Bilal is too passive. Dude, look for your shot more.

Meanwhile, the Green- Sengun combo is destroying us.

We were +2 with Kuzma on the floor.

We are so weak on the boards…

We need our Jarrett Allen, amongst other things.

Just noticing that Reed Shepard is on G-League assignment, 3rd pick.

Rockets very impressive. No Smith or Eason tonight either. Reed Sheppard in G league, almost like a draft and stash for next year if Van Fleet gone.

On a more positive note the Hornets beat the Suns for their 8th win.

Yep. High highness Brad Beal scored 10 points on 5/13 FGs…

Butler was solid but not impressive. Mainly we were eaten alive inside.

[dobrojim]

With Poole out Bub really needs to look for his shot more.

Got a quick 6 (IIRC) then not that much. Overall a solid game.
I'm becoming less sure about George though. He can't hit shots.
He does have time to change that but right now he doesn't scare
anyone (opp) when shooting the ball.

Pretty decent game from Bilal tonight.

Very nice 1stQ then 3 quarters of KeystoneCops where they looked their age.

Sengun is Sarr's daddy.

[dobrojim]

We were +2 with Kuzma on the floor.

He did a good job defensively on Sengun. And attacked the rim on O.
Solid game from Kuz.

Nah, we preferred Andrew Nicholson (from the same Orlando bench the same offseason we acquired Jason Smith).

Just noticing that Reed Shepard is on G-League assignment, 3rd pick.

Sheppard had 49 points, 5 rebounds, and 6 assists.

Yep, I think it is a wise move - just let him play in the G league. I mean, the rockets are a really good team and none of our rookies would be playing meaningful minutes on the rockets. I don't like that the Rockets are also going to get a decent pick from Phoenix (at least as it stands now). Sengun Amen, then Sheppard, then ?? - Pretty decent job in drafting.
