    Hopefully this will be the last time we all have to watch Jalen Green in a Rockets uniform.

    The Rockets wouldn’t be in a game 7 if it weren’t for VanVleet’s play in games 5 and 6.

    Winning looks unlikely, but we're still within striking distance.

    Rockets need to play faster and avoid half-court sets.

    Attack the paint (and make layups.. smh) since GS is playing smaller by adding an extra shooter with Hield. We're gonna need a couple players making some 3's. Rockets are shooting horribly.

    Jalen has been playing essentially 6th man minutes tonight, which is fine. He needs to score more in the 2nd half, or he won’t get a chance at redemption this season.

    Dillon…idk. He hasn’t been good for two games, I’d honestly rather see Jabari in over him.

    lmao, ppl say this everytime Jalen starts off the game like dogshit

    He is who he is, he'll never be a starter on a championship team unless he's being completely carried.

    Honestly I feel the same way from a basketball knowledge standpoint but from a Houston sports standpoint I'm very concerned...

    yea playing too slow. Way too slow. Playing in warriors favor. Need to speed it way the heck up. There’s still a chance but they need to come out with different energy here in 3rd quarter

    only Hield is going off not aure why they keep losing him but I think the Rox just need to make a slight alteration to their game plan its working otherwise.

    Hield is 8/9 from 3 will he go 18/20 for the entire game? Doubt it.

    Maybe this is just me being full of cope but when an opponent goes 8/9 from 3 being only down by 12 os actually a good sign.

    Truthfully.

    He had 1 CnS he bricked.

    Every other possession he attacked the rim and i believe was fpuled on all of them but ironically only got the foul on his one make.

    I dont think hes playing worse then brooks. Im also not sure the double big works when buddy hield is scorching.

    If only we had a big that can play big but also pull the other bigs out of the paint because of his three point shooting. You could even have plays where you run said Big off of screens to get him wide open shots.

    If only we had a 21 year old 6'10 guy that was drafted for stretching the floor.

    This isn’t a typical 7 seed. They picked up an all star at the trade deadline.
