Rolling small against these Rockets is just not the thing, man.


Yeah, but we can all acknowledge, that the problems are deeper than missing a big man?



No doubt.

Dick is a bust, swing annd a miss.

Our best offensive players are our two worst defenders not named Gradey.

Our point guard play has been god awful, the both of em. Hepburn anyone?

Our centres back is **** and he’s moving like an 80 yr old. Hopefully he’ll recover soon enough.

Good news - Ingram can still score, Rj has been efficient AF, Barnes has been nailing 3s, CMB looks real nice.

We need Theoretical Quickley, not whatever this has been. And yeah, he needs to be less of our decision-maker, for sure.

Aside from Yak who is legit hurt and shouldn't have been playing to begin with, IQ has been the worst and most disappointing player so far. He has been awful and today gives me no reason to be hopeful about it. He might have the worst contact in NBA.

Mamu and cmb too. Right now BI is still the most effective player, RJ. Scottie is on and off

Everytime he touches the ball I cringe

How do you go from Yaks love interest to kind of being down on him so fas?

We probably win this game tonight with (healthy) Jak


Man if we can shoot like this and just have defensive rebounding, a little interior presence on defense yeah I think we're up.
