    Cam, Tate, uncle Jeff, and Tari should all be starters this season. Prove me wrong.

    Green has no idea how to win. The hope is he learns this year. Same for some others.

    Meh... at this point, I don't even care who goes out there and channels their inner Kobe. At least they out there with self-respect. Most of the team did not come to play tonight.

    You could've paid harden the same money as fvv and he would do more than fvv and green combined. Fvv can't even get the ball into the post smh

    Jalen, Jabari, Amen played like absolute butt.

    The Magic absolutely killed us on the boards.

    This team is not that good yet. At least the defensive intensity as a group looked alright, fouls aside.

    I’m pissed but not despondent

    What're you going to do with Sengun and FVV? Hell, even Brooks. All of them had pretty decent games today.

    After these last 3 years, no amount of pain from the Rockets can hurt me.

    I'm not even mad, just disappointed. :(

    Move Jalen and Jabari to the bench and see how they respond. I’m not watching another full season of this ****.

    The magic have deflected or touched the ball on basically every offensive possession for the rockets. A horrible combination of good scrambling defense and carelessness by the rockets.

    The rockets still look like they need a lead guard in the worst way. I love FVV but he isn’t that guy. He’s a solid support guard/setup PG.

    Jalen Green and Amen have been the problem tonight and Jalen especially needs to really pull his sh*t together. There’s ALOT riding on him and tonight shows what’ll happen if he stinks it up this year.
