his ankle was parallel and he didn't even come out of the game.


Those ankle injuries are usually 100x worse the next day. If he plays without any issues tomorrow then Gumby it is.

I really hope we didn't play him just to showcase him for a trade. It should be Sims that gets traded.

Huk is the better player.


I’m not saying Sims is good, but there is nothing tonight that Huk did to show you he’s better


Huk blocked a shot tonight

Huk has 12 blocks in 130 minutes this season

Sims has 10 blocks in 422 minutes this season

Jalen as the #1 guard in the East is no longer a hot take.

also the rockets need to move off Jalen Green...terrible shot selection...ineffecient chucker and terrible defense. Also turns it over a lot. -22 on the night.

Rockets have some serious talents, we need to play down to the wire to have this comeback win, while they are without Sengun and FVV when we missed OG.

Zero points and the Rockets went up by 10 as soon as he subbed in but he looked good out there and Thibs need to play him more. Its Frank all over again lol

Agreed, especially if he wasn’t 100% no reason he should have been on chuck time. Seem like his teammates were frustrated with his shot selection all game.

Side note, Udoka must really not like Whitmore as well lol, he had it going offensively, but didn’t see the floor the after he checked out early in the 4th


Thank god someone else said it, I think Green stinks....someone said earlier M Monk with the green light. I ship him before the league catches on, the guy thinks he's much better then he actually is. Udoka annoys the absolute hell out of m

Certainly not for FAT Luka. If he gets in shape, maybe not even then. JB has a "Brady" feel about him.

You may as well take away his Nova band brothers as well, which is just a parallel universe. 8-)

Winning aside this is possibly the most likable team I’ve ever watched. We’re beyond spoiled. Setting myself up for heartbreak but I love this gang

Nope. Jalen was born to play here and bring a title home with the help of his boys. I wouldn’t give up that story for Slovenian Homer Simpson… the fat drunk crybaby

I still would but it would be far more painful of a decision than I ever imagined it could be


Honest response. My point in asking is when guys like Luka are on the market certain players have played themselves out of the trade proposal bc you want to pair Luka with them.. not sure which team could’ve offered a better player than AD. I wouldn’t have trade Luka, but Nico might not have been THAT crazy is all…


I take joker/Giannis/Ant/Brunson over AD, the best ability is availability, man is made of glass. Idk if any of them
Would give up those players but if Luka could be in trade talks anyone could be.

Also hopefully we get someone before the deadline that allows us to pull the plug on shamet because he’s been looking rough for a minute. One dimensional 3pt specialist who shoots 30% from 3

Luka has more talent but JB has talent and mindset. It's tough to find that combination these days. A lot of these superstars are all about themselves but JB truly wants to win and wants to do it not just for himself but for his teammates as well. We are blessed.

Jalen Brunson surpassing Donovan Mitchell and Damian Lillard is wild.
