    I don't think anyone really overrated FVV, most people knew we had to overpay to get him, most people were not that excited by the deal.

    FVV is playing fine but I do think he needs to get more aggressive when it looks like the offense starts to slog down. I think he's been a good pickup overall though, I just wish he could pick up the scoring when it looks like we can't score.

    We were not hustling but Tari needs to start and Jalen needs to play less and more Cam

    You STFU , I hardly ever speak negative of Rockets players - I will point out things they need to improve in the offense but I’ve never attacked a player like you r****ds ..and you keep bringing race into it.. making an ass put yourself infront of this whole forum.. prob why 90% of members got you blocked.

    Now go sit on a frozen banana and leave these discussion to grown folks

    Basketball is not just about jumping. Didn’t learn from Jokic and Doncic? Someone should teach that to Jalen also.

    You clearly are not very familiar with his game.

    Also, hustling doesn't equal good or bad defense, in fact, hustling is pretty irrelevant when it comes to the quality of a players defense. You can be a hustle player and still play poor defense.

    No one could finish around the rim tonight. Not Sengun and not Jalen. Some pretty big defensive lapses as well team-wide. The worst was the turnovers. Plus the Lakers out hustled us. That’s pretty much the game summary.

    Lol his one thing is spamming 3s and facilitating.

    That's all he does well when he is hot.

    Going aggressively to the hole?


    He can't, I don't fault him for looking like a mini biker dude and not like an athlete

    It is honestly getting ridiculous.

    The dude is a good player, but he clearly has limited athletic ability, poor conditioning and simply cannot keep up defensively.

    Again, like I said early in the season, if you want Alpe to be the man on this team, then you have to hope and pray that Jalen and Jabari become as good as they can be, because Alpe alone is not good enough, FVV does not care, and Dillion Brooks is just dumb.

    Otherwise, we will be trading Alpe and starting over. UNLESS Cam Whitmore becomes the next Tyrese Haliburton or something.

    Once Jalen waver,bad things happen
    I think Jalen is learning how to playing NBA level basketball and hope he can figure it out
    Silas wasted everyone a lot of time
