    rockets don't have time for chriss to develop right now.

    rockets in win now mode and hartenstein looks more advanced and more ready to play right now.

    man we have a huge playable rotation this year, and this is without Tucker and Knight.

    last year our garbage squad blows 20 point leads in 2 minutes

    Sure , but I was talking about more on D .

    Hartenstein is getting a lot of help from our passers on O, but he also understands how to be in the right spots .... like that last oop from harden .

    Nah, I'm not with yall. I'm fully ready to have Hartenstein be our back up. I just dont trust Chriss enough.

    It's good to be pushed. It will make him better. Plus he has money incentives in his contract. Hartenstien even Chriss showing flashes, but they still can't guard as well as Clint on the perimeter and they both don't have the hands to catch Harden/CP3 passes like Clint.

    Hartenstein certainly has potential, still needs to get used to the system, looked a bit lost on defense.

    For aome reason I don't see Chriss as a 5. He obviously doesn't have much experience playing Center. In his head he's a wing. But he's probably a 4/5 tweener. It's pretty good to have options.

    Good god Morey is a genius, MCW can really see the floor.

    Hartenstein has good roll instincts but seems a bit lost, overall lots of potential though. Yung DMo.

    Ennis is really good in transition, good athlete with balls. Not afraid to get dirty

    If Chriss can put it all together he could be an Ibaka type 4 in this system.

    Preseason Hot take: Pacers are the third best team in the East, Vic somehow improved and Sabonis is taking the next step.

    Hartenstein and MCW are the bright spots so far tonight. I'll give Chriss a nod because of his rim protection.
