Rockets vs 76ers - 12/29/2023 - Last Play (with video)

Honestly, I'm one of the biggest critics of Jalen's basketball IQ and his boneheaded plays, but Jalen clearly made the right play here. In fact, if Jalen had the same level of awareness throughout the season, the Rockets would be at least 18-12 right now. I honestly have no idea why this is even a controversy.

 

LOL, so the "right move" was to go for 2 down by 3 with something like 4 or 5 seconds left in the game WITH NO TIME OUTS REMAINING?


That's just brilliant basketball strategy.

 

The Rockets ran a great play with the wrong center. Get over it. Jalen made the right decision and has played very well the last 2 games. He might not have turned the corner, but you should just calm down and shut up when he has a good game. You have the capability of being a good, thoughtful poster as exhibited in the other forums. You’re singular hate for Jalen has clouded your judgement about basketball.

 

This.

Jalen failed here. Ime said as much after the game.

 

Jock is at fault. He should have set the screen.

 

Just block him.
