    The beam kicks ass. Beats the fuse for sure. Do we even have a fuse?! I guess we’d have to actually win a game to find out...

    Giving up 135 is also a problem… our defense sucks vs longer athletic forwards

    We give up a lot of corner 3s and it feels like because we don’t take many, they don’t even get to defend them in practice

    135 is the new 120. But it wouldn't be that high if we just grabbed the rebounds after the first stop

    I’ve said it all season… Jalen needs to shoot more midrange and forget the 3 … he shouldn’t shoot more than 5 a game unless he’s hot.

    His midrange been really good all season specially off the baseline

    Until we reward hard work and hustle with more minutes and more shots, then we should all expect things to get worse. There is no respect for playing the game the right way.

    3/12 from three from Green, that killed a spectacular night he could have had.
    Martin needs to start, Only one that has been cutting and diving to the basket since 2020
    Alpi Kidd chose to be a Maestro for the offense.
    Nice to see guys like Lauri and Sabonis doing there thang after not being wanted.

    And he needs to learn how to survey the court and recognize where everyone is at. It’s like he only passes to Sengun because Sengun is constantly setting him picks but ignores everyone else.

    Positives: We had more rebounds, more assists, better 3pt percentage, tried KPJless game plan, good games from KJM and Matthews,Alpi's first triple double.

    Negatives: FT percentage, 21 points negative switch at the 4th quarter, poor Jabari shooting, typical disapearence of JGreen at 4th quarters.

    We did, the negative Nancy’s on here won’t ever be happy… 4th qtr Kings pressured Jalen more on the ball .. Rockets missed some layups (fouled on a few not called) Kings came down and hit 3s and that’s a wrap

    I have such a hard time seeing him become a consistent shooter when this is still his release point

    This was a good game regardless of how dem buthurt kpj fans paints it. It was close until the final 6 mins of the 4th quarter.

    I think alpi triple double is more reason y we should let this man b the main ball distributor.
    10 assist to 2 turnover quite insane.
