Happy Thanksgiving Jackson. Thanks for the great content â€
Smith and Green are the difference between a good team and a great team. Once those two figure out that they need to listen to their coaching, the Rockets will be contenders. Right now Green needs to attack the basket like he did. Everything will key off of that. Smith needs to realize that even if his shot is not falling, he can still grab rebounds and score inside. Once he realizes that, he can dominate. Sengun, Amen, and Tari are doing great. Reed has been a disappointment so far. Holiday is better off the bench. Udoka may need to prioritize Holiday over Reed and let Reed get his experience in garbage time this year. Cam just needs to work on his game overall.
We need to get Cam Whitmore back beforw the Thunder game. We dont have enough offensive firepower to keep up with the Thunder.
I much rather have Cam in the rotation than Reed. Reed is tok hesistant and scared to do anything, offensively.
Cam dont have that issue. He's a dog….an alpha and aint scared at all.
Turkey, Mac & Cheese, Dressing, Candied Yams, Mashed Potatoes.
6 man – Sweet Potato Pie
Jalen has no field vision or IQ
I'm concerned with all these OT games. Back to back. Happy for the win, but can we please not add an extra quarter?
Alpi was tired for sure !! Atmosphere made it him focus that
I like team respect 76s players
Houston needs that get a player 0
Number home

A couple weeks ago ESPN had a âBest Texas NBA teamâ report, both the spurs and mavs were mentioned and the rockets nowhere to be seen đ
Our halfcourt offense outside of Alpi is nearly inexistent. This season is being and hopefully will end up being a total success regardless, but it's something to look out for in the next season if we really want to contend.
I wholeheartedly disagree with this narrative. When Udoka sits Sengun out at the end of certain games , the reasons are obvious. This guy turns the ball over in crucial moments & you cannot do that when the game is on the line. Amen Thompsonâs defense contributed more to Rockets winning then what Sengun did in the end. Landale probably couldâve done the same thing on a hot night.
Ps. Jalen scored 41pts remember?
Turkey
Mashed potatoes
Green bean casserole
Dressing w/ gravy
Hawaiian roll
Banana pudding (The dessert GOAT)
You remove the mashed potatoes. And replace it with Cajun Rice. I'm with you all the wayđ
superstar players win games when necessary… this player that no one knows was selected as the 16th pick… now he is the best player on the team… agree or disagree… the future of the team is sengun…
You are delusional. Get some help. You make everything Rockets about Sengun even when he fails 90 % of the plays in a game. Don't you know the other players read your drivel and know you are pandering to Sengun for access. And how does a podcaster with only 17000 subscribers get media credentials. You act like you are trying to date Sengun's sister.
Go Rockets!!!
Havent felt this happy as a Rox fan in so long, WE BACK BABY!
We are on the rise this year, taking names, writing checks and proving doubters!!! Go Houston Rockets!!!
Hey Jackson! any chance you could give us an update on Cam Whitmore in one of the next episodes? Whatâs going on with him?
The Rockets are still a very sensitive and fragile team. There is no continuity except for Alperen and Amen. The only and biggest improvement compared to last year is the defense, and that is due to Alperen improving himself in this regard. A team that is so unstable in three-point shooting cannot become a champion.
I normally call Dillon Brooks Dillon the villain endearingly but watching that game in person yesterday. I felt he was more villainous than Dr.Evil. Selling me. Everyone has a off night but man that one stung
Okay, Iâm ready to say it.
If Tari and Amen are doing their terror thing and the Rockets get at least two other players to score at least 20 points each, they can beat any other team in the West four games out of any given seven games, with the possible exception of OKC. OKC is the class of the WC and the standard by which the Rockets need to measure themselves the rest of the year. Therefore the upcoming game against OKC is a huge measuring stick for the Rockets.
Winning culture is being established⊠Next 4 games are going to be critical!.
A big problem is when AP sits out our scoring suffers because Jock is so bad
Pretty difficult game against a injury-destroyed opponent… But I'll give Rockets the fact that it's back-to-back road game all the way on the other side of the country/continent, after Minesotta.
I'm really happy with the game JG had against the 76ers but we will need all that against OKC. OKC is a big game, but he was able to show out against them last year when he was on his streak. He needs to do that again.
Our main problem this season we'll continue to be that some of core unit guys having off nights each night. It's always at least 2 players that are liability.
Fortunately it's always 2 different players so it's easier to overcome that and keep winning as much as possible. It shows lack of consistency and experience and not lack of quality. Consistency and experience are easier to overcome than lack of quality.
Go rockets đ
the without sengun minutes are our problem. Adams cant even sprint the court, and jock cant hit a barn door at the moment.
JL need to continue selling fouls like Harden, I believe he will be much better.
We are so back baby. Alpi the goat!
Top 5:
1. Corn Pudding
2. Dirty Rice
3. Dressing with Sausage
4. Broccoli Casserole
5. Turkey
6. Sweet Potato Pie
Everyone is unhappy about certain players. May it be Alpi, Jalen, Bari, Fred. And rightfully so. But man, me? I'm just happy we're winning…and with a REALLY young core.
I love Giannis here in Houston. But if Sengun and Green play like this. We don't need Giannis.lols I am impressed with Thompson.
