Supp Madison And Jackson
Sengun seems to have much quicker lateral motion and shoots 3Ps flawlessly.
Jabari needs to shoot better or shoot less. He decreases overall efficiency.
Cam is a great end-effector. He's unstoppable when he has the momentum and receive tye right assist. He delivers.
Adams hasn't played in a year, plus he's in a new team, New team mates, new structure. More games and he will be sweet
I’m just happy to see my boy Jalen cook because if he didn’t, that’s all anyone would be talking about💪🏾
most exciting rockets team I can remember (I've blocked out those Harden years by now – just vaguely recall excruciating playoff flameouts and jh13 nuking the team in deplorable fashion)
I noticed Alpi didn't fall down one time, that I can remember. Jalen was good. Reed was too tight and McVeigh was loose as a goose. I would mind it if ole Jack made the team over Tate. I'm not sure if any of our G Leaguer's are ever going to play much on an NBA roster outside of McVeigh. The jury is still out on him. Not sure if he is a "Ime kinda guy". (Defensive player) The first quarter was awesome on defense. Cam played good outside of his 2 turnovers in a row,
All rockets starters sat down in third quarter, an utah still have markanen, clarkson and sexton until fourth😂
Hi Jackson…love your work and enthusiasm. Can you ask someone in Rockets organization what is real Jalen height. On this roster for preseason games he is listed 6 6, but on every other site he is listed 6 4. Has he grown from rookie year? Is that information some kind of secret? Please ask this question when you can. Thanks in advance
Steven Adams screens are not something so special we need to rave about it all the time.
cam whitmore and senguns chemistry is goated
Amen is NASTY, loved Cam Whitmore too. Man this team is unreal
This is the kind of start we need from Jalen with more consistency and if he does he will get a max and we will make the playoffs. Great show and Go Rockets!!
They need to do more than just show promise, they need to learn how to close out games and not give up big leads. It's time the rockets form their identity, in the league
I like Sengun a lot. He's fitter and looks like he'll be different this season.
