    19 years old Bari played 17 minutes
    20 years old Sengun played 23 minutes
    21 years old Tari played 18 minutes
    20 years old Josh Christopher played 6 minutes.

    If anyone ask, we are progressing...

    Yea I also saw Alpi asking Coach Lucas if he can go back in, then getting turned down and dismayed. Alpi was cooking all game and would be going for another career night if not for 3 absolute bogus calls on him. Jabari made two straight 3s in the 3rd to cut the lead to 2 and then never saw the court again lol.

    What the hell is this coaching staff trying to teach these youngsters? Where is the competitive spirit?

    Bari with 17 minutes and today’s MVP Sengun with 23 is just bullshit. I understand the foul trouble situation but there’s nothing to gain by sitting them for so long and letting Gordon and Gary chuck up shots for the first six minutes of the final quarter. Why does anybody want to watch that?

    Also, the Green and Alp p&r is looking pretty good! The KPJ and anyone p&r needs work.

    This game was not unwinnable. Bad officiating, a shooting slump, and baffling rotations in the last quarter made sure we lost though. And a final thought…why the hell didn’t we challenge that 4th foul? Worst case scenario is a wasted challenge but the game was slipping away and we needed Sengun in the game

    Like the offensive goaltending by Jokic they didn’t even want to stop and review it but they call it on Rockets all the time

    Green getting slapped down on and it’s a TO or no call…. Let him be Morant or Booker

    Stone needs to do like Rockets did before and send video in to NBA

    Each of your points is spot on. And very disheartening as a Rockets fan. We're supposed to be excited to watch the young guys grow as we lose. Instead, we get Silas... Fire him now. Get a young coach willing to learn with the team and has some fire.

    Rockets have back to back games in Denver have you ever played at high altitude… once it was out of hand you rest them and go for the split.

    Why push them and someone get injured

    Yea... getting Myles Turner on a fat contract would be the absolute WORST thing this franchise can end up doing out of all the possible choices they can make in the offseason. The guy is and has always been an unmotivated scrub - the team that pays for his middling performance in a contract year will regret it within seconds.

    I know you want to try and be clever, let me educate you.

    Zubac got most of his points when Myles Turner was on the bench. Only 10 of Zu's points came when Turner when on the floor. The remaining 21 came when Turner was on the bench.

    Turner had to be pulled from the game in the within the first two minutes of the game because his contact lenses were knocked out and when he returned he got into foul trouble so he ended up only playing 8 minutes in the first half. By that point, Zubac had already had 16 points and 15 boards.

    Dealing with losing seasons is one thing. Dealing with losing seasons as our coaching staff doesn't allow our young guys to grow is another. No one should be dealing with Gary and Gordon getting priority over the young guns. I know we need a vet presence, but gimme DJ at pg for 15 minutes a game, Gordon for 10/15, not this crap we get now.

    Yeah, sure. One of those two will bring us a championship singlehandedly.

    240 minutes total. Boban, Fernando, Nix and Mathews with a round 48 minutes combined. Minutes that were absolutely lit on fire, buried, forgotten, dug up, buried again. 20% of our minutes completely unproductive. Like playing 4 on 5, and that's before the refs get involved.

    17 points, 6 rebounds and 4 assists. From the guy who can dribble, a shooter and 2 bigs in 48 minutes. God. Damn. That is so ****ing bad.

    Playing Boban at home, honestly it's disrespectful as hell to the Rockets team that everyone just wants the freak show...but that's the home base cheering for it. The **** we gotta play Boban in Denver for?

    Yeah. I’m not in on Turner. On paper we should be, Texas guy with length and athleticism that can shoot the 3, but in reality he’s an idiot.
