    I feel bad for the Rockets, they fight hard to get back in these games and every time that trash bench lineup undoes all the good work lol.

    This team is just in a very tough spot.

    We went into the season without any notable playmakers other than Wall and Harden. Everyone was clamoring for a back up point yet that issue hasn’t been solved.

    Wall is probably hurt/ailing because we pushed him too hard to try to win/convince Harden that this team could be enough.

    Now that he has been out and Harden has been traded, we have to rely on Gordon, Tate and Vic to create offense so of course the team is going to struggle.

    One big way of negating the lack of playmaking is by getting easy buckets in transition, yet this team is so bad defensively and rebounding that they rarely get transition looks.

    So this unit basically got it back to what it was when they left at the end of the third.

    Only guy that should not be traded is Christian Wood.

    The Rockets are going to have to focus heavily in finding a player that can be a good pick and roll player with Christian Wood. It's infuriating watching Oladipo and Eric be completely clueless how to give Wood the ball on rolls. They've had him open for the lob a few times and instead opt to drive into traffic and turn the ball over.

    Wood wants to win man. I certainly appreciate that. I don't like developing loser mentalities.

    At least Wood will get his numbers and stay on pace for AS consideration.
