White's been getting on despite looking like the best player on the court for most of the game

nah he was ass the first quarter not sure you were watching... he closed really strong though. I believe he played early second and late second. He really got it going there.

I still on the side of him just needing minutes to get back into rhythm.

[Mr. Body]

White has been playing well, though clearly he's uncertain about his shot. His passing was way off, however. Trying things that clearly weren't there.

[heyheymymy]

Pretty impressive first half

Great to see Eubanks just going monster on his shift.

[raybies]

Rebounds have been a problem tonight apparently. Got outrebounded by like 17 there...

Need more ppl to crash the boards. We'll see if the is a persistent problem.

the only problem was his shot, the rest of his game looked great in the first quarter

[HankChinaski]

1st possesion of the half is a mess. Yak should have planted further down low towards the baseline. Murray waited to long to make his move.

[raybies]

Dam, my man Murray.

[Robz4000]

Rockets gonna get the second pick again tbh.

Nah, I believe he was hesitating as well... he got a lot more comfortable in the second though.

[HankChinaski]

You know McDerms gets that next shot down when he gets that little set skip into place and quick hop an pop for the 3

[Robz4000]

Same here. Gonna come down to health for him imo. If he somehow stays healthy, Murray plays at a high level, and they thrive alongside each other the team can reach a play-in spot.

[heyheymymy]

Lovin this buckets guy. Out there running routes like a WR, great release, and pretty good passing eye

Can't wait for McDMT to hit that hyperspace game where he goes like 5-9 or 6-11 from 3PT

[jbspurs]

I don't know what the Rockets are learning. There's no sets, nothing, they just kind of move around and screen and jack up shots.

A lot to learn especially when your team is playing bad.

[Mr. Body]

Jalen Green already getting superstar calls

[Mr. Body]

I wonder if the Rockets have ever held a practice.

[raybies]

Dam that setup by DJ was very advanced...

[HankChinaski]

Man I wasn't sure if Murray was going to make it across the court to feed that to McDerms there for a second.

[spurs10]

Well good to know we won't be last in the West!

[raybies]

McD could have a career year this year lol.. he gonna have a field day out here...

[HankChinaski]

Vassell should have just used his body for the layup.

[raybies]

Vassell is very noticeable with his D... His team defense is top tier. I still think he tops out as a 3/d maybe slasher role.

[heyheymymy]

McDMT is 4-9 from 3PM tonight! We already in hyperspace lol

Guess I mean more like 8 -10 threes on 40-45% or so

[HankChinaski]

Vassell rushed that shot after going up to save that pass.

[raybies]

The flow of the game seems a lot better this year with the rule changes... doesn't feel like the ball is being stopped every 5 seconds...
