9:28 had me rollin😂
Fvv until the last 4 min in the 4th quarter he was good. But i really don't know what happened when the team start to fall apart he starts to play hero ball… Man it was 3 after 3 after 3… Missed all… With 17, 20 seconds on the clock, he's the guy that should work the ball, act like a real vet, do the simple play. Feed the hot hand. But no he thinks he's Steph to shoot from the logo.
Excellent points Frank . Thanks.Back up center is also needed so you can have your center a bit more fresher for the cluch time.
The same story happening again and again. The whole CF forum singing chorus for Jalen and I was not buying it. Jalen as usual did not show up when we needed him.
This is team is a really good young team but they need a very good back up center. Jock landale have become unplayable and Adams plays limited minutes, against the wolves Adams only played 3 minutes. Finally they need to add one more shooter since Reed is still struggling to adjust to life in the NBA.
Ime and Fred both fucked this game up at the end. Why???? Wow we threw that game away. Unreal. Giving up 16-point lead in 3 minutes…LOL WHAT??? I agree that Reed needs to be sent down to the G-League, he's mostly bench riding for no reason. He needs reps and if we're trying to win now and that plan doesn't really include rookies then just send him down to get reps. What we did with Cam and that seemed to have worked well since Cam seems ready to get NBA minutes again without tunneling too hard and actually playing defense.
Man, imagine if we had Chris Paul. 🙁
Once again, FVV AND JG shoot us out of a game. 11 for 31. I hate these two inconsistent ,inefficient ,inaccurate backcourt pkayers and wanting both traded away. We need players who are more level performers, and these guys win a few games and lose even more games. TRADE!TRADE! TRADE!
Yeah this was the game where we needed Dillion Brooks especially on that last possession. When ANT was on Tate that was a wrap because he got the matchup he wanted and he hit that step back three
The wolves did a great job getting Amen off of Ant because he kept him check pretty much for most of the game
like frank said "get his butt on to the vipers " wholeheartedly agreed.
Very disappointing loss…Fred the chucker…needed him to make better decisions…needed Coach to make better decisions. Hopefully they learn from this meltdown
Why do people and you keep talking about FVV like he's is some great player? I've examined his career closely, and he's mediocre at Best! This guy has more people snowed than any player I've ever seen. Overpaided and way overhyped you'll never sell me that Fvv is some super hero great pkayer that turned this team around . He did what any competent and decent point guard would have done at half the price. Love the rockets but sick of some of their propaganda. Theres lots of room for upgrades via trades but the team seems to be drinking thier own coolaid! Sad! With proper management this team could be transformed into a monster.
U need to be on Locked On Rocket's tomorrow bro💯
the one who made us lost the game is the person got in early to the court when gobert missed the free throw . we really needed that single point later on.
Good video Frank, props to AlP he had a great game.. the issue is teams will let ALP get his, it's only 2pts per possession.. it's a reason why if Jalen had 38 pts avs AlP have 14 pts, the Rockets would have won in a blowout out . This is why Everytime ALP has these 22 plus scoring games we either barley winning or we lose the game. At the end of the day the rockets beat player scoring 2s, the other team best player scoring 3s… Sengun took 25 shots out of the team 92 possessions, that's 27% of team total possessions and their all 2s, meaning less shots coming from your 3pt shooters, who could actually put the game away… I love Amen in the starting lineup, but the reality is, with him and Sengun on the floor together you won't even get up enough 3s to put the game away especially if you are giving ALP north of 19 shots a game… When we play Dallas you guys will see what im talking about in real time, the last time we beat them, Dallas shot just as horrible as we did from 3, but if they shoot anything close to 39%, AlP can go for 100 Pts, we still would loose
Great learning experience! 🤞🏻
One of the most heartbreaking losses of the past couple years honestly… the fact that we looked so good is encouraging but man I never would’ve expected us to become so complacent, especially under Ime. Like this is something we would’ve done in the Silas years and that hurts to say bro… Getting some high IQ guards will do wonders for this team.
We can only hope that this loss motivates them to never lose a game like this again. Shoutout Amen and sengun, it’s a shame their masterclass performances went to waste like this.
i don't even wanna watch the highlights to see what happened in the 4th because last time i checked we were up by 10+
makes me sick losing like this man, i hate it but i love my team
What happened to our live feeds right after the game? Where is ghost?
We need a star for game like that
Is that the reason Cam "felled" in the draft? (TUNNEL VISION AND HERO BALL)
Is Reed a "bad" pick? #3 in the entire draft. Too small (height& length) with no quickness. Where the shot? He will always be "hunted" on defense. UNPLAYABLE.
Alpi u cant miss ur FT's!! u cant trust ur backcourt in jalen and fvv to score or to put u in a good position and even when u cut and get in to a good postion scream and hands wide open, they miss the fkn pass bcs they cant process it, it hurts to watch it at this point.. they not it!! it's you, only you, u can trust!!
Been calling for Reed to be in the G-league for some time. He looked good in summer league because that is the type of competition he should be playing with right now. Give him another year or 2 of building his leg and core strength and he should be fine as a starting PG in the league.
Been saying Jabri should be higher on the scoring totem pole for a min. He's too efficient to not have more looks. It doesn't make sense.
Glad to hear someone else saying it
Jalen had the 1 turnover in the 4th when we were up by 10 and Fred literally just hijacked the offense from everyone. If sengun wasn’t his screen setter I don’t even think sengun woulda touched the ball.
We lost this game cuz we got lazy on defense n we’re getting beat in transition, The ball movement in the beginning of the 4th was completely halted, and Ime had a mental lapse, ample time to call a timeout.
Fvv is the main culprit of stopping the hot hand, especially in closing moments. I’ve seen him ice out jalen countless times, not feed Jabari when he’s hot, literally stole shots from sengun tonight and had no intention of passing it to anyone else cuz he didn’t even attempt to drive the ball for a paint touch.
I’m at the point where I would rather hav jalen or amen on ball as the lead guard and just deal with the 8 turnover games or the 4/22 from three games cuz at least I know those two or going to drive and kick the ball to whoever is open n get the defense in rotation.
Fvv will play a good/ avg. 45 mins, but tht last 3, he’s shown countless times tht he isn’t the PG, hes just another SG, and if he wants to be a shooter, then put the ball in the hand of the taller more athletic and dynamic scoring threat and put him off ball and let jalen/Sengun or Amen/Sengun two man game set up everyone else.
I love this team I appreciate Fvv for the culture tht he has helped bring to these young guys. Just be a table setter we don’t need u shooting 16-20 shots a game, 12-14 max
Vred is not act like a big brother ,more like playin for his fame… not like it… he is doin that too much .. End minutes he suppose to calm things down … make the team to focus… but not even close….
Alperen adına yakışır şekilde yakın dövüş mücadelesi yaptı onu kapalıyken pas atıcak arkadaşlarına bakıyor ama hepsi sabit duruyorlar oda kapalı defansı zorlamak zorunda kalıyor nerdeyse her pozisyonda . Pas almak için boşa kaçsalar pası alıcaklar yada karıştığı için potaya gitme şansı yakalıycaklar hareketsiz oldukları için çok zorlama el ustu potaya gitmeye çalışıyor alpide napsın super oynadı sonlarda takım rehavete kapıldı. Koçun bunu çozmesi gerekirdi. Bu takımın bir tane iyi uçluk atan az kaçıran istikrarlı bir şutore ihtiyacı var kesinlikle olsa defansta bu kadar çok ikili sıkıştıramaz pota altında
I was at this game. And as soon as he put Fred back in, the lead dwindled! It was as bad in person!
If they put Whitmore and Jabari in the closing they will win. Sad for the results
Nah…. you can't forgive the free throws cuz if he makes his this is a different show. Everything counts….. Jalen want great offensively but he had 6 assists and played great defense. Same with Amen and Bari…. offensively no one helped Sengun
My take is we played back to back games and Ime had to play the starters too much because the bench did not contribute much aside from Tate. Too bad Dillon or Tari was not available. Also we traveled between games. We stole a game from the TWolves and they stole one back. That's the way it is. Also, I am sick of Reed Sheppard right now. We could have had Zack Edey. Matt Maloney was a better player when he came into the league. Overall this has been a fantastic season. Obviously Sengun was the mismatch in the game. That is why we went to him. But he is still a young player. The Sengun fans and the Jalen fans want to point the finger at each other. Usually if one of them gets pulled out of the game it is because they are missing defensive assignments. Shooting probably has little to do with it. But really, I didn't watch the game. That is my take from watching podcasts and looking at the box score. I'll watch the game later. Maybe I will have a different point of view. Also, yeah when Fred is hot he looks good but when he is not he is a bum. He is a good ball handler but doesn't feed the hot hand when it is needed. He makes too much money and I hope we can get a replacement for him in the off season. But we might not.
Sengun happened. Yes he scored because he hijacked the way they played the previous few games. He came out demanding the ball and put up some of the ugliest shots in the history of basketball. This guy hamstrings this team. The ball was moving well in the previous games. But all you and that other podcaster must be on Senguns payroll. If he has a bad game you both never talk about it. But let him have a decent game and you are putting him in the hall of fame. Sengun was scored on at will. He cannot defend. He cannot defend. He cannot defend. Udoka left him on the court in crunch time and he did what he does and fails. Get a real job.
Shephard was bad in all aspects. He is better suited to play in Euro League.
Man Fred is killing me. Every time he took those shots down the stretch i knew they were misses.
We need Jabari to get more of his looks. We let a great game get away.
I Really enjoy watching You, Frank .. Keep that 🔥🔥 going !!! .. That said, (1) Yes, Reed Sheppard needs to be in the G-League. Watching him shoot 0-Whatever every night is Not helping anybody !! (2) We gotta start taking the ball out of FVV's hands. If this team is gonna go thru "growing pains," Let it be with Amen running the Point, and let Amen then kick it out to Jabari, FVV, or Jalen. The way this roster is constructed, Amen is the ONLY player on this roster that can truly Elevate this team, BUT Amen needs those end-of-game (POINT GUARD) Reps !!!
I was there. I almost cried 😢
Frank .. What do You think about a Trade for De'Aaron Fox (who's reportedly expressed interest in the Rockets, if traded) or Cam Johnson ??!!! I mean we CANNOT give up the 2027 Phoenix Pick Swap, but I propose giving up Reed Sheppard, Cam Whitmore, and other Draft Compensation beyond 2027.
Great pod but I disagree with your take on Reed!Seeing him hunting his shot now, he does need to make his shots against the bigger, faster NBA players. Any player drafted in a team not rebuilding would be shaky until at least ASB! Next year he will be way better but for now he needs to go through this
FVV would be effective if he becomes a pass first PG.
Who else is tired of Fred chucking 3’s in late game situations.
I can't understand why Jalen Green wasn't in the game during the last minutes. You had Tate in there why? I'm starting to think we should evaluate the coach
this is the first game i saw JG hurts the team not only on offense per usual but also in defense. How many times he missed divincenzo and he made 3pts? If Brooks or Eason played today it would be a whole different game. Alpi did what he always do, carried his team against challenging teams unlike JG has ever done.. Cam and JG are not versatile. they only know how to ram through loose defense and explode with no guarantee of points.. nothing else nothing!
Was at the game, some fan kept yelling at Ant with about 2 minutes left and said he was getting clamped. Ant looked straight at him and shook his head. Looked at him twice. Ant then went to talk to Randle. They stepped up beyond the moment. I knew at that moment things weren’t going to be fun.
Fred has to go, I’m sick of him hijacking the offense and dribbling the shot clock to shoot random threes. The Rockets have great ball movement when he’s not playing. This is not his team! He shouldn’t have more shot attempts than Jabari.
Ime udoka bad coaching is what happened at the end of the game
I am not surprised because we are a young team. Ime is a great coach but he is not a veteran coach. Our young players will commit mistakes and so will our young coach. We will have these types of games, so be ready. When you're young, this is the process. I am not worried about this type of a loss because we are winning and fighting. Is just we lost in a few minutes. The loss that I don't like is if we are not fighting and we just let them take that win.
Ngl bari looking soft af on the boards, and why does ime keep playing Reed, that’s not helping anybody out. Also why didn’t we close with holiday who was playing lock down D yesterday
