Rockets Head Coach Ime Udoka joins The Matt Thomas Show to recap his back-to-back wins against the Sacramento Kings, saying "I liked our aggressiveness." With multiple players scoring, "it's a luxury to be balanced" and "guys are playing extremely unselfish," Udoka said.
As Rockets get set to take on the Los Angeles Lakers Wednesday night, Udoka acknowledges that he is putting players on tough matchups, especially with the history between Dillon Brooks and LeBron James, but Udoka encourages Brooks' mentality.
With Udoka previously saying that Tari Eason "looks like he is going to play [in the] 15 minute range," he confirmed this by saying "I'm excited to get [Eason] back out there."
Udoka touched on their decision to move Cam Whitmore to the G League, saying "it's part of the plan to get him where we want him to be."
Udoka wraps up the conversation by recalling his battles with LeBron back when he was a player, and the contrast between guarding him and coaching against him.
