He just cannot play with BP on the court. It makes sense.

He’s not rebounding. He’s just watching the ball. He’s not coming down to help. He’s not going after loose balls. He can’t shoot. He’s getting his **** stuffed. Just a terrible game from him.


It's a chemistry thing. Let's see how he plays when BP isn't on the court.

He's barely being used except near the end of the shot clocks.

Baffling why JK and Moody don’t get more run.

At this point I kinda wish we had closed the deal for Vucevic for pennies. Not have to go small, guy who teams have to account for, can rebound, and if you are up 15 and need a few easy post ups you give him the ball.

Unreal how much run Podz got despite looking like he doesn't even belong in the league. What a surprise they get a boost here as soon as they finally bench him.

IKR !! There's something else going on (Front office or owner likes him too much / mandates his playing time or something)

Samurai wrote:So Buddy was unconscious in the first half and we aren't running any plays for him in the second half. Podz has been off every time the ball is in his hands so we make him the hub of the offense. Kerr doing a masterful job of doing what no team would expect and the lead evaporates.


I'm assuming the Rockets made it a point at halftime to make sure someone sticks to Buddy.

If Kuminga played like Amen he’d have that big contract.

Podz should be getting 15 min a game max. Kerr has elevated him as "one of the main guys" and he just ain't that guy

Ugh that would've been so huge if Podz hit that 3 there for an 11-pt cushion. Oh well, all-in-all, not a bad close to the quarter to get the lead back to 8 after they had a chance to tie the game. Going into the game, I'm sure everyone here would've taken an 8-pt lead going into the 4th, especially if you knew Steph wasn't doing much.
