    We'll find out on tomorrow. Sengun and Reed are 0-2 against a 41yr old and a bunch of role players.

    You are such an unreasonable hater.

    Putting this on Reed who is a second year player? Technically 1st year since he was hardly played last year and Reed is currently being used as a role player.

    Reed is also 17/4 as a starter and shooting 38% from 3 on high volume, yes he had a terrible 1st game but he is CONSISTENT from 3 and he only gets 10 mins in game 2?

    You need to stfu and stop putting the losses on Reed, yes he has been bad at defense but he isn't the main reason we are losing.

    The stats back up Reed to be able to perform as there is 82 games of data on his consistency, but i guess you would rather your love of Jalen who is absolutely attrocious.

    I know you're in pain, you're boyfriend is letting you down again.

    There's more appropriate people to talk to about it. Get the help you need. It's going to be okay

    In analyzing what YOU wrote, basically you're saying Reed hasn't shot well, he had a bad 1st game and he has been playing bad defensively BUT he deserves more playing time and I need to shutup. Wow!

    I just don't understand the logic.

    Well, the Playoffs are about experience, I expected from a long time poster to know such triviality.

    I’ve always thought this trade was a win because I don’t think Jalen is good at basketball. However after this playoffs I will gladly admit I was wrong. I’d rather have Jalen green out there trying and missing shots than what KD is doing. Absolute joke, dude quit on us. Is absolute cancer. Can we even give him away?

    JG always plays good in the first 3 quarters but fall short in the 4th in this sereis against OKC. But that's OKC the best perimeter defense team in the leage, so this enormous physical exertion is understandable. If JG and Dillon were still with the Rockets instead of Katie, we'd be easily up 2-1 against this ass Lakers right now.

    Regardless of how u feel about jg or considered him a bust, the kd trade was not worth it or a win.

    The vibes r down and the locker room is a toxic wasteland with kd and his burner accounts.

    You just mentioned Jalen Green twice like it's 2 Jalen clones. And you claim everyone else is the obsessives :)?

    Then this is not about Dillon Brooks. This is only about Jalen Green. Can't conveniently attach Dillon to Jalen to help Jalen's cause. I don't think much of Jalen. I forever say that Durant for Jalen is the right move for 30 out of 32 teams.

    But THAT ALL said: Rockets are one of the hypothetical " 2 teams" Durant doesn't fit. Not because of the players & talent. Or even Durant. It's because this front office & coaching culture doesn't know how to assemble a cohesive team unit

    Yes keeping Jalen & Brooks would have been better than going for Durant. To save the front office & coach from exposing themselves as bad culture builders

    He is 0-2 as a playoff starter. Don't give him qb wins as a starter during regular season and make excuses for poor performance in the playoffs. Either he is good enough or he is not. He is paid millions of dollars and the son of 2 former collegiate players, he should be better.

    Having Dillon Brooks and Jalen Green would completely change the outlook of this team. It's just not even close, KD was so random and pointless.... He will never be remembered for being a Rocket.... He probably won't be here longer than this year.... Trading not one but two key players from the starting lineup is insane.... These are the kind of moves that put a team back in rebuild mode, Stone set us back 10 years ..

    if nothing else last year's team was far more fun to watch. It was easy to root for that squad, this year not so much

    It was more fun to watch because it was flat out better, Jalen Green would be picking apart anyone on The Lakers right now..... Dillon would be punching LeBron in the dick and pissing him off...... Honestly, we would be up 3-0......... Those guys are balling against the eventual champs..... Memphis was proof of why you don't trade Dillon Brooks but here we are....

    I don't like both, either way I have no official horse in this imaginary race.

    Jalen is the fun player in persona but nearly impossible to build around, bc of his inefficiency and his Defense that is far from being Postseason ready.

    Brooks is who he is, a guy that is a good player but his antics are just not fooling anyone on the Thunder or Spurs,

    esp. Thunder have his Canadian teammates.
