Defense was way better. Team still has a lot of kinks to work out, but it's nice to finally get on the board! Congrats to Ime Udoka for his first win as coach.

I would go Horford VC, but Grant deserves it just as much. Good game for Tatum too.

Good win. Much needed.

Voted for Grant for VC. He was great. Horford was a close second and Tatum a close 3rd for me.

Schroder had a good game. Best game of the season for him by far.

Rob was non existent.

Smart was awful again on offense but played his best game of the season defensively.

Nesmith was a disappointment in limited minutes.

Props to Ime for his 1st win and good overall coached game outside of his questionable starting lineup. A much better coached game from him.

Same here. I've grown tired of the hate that Grant receives on this board. He's never going to be a star but will help this team, no doubt.

W is a W, I'll take it. Let's take some steps from here. Impressed with Grant. Al is on that fountain of youth.

A win is a win.

First win as a head coach for Ime!

We could have played better i'll take the win.

tatum started to show glimpses of the vintage Tatum we know and love. rob and al were good again. def seems like they are 3rd/4th best players on this team - because of that, I expect we'll keep seeing more of the double big rob + al lineups. if for no other reason than to have your best players on the court more often..
Nothing wrong with having a different opinion - as long as it's done respectfully. It'd be lame if we all agreed on everything :)

Horford should come off the bench that would help with the rotations

A win is a win. Tatum, Horford and Grant Williams were good. I wonder if Nesmith needs to change his shooting form. There is something off about the way he currently shoots.

A win is a win. Not taking much from this except they didn't turn over the ball. Hopefully the threes start dropping because they shoot alot of them..

Grant Williams gets my vote.
Solid, Steady player.

He's a Great Bench Player.

For me, Tatum gets the VC because every time the Rockets tried to make a run, Tatum would make shots to keep the Rockets at bay.
