    Nothing is easy to get players going - no back cuts - no double screens heading downhill … everything is side to side … once we played good teams who cut off Amen, it’s been horrid

    Yeah, but come on, this wasn't the Jalen we had been seeing recently at all. He couldn't get to the basket, was settling for 3's, he only took 4 shots tonight from inside the three point line. Yes, they were keying on him defensively, but he's got to be better than that. I'm not blaming him for the loss, everyone basically **** the bed, but if he's going to be your star, you needed more from him tonight.

    I do not get this star talk really, if he is meant to be a star, it will show in the future, does not mean much when he had a streak.....

    And it does not mean that much if he had that 13 ppg slump, I knew back then that he is not that bad but just not really in the right head space.......

    Can we focus on Amen and Cam Whitmore for once.

    Green is still inconsistent, so he won't be a leader for a while.

    Nothing creative. Like why not run dho actions with Jabari in the high post area where he can shoot over any time with Jalen running off ball in the dho action with Jabari?


    **** like that? Why not more Jalen and Jabari pnr action? Teams are less committed in doubling Green when Jabari is the screener popping out for a 3.

    Right now Green is just being played into double teams and cannot get a rhythm

    I mean do you want him to force the issue when they blitz? He can try splitting it more but then he has a chance to get stripped.

    Ime needs to create actual offensive sets that just aren't Green being played into a trap.

    I didnt catch this game but im not shocked this happened. I halfway expected it.

    They had a little hot streak, mostly against the worst teams in the league, but they showed us who they were all season long.

    Hopefully okc doesnt have too much lottery luck with our pick.

    It was a nice season in hindsight, yeah they played really bad in the middle of the season but overall it was not bad at all.

    For a rebuilding team......credit goes mostly to Ime.

    I'd rather the Rockets not lose out and give OKC anything higher than 12.

    I think you can still draft pretty well till the 20s.......just those 2 Cents.

    Draft class is not top also not really that bad as people made it to be.

    Lol, Ime does not change.

    That is why I think Ime is not 100% made for a rebuilding situation, he did well here but he would be absolutely frustrated in Detroit or Portland.

    Today was an embarrassment of defense. Didn't see Ime at all getting pissed off at these kids. I guess they threw in the towel before tipoff.
