other players like Bullock.

 

These are the same people who would deride Green for forcing up a shot and playing "hero ball" while shouting that Holiday was right there wide open.

 

What hypocrisy by Jalen haters! Our fanbase doesn't even want Jalen to shoot as an elite scorer, but then how can he drop 30 points, right? Meanwhile, SenJin can use the ball as much as he wants? Is this fair?

Unbelievable.
.

 

What? Did you watch the game? Sengun only took one more shot than Jalen last night. He took 21 shots and scored 31 PTS. Jalen took 20 shots and scored 12 PTS.

 

Do you see what Seanguin is doing here? He is not assisting his star guard in utilizing the ball freely. It is a waste of time in the paint. How can Jalen score if his center does not create space for him to drive to the rim?

 

Most ridiculous thing ever. Needed the Chicago Bulls, Hornets or the Utah Jazz. So many mid teams but we conveniently get stuck against the 2nd and 5th placed teams in the West

 

Denver is our biitch

 

Good grief. At least learn to spell his name right if you are going to complain and moan. If you don't like Sengun or appreciate how he's played this year then you are probably in the minority, but honestly, I don't care. I like all our players.

 

Have to wait until the 15th, but trust a move will be made

 

Just finished up the game.

That ish was ugly.

 

Roadless Warriors more like it. Can every game be at Toyota center please?
