Game 52 Rockets (32-18) @ Wolves (28-23)

[BlacJacMac]

Clark with 14 on 4/5 shooting!!!

[Nick K]

Who said Jaylen Clark couldn't shoot??

[Nick K]

Damn, this has been a hell of a game so far.

[TimberKat]

I am reading the game logs and how many 3s and offensive rebounds did HOU got in the third? Seems like we need to closer with man to man D

[BlacJacMac]

We are so bad ending quarters.

[winforlose]

Did Leonard Miller sleep with Finch’s wife or something. If poor play took Minott out of the rotation then what do you call Garza the last 3 games? How is he still the better option? What am I missing?

I get the Garza criticism. Garza needs PT and we need to suffer through his mistakes and give him a fair evaluation. The organization and staff love Garza. They see him everyday. He has strong points to his game. He has to defend better no doubt. He has to learn to play angles. That's part of the learning process.

It's hard to be patient with these young guys.

Put simply we have too many contracts for not enough spots to reasonably keep Garza next year. Miller needs that PT every bit as badly as Garza, but he is under contract two more years and has a future here. Garza will never have the foot speed to be anything more than a defensive liability. He will have a great career in the G, and hopefully as a Wolf, but an Iowa Wolf.

Ant's shot selection is very bad

[FrenchMinnyFan]

Seems Mike injured his arm....gonna be tough.

[Klomp]

Just remember, Jaylen Clark does not deserve playing time over Josh Minott

[Nick K]

Tough to semi-collapse at the end of the 3rd qtr. We could have had the lead but a bad pass and bad d did it in the end.

Down by 6 going into the 4th. Winning 4th qtrs at home has been a big weakness this year. I'd say the odds of us winning tonight are 35%. Maybe Jaylen Clark can save us.

[Klomp]

You can’t hide a center on defense.

I hope you weren't one of the people who questioned why we traded for Gobert when we already had Towns at center...

[Nick K]

Gobert stripped and another turn over.

I feel I'm missing something here or just slow on the uptake today...

Why not?

KAT is Bill Russell compared to Garza…

I get it but I'm not convinced yet. Most big guys appear slow and still make it. The small amount of money he makes won't be a factor.

This rockets team are full of bitches

Garza doesn’t just “appear” slow. He’s a traffic cone.

[winforlose]

If Jaden is ejected for poking shouldn’t Landale be ejected for shoving?

[_AIJ_]

Naz with these dumbass shots

[winforlose]

Can they add a flopping tech to a review? AS clearly flops and given how he has been acting all game that deserves a tech. Especially since it forced a coaches challenge.
