COMMENT: WHAT WAS THE BEST AND WORST THING ABOUT THE ROCKETS 122-103 WIN VS THE INDIANA PACERS?
I believe good things are going to happen for us. Thank God for structure, consistency & accountability that is the only way to develop young men, oh yeah & tough love!
Cam Whitmore is unbelievable!
Cam is HIMMMM
Houston Fans, I’m so HAPPY
Landale looked horrible! He and Brooks were the only disappointment!
You guys are giving way too much credit to Udoka. KPJ not playing is bigger factor than Udoka imo.
Amen almost looked too comfortable to me. Idk a weird thing to say but he has to play more on edge and with more bite
It can't just be me noticing Cam has "it" and is a consistent and unwavering believer in himself.
It was fun watching Rockets once again, during the game I noticed how much I missed basketball
Cam Whitmore is going to be better than Jalen easily. Jalen actually brings the least to the table out of the core 6.
Cam gonna be better than lots of players, he may even be no 3 most important player in that roster in two years.
I don’t blame Jalen Green for feeling a little lost out there. He hasn’t been in a team with an actual structure since high school.
Return to Houston Rockets Championship Basketball!! Green better get his act together and buy into this new culture or this will become Jabari's team. Bari looks like he's going to take a massive leap!! 🚀🚀🚀
Jalen will have the hardest time adjusting to Udokas play style. If he doesn't get it together he will get traded, this isn't AAU anymore. I love Jalen Green, but he's got to buy in
It was great to see a real team and a real coach in Houston again.
FVV and Jalen are inefficient players that needs to be fixed
We need to seriously talk about how good Cam can be
The G league team and two rookies Matt Mayer and Cam are way better than the starting 5
Cam will be a problem! You heard it here first!! ❤
36 in the fourth quarter is always good 🚀
Jalen Green= Jaylen Brown
Cam Whitmore= Jayson Tatum
😳
Cam is on that 2K my career mode where he start out at the bottom but some things happens so he ended up getting extra chance to prove him self.
1. He slid to 20th pick which made people talk about him all night during the draft since top 4 was selected
2. Bari&Tari going off and injured Amen gave all the play and time for Amen durning summer
3. With the narrative for the draft night and him getting opportunity winning summer league MVP gave one of the biggest media coverage
4. Unfortunate event of KPJ who definitely would’ve took time off the playing time is gone from the roster
Cam looked confident. If I didnt witness him get drafted, I would’ve thought he was a three year veteran. Eason and Tate will need to play hard or sacrifice some minutes.
Amen was off last night and I need to see Cam play like that every game
