Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) discusses the Houston Rockets back-to-back slate of weekend games with Friday’s 122-121 comeback win against the Phoenix Suns and Saturday’s 120-101 stinker against the Golden State Warriors. Jalen Green’s HUGE 20-point third quarter to spearhead the Rockets comeback against the Suns, followed by Kevin Porter Jr. and Bruno Fernando carrying in the fourth, perimeter defense allowing Steph Curry, Andrew Wiggins and Jordan Poole to go off, the Rockets refusal to make Alperen Sengun a focal point, capitalizing on positive chemistry between Jalen/Sengun and KPJ/Bruno and more.

Just ask Silas why he doesn’t see the true talent in Sengun. Stop blaming his defense
. Eg is to old and the wings give up to much.
For Garuba's minutes, Alpi and Garuba can play together.
The rockets can win if jalen green develope his scoring consistency
Look at this people. Just look at what these last few years have done to Jackson. So defeated he just asked nicely again if Silas would stagger KPJ and Jalen bc he knows Silas won't bring him off the bench. We feel ya buddy.

Sengün only playing 20 minutes against the warriors is just unacceptable man
This organization ruining senguns future i wish al p got traded next season
KPJ wants to be the best player on the team. He even recently said he needed to push himself harder to catch up with Green. He will not feed Alpy the ball to help the Rocket's win because he doesn't want Alpy to get the spotlight. KPJ should be psychoanalyzed so we know WTF we are dealing with. Alpy is the next Domatas Sabonis but not as experienced but already a better defender. I do not want to see the Rockets have another James Harden like player. That was the most boring shit I have every watch from a winning team.
KPJ and Bruno runs the Silas offense better than JG and AlP. Silas is not going to bring KPJ off the bench but JG coming out sooner to come back in with ALP would be idea. That 1st unit together is not ideal and you are right Jackson. Silas need to run the pairs offset. Silas doesn't win more than last year he is toast.
Tillman expects more wins and that is what Silas will be graded on. If Silas don't want to play to strengths for wins then he deserves being an assistant coach again. He can force his offense all he wants but KPJ ain't Luka. He needs to work with what he has not just solely leaning on guard play.
Can someone tell me why for the life of me why Jabari is not doing the jump balls over Sengun? Jackson, can you ask Silas why this is not the case? I'm concerned that Silas has issues thinking outside the box. "Oh your a center? Well you do jump balls even if our PF is taller and more athletic than you." 😒
The last five NBA champions. Starting from most recent the Warriors, Bucks, Lakers, Raptors, & Warriors. When's the last time you are anyone saw an NBA champion, start a center with Alpies skill set. DON'T WORRY I'LL WAIT……………………? I just think you're overvaluing a center in today's NBA. Unless you draft a once-in-a-generational transcended player like a Victor Wembanyama ‼️‼️‼️
The truth is Victor Wembanyama it's exponentially better than Al P right now. All the way down to his English, & not something that you or anyone should dare to compare. If Victor Wembanyama was on the Rockets right now we'd be a play in team or playoff team.
Been waiting for this one! Kinda takes a little of the fun out of it though listening about the big comeback against the Suns after we've already lost to the Warriors.
