    Green's having positive +/- so far.

    Needs to keep it up, when that 3ball is falling he is special.

    Yeah, maybe a couple fewer points and a couple more boards. On something like 47% from 3.

    And he wasn't forcing anything or trying to be a hero and playing dumb to get empty numbers. Always in the flow of the game, taking what he was given.

    It wasn't garbage time to teams like the Bucks that we played surprisingly competitive games against.

    Our last 12 games were against:

    Denver
    Minnesota
    Milwaukee (x2)
    Golden State
    New York Knicks
    Philadelphia
    Utah
    Portland
    Lakers
    Clippers
    Hawks

    Aside from GSW and Minnesota, these were pretty much the best teams in the league last year and were still fighting for the best possible seeding.

    Imagine if Sengun wasn't playing so terribly. He's looked awful tonight. Still at 0 points with 4 turnovers, 3 fouls and only 2 boards. Does have 3 assists though.

    Feels like Wall and Green have been working on that handle and watching film.

    Isn’t it wild to think that KJs dad was Melos teammate on the nuggets lol. Or that I’m pretty sure green and jaygup probably ran into lebrons kids on the AAU circuit.

    He has been putting in work defensively though. Does look like he’s pressing a bit and not getting the benefit in close calls.

    What’s even wilder is Melo looked as big as poppa Martin when he was in Houston.

    First game I’ve seen him play within the team and not just try to get his

    Once again I don't care about the outcome. I've seen enough and I'm proud.

    It is wild. I knew Kenyon Martin Sr. was fast and could dunk I just don't remember him being able to jump like his son though, Jr got them extra boosters.

    Rockets have to keep running the floor like their hair is on fire, run this senior citizen Lakers team into the dust.

    RUN AND FINISH LIKE MFERS!!!!

    His stats look bad but he was letting his nuts hang in other areas.

    I love green and kpj dynamic here, pass to green, be aggressive in scoring for green, try to get him some threes, that’s how it should be every game. He can avg 15-20 a game easy which would be remarkable for a 19 yo rookie. And then assists are bonus, and then work on your body and defense/steals etc as he matures.
