    12-10 with Tari.
    11-18 without Tari.

    Team has been straight trash without our best player.

    God I hope Stone doesn't trade Cam in the summer for a borderline all-star.

    I'm guessing he's reached his limit of being told to put a leash on his game and cater to worse teammates, and we're now seeing it effect him psychologically.

    Going to be a tough pill to swallow watching him laugh in Stone's face and throw up deuces as he leaves when his contract is up.

    Rockets fans in tears right now.

    There's no trade deadline to dream about this team adding a competent back up PG, or C, or someone who will make us thing hey this wide open 3 might go in.

    man I just found out we had a game today

    looking at the boxscore, seems like a fake comeback was in full effect

    Jalen Green survived the trade deadline and said “well, let me do me now…let me get back to being trash”

    looks like Sengun’s talent didn’t make it through customs with that performance

    Amen Thompson: 4 assists, 6 turnovers

    looks like I didn’t miss much

    ...or he's just a very good but not yet great young player having a down stretch of his age 21 season and trying to adjust to opponents putting more focus on him

    My god sometimes both extremes of this unending argument irritate me sometimes

    Really enjoy seeing Jalen laughing on the bench after getting yanked for shitty play. Good look there #4.

    You mean when he's allowed to play by the coaching staff?

    There's some pretty noticeable differences in games like tonight, and games when Sengun tears apart the other team.

    Do not want to be the bearer of bad news but you are not going to miss much by not watching the Atlanta game tomorrow as well.

    Your comment would make sense if Sengun didn't go multiple stretches every game without looking for his shot but instead catching the ball around the perimeter, never looking at the basket but always looking to hand it off.

    Imagine having zero knowledge of what you're actually responding to, and then having the audacity to call out someone else lmfao.

    Based just off what I watched he had a terrible game. He was absolutely part of the problem in the first half both offensively and defensively. His defense was good in the fourth but nothing shown that would make me believe he's the solution to the Rockets success going forward, unlike Cam Whitmore.

    Just my option. He's young so I'm not very down on him like I am with Jalen.

    How many of his buckets came on Alpi vs not on Alpi?

    I don't know the answer, so I'm curious to see what it is.

    Because I have a feeling this is a comment from a box score perspective and not from a game perspective.
