    He needs to get stronger. He always struggles on guys he can't push into the paint because he settles for these finesse shots outside of it like he's Dirk. He's not.

    Dillon Brooks has been a big part of the culture, but he’s not been a difference maker on defense and is a spare part on offense. I think they can upgrade there. Even if it’s more Bari minutes.

    That possession where Jalen got to the rim and was fouled was the first time if seen this team move like that in a halfcourt set.

    We need to play that fast on offense all the time.

    Jalen has to learn to seek contact. That's all he should be working on. Turn the corner. Out jump everyone at the rim. Get to the line. Figure that out first. Then work on the jumper.

    It's almost comical. He starts dribbling, he feels pressure and just gives it up after wasting 10 seconds.

    Hopefully the Rockets can address the offense issues and find some pieces while being able to keep our defense intact for next season.

    But still hope we can pull off a comeback and win this game 7.

    Rockets need someone that can get us a bucket when offense bogs down. We don't have that dude on the roster now.

    We have always been realistic, this is not his final form. We overachieved cuz of him. If he doesn't develop any outside shot in 4 years then you can say it but come on. He's literally 22 and outperforming every center at his age in the history of the league without a threat of shooting,

    FVV has shown up but the Warriors are not letting him get hot tonight.

    We really needed a Jalen game today man.

    It’s crazy because we had the harden offense watch was really tough to watch when it wasn’t working on hardens off night…then Silas…then ime. To Ime’s credit I’ve never been more excited watching a team play defense but you can’t be this inept on offense or it doesn’t work. Whatever they’re doing on offense doesn’t work without a star in the playoffs.
