    Tari is a brilliant offensive rebounded.

    none of them are natural points…we’ve got a bunch of pretenders at the position

    Garuba offering zero rim protection...


    As a team we are shooting like 30% to their 50. You'd think that will change a bit?

    Tari is a MOFO'ing steal at 17. Welcome to your SF for the next 10 years. You win with guys like that. The team is fitting together like a nice little landscape puzzle.

    POA defense from the second unit guards is lackluster

    JayGup, Garuba, KMJ, and Mathews should be able to fetch an elite bench warmer or 2..

    Why is Nix a thing? He cant hit free throws, cant pass, cant shoot, cant defend. I would rather see Josh just chuck shots than Nix lol Where is Ty Ty?

    Who is the best point guard in this upcoming draft? Scoot is a combo guard right?

    Garuba and Nix are looking sub G league level.

    Can't spell Starter without Tar-E

    Stagger Green and KPJ minutes I think is going to be necessary in the regular season. They don't play off each other really. Green's game isn't enhanced from KPJ's pg play.

    Is Josh Christopher not having a high ceiling really an unpopular opinion among Rockets fans?
