    The lack of talent on the bench, no 1st Rd talent, no size at the Forward or Center spot, Rebounding is a huge issue. Tucker and Nene only get 5 rebounds each as an average. Daryl has been so poor in talent evaluation since the offseason during Free Agency, throwing away 1st Rd Picks is costing the Team games and absolutely no high upside talent on the bench, or as a starter.

    All they had to do was not miss FTs at the end of regulation. 1 of those 3 misses. Smh. 'Nite CFs.

    Is there really nothing else to talk about? This is such an obscure stat to research.

    Tucker was a -17. Not much of a surprise. Not going to say anything about him as a player this season, because it'll obviously upset some certain people here.

    Also, I haven't really given a **** about any these scoring numbers from Harden. Just by itself, it's obviously impressive, but when I see these usage numbers and rarely-scoring-after-assists (even before everyone got injured) and get worried more than anything. When the team is clicking as a whole>>James Harden scoring 60 points. I'm sure the Warriors are not afraid when one man is scoring that much. If you have more talent on your team, you'll almost always win out anyway.

    It’s not about a stud defender. It’s about a quality high iq one, like Clark.

    Main culprit of this lost are green then pj Tucker. Like seriously he couldn’t even make 2 freethrows in a row. At least one. And green fouling when Allen has an easy layup. And Tucker also fouling and giving them and1
    Those two were the dumbest play this game especially Green. If he hadn’t given that and1 we would have been tied instead of being down 1

    And freaking Morey already make a move. Like seriously we need some help ASAP like 10 games ago and we still playing with this thin ass line up.

    They don’t have to play the same position. The point is Nene and Clark should have played more down the stretch when the Rockets were giving up layups and rebounds.

    Using a plus minus off a single game isnt accurate.

    at the end of the day. the rockets were up 3 in the 4th, and didn't foul, then the nets hit a 3.

    that's not on green, tucker, harden, or anybody but MDA.
