LETSSSSSSS GOOOOOOOOOO ROCKETS
I agree with Alperen's comments. Thank you. I want you to watch Alperen's fight in detail in all positions, both defense and attack. The man reveals his heart.
I'm watching a lot of comments.
If only he had scored 4 more points, All the comment would changed 180 degres.
tari in transition.. just him the ball and the rim.. he 100% slip or something like that.. HAHAHAHA ahh thats great π
As Rockets fans, we need to stop giving praises to a choker like Harden.
My precious friend,
Achieving success in basketball in Turkey is not an easy task. I am 50 years old and I have fallen in love with basketball. I tried so hard. I know the roads Alperen traveled. As I watch it, I think that if I could have made it, maybe I would be there. Our love is partly for this reason.
Alperen is not a 21-year-old kid. Rest assured, it is his destiny to be successful even when pushed.
I like Dillon Brooks and he is positive for our developing team. He speeds up the maturing process of the young players, and he should stay with us at least for two more seasons.
However, if our goal is to reach a championship at the prime of Sengun, Green and the others, we need to build a team without Dillon Brooks.
He has never reached a positive BPM rating in his career and his average is -3.8. The last year he was the 3rd worst player in NBA, while Jabari was the 5th worst.
That makes Brooks a negative player for his team.
We can afford to have him now but a championship contestant Rockets cannot rely upon Dillon.
Dillion was on π₯in the 4th! He willed us to this win! He took the Grizzlies rejection this summer personally.
How are we this good with such an anemic offense? Udoka is showing the league there's another way (a better way) to win. Everyone thinks you need "stars" – that's the easy way to be good. Udoka is showing everyone that a "team" can beat your super star. No one does this in the NBA anymore – good to see someone is trying to do it the hard way. This is going to be a scary team in the future. Love that Bismack Biyombo trade.
Bro do you have a playlist for your background songs?
I'm more willing to believe that Sengun and possibly Jalen had the bug that hit the team. Sucks that we play them back to back. Let's see next time we play them how Sengun looks.
This team will get much better once Jabari can play as an actual stretch 4 and not a 3. Jaren and Bismack vs Sengun and Jabari mainly turned into a 2v1 against Sengun.
Jabari also needs to gain some more explosiveness at the rim, often times for putback dunk opportunities he doesn't go up strong and almost gets blocked by the rim, so he sure as hell won't overpower strong defenders on those putback dunks. But the fact that he has increased his rebounding so much this year shows he is on his way.
Another A1 breakdown π I completely agree with trying to pick up Biyambo. Heβs the perfect back up for Alpi.
It's crazy how the game started with the tribute to Dillion Brooks just for him to turn around and hit the dagger. That's mean!! #9ππ₯π§±
the fact thy won that game with those shooting numbers is (positively) crazy…
I love the pod. we see eye to eye about most things on the Rockets, however I disagree on Jalen. what Jalen is going to become is still up in the air. the jury is still out. Udoka is rebuilding Jalen. Silas wasted the first 2 years of his career. Jalen seems willing to be molded. he has the physical abilities, but he has to put in the work to grow his game. for the first time he is getting the kind of coaching that can help him. does that mean guaranteed suscess….NO, but it also means drawing any comclusion may be premature. the same can be said about most of the younger players we have. some will progress faster than others, but all are rookies to me because this is their first year being taught the GAME. the Rockets brought in the perfect mix of vets to be the training wheels as you so well put it. however considering what I watched last year compared to this year has me excited about the future. the Rockets may not be able to pop wheelies or do tricks yet, but they are slowly learning how to ride this bike
Back to back ugly Offense, glad we scraped up the W regardless. Great analysis Frank
