    Why does it always seem like other teams hit every 3 in the final seconds to keep it close

    Ime hasnt done **** when we win its due to isos from KD or Alpi so what do you even mean Ime has us at third? Thats Stone getting talent on this team. KD iso means Ime hasnt done ****. No plays just tell everyone to give the ball to KD and get out of the way and you think that Ime's coaching????

    Secondly learn how the salary cap works do you even know we are already just 1M under the apron? You cant afford all these guys and still have money for yet another guard.

    Plus did you not just see Reed Sheppard just win the game? We already have a FVV replacement its not Stones fault if Ime wont play him.

    Honestly, I kind of wonder if this quads injury has played a role in his shooting declining this season instead of continuing to improve. He said he's been playing through this injury for awhile.

    It's really weird how his FT% has improved so much and his shooting has not. Quads are one of the main muscle groups used in initiating your jump shot, and to my eye he's been online on a lot of shots but just really short.

    Safe to say Reed is Dickerson’s favorite Rocket.

    I cannot overstate how huge Reed was this game…we came back from a 19 point deficit in just 4 minutes or so because of him and KD (and Tari’s disruptive defense).

    And he played the entire 4th and hit BIG shots.

    Huge win against a good team with a good home record!
