Letβs go!
Jalen need to be Inspired Again.
4 game winning streak. We need to get to 50 wins. We got this. Get Amen back and healthy will help. No more injuries ππ½ππ½
Brooks cookin, Jalen stay up and not so random.
So upcoming games for Rockets , Dallas – Bulls – 76ers – Orlando
MiamiDenver – Hawks- Jazz – Suns- Lakers- Jazz – OKC- GSW – ClippersLakersDenver..Ngl , i see at least 10 W in this schedule. I feel like we'll 50+ win easily. Probably gonna lose to lakers denver okc and maybe gsw.
Rockets fans seems okay with 4th seed in general / chilling. I think houston deserved the 2nd seed this season. People don't mention alot but Rafael Stone did great job so far with udoka . I couldn't comprehend his genius i must admit. Thought he is the worst gm. Nope he was good i just didn't see .
Alpi's best assist is the one that he faked the entire opposing team with a behind the head no look pass in one the previous seasons, but I really like his sauce is coming back.
I don't care if Jalen scores 25+ points every game. All I care about is him to achieve 5+ rebounds 5+ assists with an above the leage average shooting percentage consistently.
We have a very healthy team stats recently. Everyone contributes.
Plumlee is such an a.hole. Adams saved him from a career ending injury in the past, and this ishow he pays him back.
Fun fact. Sengun had 1.00 FG% in this game
I just like the fact that udoka is becoming more flexible in his decision making which have resulted in deploying Zones and double bigs to help the team. Iβve been yelling for him to sometimes vary his defensive scheme when he was doggedly & totally over relying on switching. Variations & Flexibility is good for the team.

Thanks JG
Biggest difference is Ime incorporating more actions on the elbow around Alfred and the focus of Jalen green in the pick n roll w Alfred and Jabari. Lot less of FVV bringing the ball up the court and just dumping it down to Alfred in the post
Good win and we boost our chance whith the suns pick!!!!ππππππ
25:15 I disagree with you on this one Jackson. Sengun is like the Mozart of basketball. Don't limit his creativity and genius.

Alp must attempt more shots.. 7 is not acceptable..
You're good at this.
Go Rockets
Go Rockets!!!
Oh jalen oh jalen. What am i supposed to believe? Do i allow myself to be deceived again by March JG or is he really turning the corner? Why does he do this to us? All I know now is that I definitely wouldn't trade for DBook, i was already of the opinion that he was too old, too injury prone and not a 1a star but I would still explore trading Jalen this off season. Anthony Edwards is No1 on the list if things implode in Minnesota if not we may as well hold onto Jalen if he keeps showing this type of potential
