    who knew that was imporrrtt....err oh wait.

    Someone proved the importance of the 3pt shot 10+ years ago.

    That person might have been the GM of the rockets????

    But nevermind, we can listen to the importance of only defense and then hear the media members of the rockets regurgitate Ime's talking points

    They clearly don't like playing for Ime. I won't go so far as to say they've quit on him, but they definitely look like they have zero confidence in this coaching staff.

    I don't know what Cod's sauces are, but the folks I know are pretty clear about negative energy. The rockets don't really have an open hostility energy towards Ime (not surprising), but they convey it pretty clearly in a cold manner behind the scenes.

    Tari is mercinary playing for a contract. Any other dumbass would have sent him to the bench already

    Remember when the nuggets fired Malone before the playoffs? I’m beginning to be okay with Ime gone regardless of where we’re at in the season.

    Fell asleep, woke up to a blown out team. Again.

    When are people going to take a good look at the coaching? We're running around with no offense scheme.

    Clap, clap, play harder 2.0.

    nuggets can afford to do that because they had an elite duo in Jokic and murray.

    who's elite on rockets?

    dickerson? OLD
    sengun? laughable
    amen? glorified ben simmons
    jabari? kwame brown 2.0
    reed? mind as well live at a casino because he's a gambler on defense

    Sengun’s stock keeps getting lower and lower. Stone fuc*ed up. I thought they should have done this deal for Giannis a year ago and possibly kept JG and Brooks. I don’t think Bucks would want Sengun. Maybe he is dealt to another team separately or a third team and a deal is centered around Amen?

    As I said before having 2 nonshooters limit this team. It’s not lack of effort. It’s just this team isn’t as talented as other teams

    I think this is exaggerated and oversimplification but the issue is overall Rockets aren’t as talented. As I said no teams in the league play with 2 nonshooters as their main scorers. Teams load up strong side and leave weakside corner open because Amen in the corner can’t shoot. I don’t care if phil Jackson or pat riley comes in here. No coach can fix this. Also rockets can’t make open shots for whatever reason the other teams make theirs and we can’t. Reed Sheppard, Tari, Okogie. None of these guys can consistently make shots.

    I expect a major shakeup unless Stone wants to see what this team can do with a pg. it hasn’t worked for 3 years.
