    Sooooo, I’m in the Amsterdam Airport and ran into this tall dude sporting Rockets gear.  I introduced myself and he said his name was Clint.  Man, he was as nice and gracious as he could be.  I told h

Brooks took all the momentum out of the team with his normal bullshit.

Hard pass on Simmons

He signed with LAC

Jalen got a little Clyde the Glide in him on some of those layups recently

Please win today.
Please.
How about get blown out?

Guess the Rockets decided it would be funny to piss off Mavs fans even more by making Nico look like a genius.

Did we just miss 5 shots on one possession jfc burn it down

So at least we arent the only team to blow massive leads

We were too good to make any moves at the deadline so we didn’t break up guys and now we can’t win games and are regressing. Hope we get Fred back soon and hope what we saw wasn’t just a flash in the pan hot streak.

6 losses in a row. FUCK! 

We will never win again 

 

 

a leader needs to step up in that locker room and light a fire under this young and talented team 

 

 

The Cavs got DeAndre Hunter for a handful of 2nds and some average players. He was exactly what this team needed, a near 40% 3pt shooter, a tall defensive wing, he would have fit right in. Cam Johnson also would have been a huge upgrade on offense, but instead of turning 20m of expiring players that aren't the least bit necessary for this team, we get to let it expire and lose all those trade chips. Just dumb of them to not flip some of that into a top 6 rotation guy. 

Can't even beat a Luca-less Mavs team smh. Just when I started to like basketball again we start playing like we're the worst team in the NBA

Now Alpi gets hurt.

We are a dumpster fire

The defense has really been atrocious over the last couple of weeks, too.  I’m guessing we’re getting played differently with Smith out and it took a couple of weeks for the league to figure out how to do it.  Or just general health and nagging injuries everywhere are hindering team D.  

^^^
its funny that you post that in a game that they give up only 42 points in the 1st half. 

How bad?
He was grabbing his lower back after trying to make a move on offense a few minutes into the game and left.

Good recovery to win this one 

Damn, I forgot Ivey was on the staff.

This team cannot win in the playoffs. 

I love watching them play, but there is not one consistent shooter. 

If Reed becomes who he's supposed to be, that changes slightly. However there has to be a corner 3 player, and there isn't. 

Playoff teams will not let consistent lane play and points off turnovers be the game plan to defeat them. 

Cam can be that. Reed can be that. But until they are that, this is a fun team that can't run in the playoffs.

 

On cue, Tari shoots a wide open air ball.

And Tari is my dude. He's a baller. But he's not a knockdown.

Put some respek on Dillon Brooks knock down 3 lmao

No Fred and they still pull it off. Just think if they had found a way to turn Fred+filler and picks to get KD on this team. He's absolutely the killer shooter this team is missing. Maybe they can swing a trade for him next year, it would be fun.

Right now, this team needs Fred. There is not a floor general.  I used to think it would be Amen, but he's going to play so much defense that he can't also be the PG.

Reed is a ways away from Fred. 

Not sure how I'd feel about a short term KD trade, but he would certainly make a difference.

If that was the price for KD, fucking kill me.

 the suns are going nowhere fast this year and the rockets have their pick.  it could legitimately be a top 10 pick.  maybe the rockets trade for KD on draft night and include that pick as part of the package?

need to beat the warriors (another team going nowhere fast) tonight and close out the first "half" with a sense of momentum after that 6 game slide.  only 28 games left to go in the regular season and the Rockets have a legit shot at 50 wins and a top 4 seed.  we'd have all been ecstatic with that before the season.  especially if we had known they'd do it without making any major moves and it was primarily due to this young core we've drafted and developed.

Amen had a triple double tonight.
