Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by Madison Moore (@MadManLeaks) to discuss and react to the Houston Rockets ending the 13-game losing streak behind a career-high 42 point night from Jalen Green in a 119-114 win against the Minnesota Timberwolves. How did Jalen bounce back from arguably his worst game ever and what adjustments did he make to find the success against Minnesota, Alperen Sengun being game planned for EARLY by the Wolves opening opportunities for other guys, Rockets rebounding by committee against Rudy Gobert, Tari Eason continues to be impactful as a starter, Jae’Sean Tate pushing the pace and taking pressure off Jalen as a ball handler and more.

What was your favorite part about Jalen Green's bounce back game and career-high night?
Instead of locked on rockets player of the game it should be head honcho of the game
JG mention the guys post-conference interview that he talks to, to get his mind right after a bad game. I quote Scoot, Tate, KJ my guys. All I can say is, he said a mouthful!
Jalen is a sponge, that's why he needs a veteran.
Should we trade EG for James Wiseman for a bigger backup big?????
I give you, Native Houstonian and credentialed media member Justin Gatlin, all credit for getting Jalen fired up after your spot-on critique of his previous game. Went from "worse game of his career" to "the best game of Jalen Green's career." Also, the positive impact of Tari Eason starting is most significant!
madison is a grate guest on the show and he dose a good job
The way Maddison speaks reminds me of Perkins 😂not his takes tho, thankfully
That's a great idea with getting the 1 + 1 challenge. That's what I've been thinking for sure.
Al p is the system, he’s always asking for the ball to keep it moving but our players are too selfish to give it to him sometimes
The team goes the way Green goes….. BARZ
Porter is gonna want his shots. Trade him or bring him off the bench.
Lineup for development should be and should have always been Jalen, Martin, Tari, Bari, Sengun. Write this down.
I am ok with Jalen just need him to develop more keep the ball moving and let the game come to him. Finally a game where they played hard from the beginning to the end.
Jaleen is not good for Sengun's development. NOT AT ALL
I know you've got the mic, but your guest's volume is always much lower than yours.
Loved getting the win, but I'm afraid it just bought Silas more time. 😔 Win or lose Silas needs to go now! Was kinda hoping the losing streak would get so big that the front office had no excuse and no alternative but to fire Silas! Just curious as to what is gonna happen once KPJ comes back into the mix. Is Alpy gonna go back to barely touching the ball and playing 28 minutes tops? You never can tell with Silas! 😔
I'm glad we agree about Jae'Sean Tate. When I watch Tate, I think of Draymond Green. Of course he's a much more gentleman player. If Tate was 2 years younger it would be great
Tari needs more time on the court! We gotta get EG outta here soon! Love EG, but guys like KJ and Tari are having precious minutes taken away by a guy like EG playing so many minutes!
The rockets need to be real with themselves and scratch the KPJ experiment. He's not the true PG that the team need, and it's also slowing the development of Jabari. Until Jabari learns to playmake and play in the post, he will need that true PG to facilitate.
best win
Jalen is y'all daddy lol don't ever doubt that man again
The rockets need to trade kpj asap before he looses trade value. They need to build around sengun green smith jr and hopefully victor. And hope that’ll attract one or two established all stars.
Next year we don’t have our own pick so no point tanking, off season priorities should be fire Silas, get Quin or Atkinson, if we get wemby we should bring harden back trade for a good point guard as kpj just isn’t a point and if we get Scoot I think we should throw the bag at Myles Turner then you have a starting 5 of scoot, green, smith, Sengun, Turner with kpj, eason, Tate, Martin n some decent vets filling out the roster and that team can compete
They can develop a productive pick and roll . Jalen and baby Jok
