Edit- "I thought we competed, but the biggest thing for us, our defense," Vasquez said. "We are a team that defends and the second quarter and the last quarter, we gave up 20 points and 30 points. We can't really trade buckets with them, we are not that good. It's really tough to win because we really aren't that talented as other teams."

No problem with what he said.

Talent alone doesn't win, that's what he's getting at.

No I know that one. But last year around this time someone on the team said something similar.

Team makes too many errors at crucial moments. Last night we cut it to one and Roberts comes off a screen and never even looked for ball for some reason.
Next time down aminu airballs it
Next time amniu in baseline play throws it to no one (not sue if someone didn't break to be safety valve Or amniu panicked)
Next time dribble till 2 left panic pass to aminu and has to force up long shot


All the rockets needed

We do that every time we get close.

Hopefully eventually learn from it

The key parts of all of that are:

Roberts


and

aminu


Unfortunately, that all goes back to Gravy's statement. As long as we have guys like that getting 4th quarter minutes, we will struggle.

Thankfully, this is what we'll probably be looking at heading into free agency:

Eric Gordon $14,283,844
Ryan Anderson $8,308,500
Anthony Davis $5,375,760
Robin Lopez $5,119,761
Jason Smith $2,500,000
Austin Rivers $2,339,040
Greivis Vasquez $2,150,188
$40,077,093

I don't see us bringing Roberts back next year with actual cap space to sign legit players. Miller is a slight possibility, but non-guaranteed at $788,872 next year, so I cut him out.

Nobody is hating on Roberts. Just calling it likes I sees it.
