    MDA would have a brain aneurism if he had to actually think on how to integrate a rookie player

    Average veterans don’t use much thinking

    He probably had a heart attack when GG hurt himself and knew he had to actually play House who I think has been great

    Usually championship contenders would rather have proven players on the court than 5’9 undrafted rookies. Kendrick Nunn plays defense and isn’t 5’9. EG is a proven scorer, not a shot chucker. You got me on the Rockets defense tho

    If Eric Gordon isn’t a shot chucker then I don’t know what is...

    Don’t get me wrong it’ll be nice when the law of average kicks in and he starts playing well. But right now, he’s definitely a chucker.

    Right now he’s a dumpster fire, not a shot chucker. He’s taking good shots for the most part. Just isn’t hitting crap

    Time to give this guy a chance.

    He's looked good just about every time he's touched the court including yesterday. Antoni likes small ball anyways. Plus his defense actually looks better than you'd expect.

    Time to try something new.

    Clemons and McLemore have been looking pretty good so far.

    January is far from now...
    We're supposed to & should have a strong start and Eggy is causing us games. Not soley him but he's a big reason why we're loosing along with the none-existing defense.
    Houston got COLD quick this year... F*cking break city every night....
    Don't know what else to say to defend the rockets when bball conversations are had...

    He shouldn't have to. He pretty much has one job on this team and that's make open, set shots. When he makes a few of those, he can use his limited handling to take what the defense is giving.
