I love talking about the Houston Rockets 🚀 and everything science. Polymer Chemist 👨🏾‍🔬. H Town 🤘🏾
If you’re wondering how the #rockets season is going, this clip of Tari Eason and Amen Thompson encapsulates it all in this one possession

It’s over Jalen FC, we might just have to take the L and keep it pushing

This is something I posted about on the old place.

Jalen Green's poor shooting this season is 100% due to the mid-range. Last night was another example. Here are his shooting stats by zone:

At the rim: 6/10
3P range: 3/8
Mid-range: 0/6

The #Rockets played elite defense against Giannis last night. He scored 20 pts, his lowest while playing 35+ mins in a game for 3 years. He had only 4 assists and 8(!) turnovers. Check the video highlights. They walled him off, were physical and straight up stole his lunch money youtu.be/RCRAcLzjt9Q

Liked the out of bounds play from Ime here, but I think I would have went with Amen there as the inbounder instead of Fred (smallest guy on the court). A more athletic big definitely would have caught that pass though
Sengun's lack of bounce/mobility really hurt him twice down the stretch tonight. Got blocked by Antetokounmpo on a flat-footed push shot & then wasn't able to catch the inbounds pass when he would have had a wide open layup.

THIS is #rockets basketball! Sengun DHO to Jalen Green at the of the key into a JG floater. This should be the staple of the Houston Rockets offense

This Bulls defense is absolutely horrid

Amen Thompson in the open floor is must watch hoops

Sengun/Jalen/Dillon all off to good starts but we gotta start defending and making these free throws if we wanna win this game

Tari Eason’s first possession last game vs the Los Angeles Clippers

Immediate defensive impact lol

I knew Houston would be a top defensive team, but top 3 was not on my bingo card at all. The re-addition of Tari and the continued growth of Amen has really been the deciding factor in our 9-4 start

It’s disgusting how normalized and celebrated anti-intellectualism has become, people used to be proud of gaining knowledge and being regarded as smart

Rockets twitter is so divisive man. Instead of people being happy that we’re currently the 3rd seed in the west, they’d rather focus on who’s playing bad that game and harassing anybody that supports said player.

Really might have to make the full time switch over to this site

Desperately need him in Houston man, we’re missing an all star caliber piece
De’Aaron Fox has generated 147 points (PTS + AST) his last 2 games
November 17, 2024 at 5:26 PM
James Harden warped our brains as rockets fans. We expect our best guys to put up 30/8/8 every single game, and expect one of our guys to be in MVP contention. That would obviously be nice, but this is prob one of the most balanced teams in the league. Any of our guys can go off on any night
November 16, 2024 at 4:24 PM
Jalen Green is making my basketball knowledge look questionable man
November 16, 2024 at 1:48 AM
Tari comes in and immediately gets a block lol
November 16, 2024 at 1:26 AM
This in season tourney court nice as hell

It’ll take me a while to rebuild the platform I had on twitter, but bluesky, just based on the one day I’ve been on here, is already infinitely better as a social platform
November 15, 2024 at 11:54 PM
As Harden looks to surpass Ray Allen for 2nd all time in 3 pointers made, I’ll forever stand on this, but the Rockets/Ime made a huge mistake signing Fred VanVleet over James Harden

Jalen I need you to lock in today bro I can’t keep defending you on twitter like this 😭😭 #rockets

So refreshing seeing actual real science on the timeline again lol
