    Game 5 CP3 shimmy on Curry was the pinacle of happiness for me as a Rocket fan. I was too young for the Dream era.

    With as much as Silas stresses defense, why do so many on CF want MPJ. The body language and effort on defense is trash.

    MPJ is just a 6'9 Ben McLemore, as in unplayable.

    Instead of helping Wood, the whole team would have to help him.

    you’re buggin on this one D-rock

    MPJ isn’t unplayable...his current level of defense is harmful on a contender, but we’re nowhere close to that

    he has a ton of potential and is 22 averaging 15 on 50/43/82 shooting splits in a limited role

    Then now is the time to go get MPJ while his stock is low.

    Not only is he having a bad stretch of games but Murray's not yet 100% from his injuries.

    And the whole team, not just MPJ, struggles on defense especially defending teams with fast guards.

    I'm just not a fan of MPJ's poor IQ (on court and off) + shyte defense.

    I would prefer Bol Bol and RJ Hampton instead.

    Zion is at least worth watching.

    No one wants to see Oladipo jack up 20+ shots.
