    Y'all are both good fans. Stop please. I'm begging you!

    @AroundTheWorld I've been reading your posts for decades. You're great. No need to stop. But come on, O-dawg is at least a little off limits on fan questions when he's got that early of a sign on date.

    @O-dawg has been on here for decades and he's posting more now? No fair weather fan will ever start posting when we're 5-14. You can't fake joining that long ago and somehow not be a legit fan. Good things are happening and we finally look like a team moving toward championship caliber. Both of you are going to be loving life like you wouldn't believe if we somehow start moving towards another chip.

    OK @don grahamleone - thanks for your kind words.

    By the way, this was the play I was talking about by Sengun. He had to literally duck to not have his head hit the backboard. I don't think that happens if you are unathletic and purely play below the rim, as some people falsely allege. He did get the block on that play, too.

    Grateful to have both Green and Alpi. With a proper coach, the future is bright!

    Watching Green and Smith Jr get hot at the same time was nuts. Made me get some Warrior vibes of how they can push a lead to double digits in less than a minute. That is the type of peak offense you need to be a championship caliber team.

    They had an incredible defender on him (Dort) and an incredibly good offensive player on the floor (SGA) and Jalen bested both. Played how a superstar should play against a bad team.

    That reverse layup after blowing past Dort is jaw-dropping. Kobe and MJ vibes these last two games. Now that his passing and defense are catching up, you're going to see his net impact on winning take flight.

    One day he will be a man and we’ll say we knew him as a kid.

    It's interesting to see how a defender like Dort, who matched up and guarded prime Harden really well, looked completely lost guarding a 20 year old Jalen Green.

    That poster thinks he is gods gift to iq Mensa members world wide. At the same time he has made fun of another posters kid with a disability.

    He is an abrasive loser. Feel bad for him.

    Is it really innocent when you're whole rep is of a notoriously obsessive Segun devotee?

    Virtually everything about you is a Segun slurpjob these days and honestly it's having a repulsive effect for us Rockets fans who appreciate Alpi.
    So it might be wise to heed the admonishment and maybe pull up a little on the nonstop Alperen crotch-jockeying, especially when it's done to detract from or denigrate others in the organization.

    Just a thought.

    Superstars are few and far between he might get there some day but that is a very high standard maybe like 5-6 superstars in the league.....Green ain't there yet.

    Never noticed any of your posts before. You are irrelevant. You have the right to disappear back into oblivion. Bye.

    Says the guy who is a laughing stock for many around him. You are a Rockets fan though, so that's okay.

    The day I let others dictate what I think or see, is the day I no longer have a growth mindset and am a free thinker - you are a Rox fan too - and so is O-dawg......we just won 2 in a row......

    Yes, our team sucks, but we do have a decent future, unfortunately it is going to take 3-4 more years to get there, and if we keep up the b****ing this place will explode with toxicity.....would rather that not happen.

    Think of all the clowning I would miss out on....and the poor people deprived of a good laugh......

    Sad, tragic....can't let that happen.

    I don't even think our team sucks. I am very excited by the team's potential, and I like most of our players, including KPJ.

    Except Nix. Somehow I really don't like Nix.
