    We need to keep a longer rotation. Everything you say is dumb

    Terrible analysis, blatantly wrong stats, and extremely simplistic conclusions based on data with little or no correlation to performance, such as telling a guy shooting 58% from 3 point land to shoot LESS often.

    Are you the real SAS?

    Hey everybody let’s hate on the guy dropping 20+ a game with good FG% and literally keeping rockets afloat

    How about some gratefulness, we got this guy for nothing and no one quiete expected him to play like this

    F the GARM sometimes. it's so negative for no reason. Gerald Green is really helping us since he joined the team, who cares if he's streaky and dumb sometimes. We literally picked him up sitting on the couch for nothing

    Enlighten me on what Green's percentage has been.

    Also, enlighten me how Greens current percentage compares to Gordons percentage when you apparently found it acceptable for Gordon to shoot 8-10 three's a game coming OFFFF THEE BEENNCCHH because his percentage was so good?

    Yeah, that's right! Gordon's been up and down all year and his average isn't great. I am all for Green taking twice as many 3's as Gordon for now.

    Gordon has been played differently this year than last year imo, same as Anderson, defenders try really hard to push them out of the 3 point shot. I feel like Gordon has been throwing shots from way beyond the three point line a lot more. That said it has opened up the drive for Gordon because defenders bite hard at his pump fakes.

    too bad Anderson can't drive to save his life

    I don't understand how he shoots it before even getting the ball. They pass him the ball with 15 on the shot clock and y'alls boy finds a way to score it with 16 on the shot clock.

    OK, he has 23 of 46 made 3PT shots in a 4 game streak. How many players do you think have made more than 23 at a higher percentage in a 4 game streak?

    Harden had a 4 game stretch earlier this season making 25 out of 47 from deep

    I noticed EG doesn't like to involve Green in the offense. Like he'd rather do it himself than passing to Green even if he's open.

    Anyone else notice this in the Bulls game?

    I don't think it's purposeful. I think sometimes Gordon just does that. But ya I saw that

    That is my biggest complaint with Gordon since last year. There are often guys wide open he doesn't see, because he gets zoned in on doing it himself, even if it means forcing a shot when someone else had a better look. Drives me crazy!

    He's a pure scorer. That's what he does, sometimes to the detriment of the team. Not everyone has eyes like Harden or CP3.

    Eh... I'd rather Ego not pass that often. He's not a bad passer, but when he is passing, he tries to force the issue a lot of times. Problem is, he doesn't have Harden or CP3's vision.
