ClutchFans Game Thread: Rockets @ Thunder 3/3/2025

You understood + agreed with benching Alp for Bruno?

 

HaHaHa. Sengun is slow-footed, can’t shoot from outside and would struggle mightily to defend PFs. It is an absolutely ridiculous idea.

 

I wouldn't say, I agreed but was willing to see what happens, I am not sold on anyone on this team other than Amen - so they have to mix it up and find a mix that works.

I like all 7 of our picks, but I know that we can't keep them all nor should we - but we need a shot blocking big on the roster so we can play that style if needed.

Right now, we are still mix and mashing to see what works best.....I understand that, so am tolerant of seeing it.....for now.

Whatever - McHale, Barkley, Malone, all low block PFs.....

IMHO, Sengun needs a 3pt shot- a consistent one so he can solidify his place, if not, I am fine with seeing what we can get for him.

I thought the Bruno decision was criminal mismanagement. It cemented my fears that Silas + Stone had no clue how to recognize, never mind develop talent.

 

Two and three decades ago. Hell you were in your prime when that worked.

 

Rockets I don't think can get a Younger Better player than Alperen Sengun.

His knee and Back is a Huge Red Flag.

Back injury because of those stupid Taking Charges and falling on the floor was beyond stupid by Silas allowing Alperen Sengun to do that his Rookie Year and Sophomore Year.

Alperen Sengun always flexing his hypextended injured knee from last season.

 

Jalen Green being behind Kevin Porter in Point Guard duties was crazy looking back on it now.

John Wall should've started at PG and Kevin Porter off the bench.

John Wall I think would've taught Jalen Green as they would've went along.

Signing Christian Wood to a Big Deal.

Christian Wood Starting over Alperen Sengun which is bad, Rockets got lucky in that Alperen Sengun was traded to the Rockets. Christian Wood big contract couldn't be moved, nobody wanted to trade for him.

 

Possibly great game by the young guys, did not Understand green benching when game got close, but nice to see young rockets get some run.
