    Putting a whole bunch of non shooters around Durant is awful basketball. Just terrible lineups by Ime.

    There are different standards for Reed.

    we force feed Jabari all these jumpers saying he’ll find his rhythm eventually but can’t do a fraction for Reed

    He can't dribble,he can't pass, can't grab rebounds, can't shoot threes, can't dunk, but other than that, he's a good basketball player.

    So far, TO diff and O-rebound diff is how the Rockets are keeping this close.

    Getting outshot 50% to 26% right now.

    Jabari has never met a shot he doesn't want to take. Very rarely does he pass the ball back once he has possession of it.

    Anemic offense once again where we gotta rely on Jabrick to make shots.

    There have been several games already KD starts out very poorly and finishes at or above 50%.

    Reed kills it 2 straight game as a starter, 1 bad one and he goes back to the bench. A couple of bad shooting games and he can’t even play

    but we wonder why he’s having confidence issues?

    giving this philandering piece of human **** an extension is the dumbest thing this team has done in a long time

    I’m okay JD taking Amens minutes longest Amen take Jabari’s minutes, but new line-up is way to take away Reed’s minutes. At least just trade him to better place than under Ime if you gonna waste his talent

    “Jabari getting to learn and follow KD’s every move for 3 years will be great!”

    Me: Jabari wanting to be KD so bad will be awful!
