28 points from the other 8 players who logged minutes.. the better players on the roster are victims of a poorly built team.. I mean the Sengun/KD pnr is damn near unstoppable until you realize aside from Amen cutting .. the natural advantages that action creates are neutralized by poor shooting/decision making. It’s like having a Corvette engine in a Toyota Corolla body lol..
Kenyon Martin on Kevin Durant comments about him saying he’s got to get out the way and get in the corner:
“I’m going to do you a favor KD, I’m going to finish the sentence for you. You need to go ask Ime Udoka. They need to go ask the coach, I’ll finish it since you can’t say it, I’ll finish it for you. Go ask Ime why they got me in this situation constantly throughout the season. Go ask him why we don’t have no plays.”

I want to point out this play because without it, KD doesn't get the chance to hit the go-ahead bucket, and the Rockets lose. Probably one of the biggest 3s of the season, considering how tight the standings are right now.
"I dont think he's[FVV] is going to be that guy anymore, so, no I do not think he can start...I do not think Fred is the answer..."

Stephen A Smith reacts to Kevin Durant saying its a shot at black Americans on the difference between USA vs Europeans style of game:
“Ladies and Gentleman, I’m here to tell you I’m 10 toes down on this with Kevin Durant. He’s a thousand % right and we can sit up there and we can talk about it any way we want to. But what we not going to do is we not going to run from the subject matter. Kevin Durant is absolutely right”

Kevin Durant on the narrative that the world is catching up to Team USA:
“All I hear is, 'AAU is destroying the game, the Euros do it right’, while the Americans do it wrong. It's a lot of bulls**t with that. I can read between the lines on that; it's a shot at Black Americans. We're controlling the sport; they're tired of us controlling the sport. France is coming for you.' Really? We smacked them boys.”

They were never gonna have minutes for a No. 10 pick. Jalen Green is a bad contract. Hate losing what Brooks brought to the culture, but if FVV hadn’t gotten hurt the Rockets would be contenders and these questions wouldn’t get asked. Still a very good trade.
