    Rise up young DJ Wagner. Resemblance to his pops is uncanny.

    Thanks. You must have put in a lot of time on that post.

    I vaguely remember him. I was thinking Dallas Mavs for some reason. You mentioning Cavs
    sparked my memories a tad.

    I remember him. I had no idea about what you quoted though. He likely would have been great without that happening.

    Well, I did briefly scan his wikipedia page to check my facts but I recollected most of that. I was very interested in him back then because of our similar illnesses. I am also fascinated by Alfred the Great because medical historians (yeah, that's a thing) now believe he had crohn's disease. Crazy he fended off the danish for decades and led battles while not being able to eat solid foods for much of it.

    Lol that poster will tell you ok now thats 2 times in 10 games Green has beaten his man where's the 3rd, 4rth 5th...

    The reality is lots of Rockets fans are probably sad about their life so they take it out on the Rox. The same people who are boosting Cade Cunningham are also the ones taking a dump on Jalen when both are playing at par right now.

    Unlike Cade, Barnes and Mobley Green is a legit 19 yr old, he is only 2 mos older than Chet Holmgren and you can make the argument he is a year ahead of his peers and should've been in the 2022 draft.

    I'm still very happy with the pick and apart from Barnes I'd still rather have Green than any other talent in this class, that includes Cade and Mobley.

    I'd say Fultz is more dramatic you got a kid shooting 41% from 3 on 5 attempts in college forget to shoot in 1 summer.

    We're getting the full Jalen Green experience right now, he's statistically the worst player on a 1 win team that has lost their last 10 games straight.....but he had a flashy uncontested dunk the other night, so there's that.

    Ahhh the old troll is back.

    Green came in to the worst situation in the NBA as a 19 year old. Only thing I care about right now is him working on his handle. Kid is fluid and has a good first step. Shot will come with time and he clearly works hard.

    Offseason. They need to get rid of KPJ/Wood for picks(These guys are not the type you win games with). Build around Green, Tate, Sengun, and the future top draft picks. Green needs more touches to develop. He has lower than any of his counter parts. Can't get better without the reps.

    Sengun is even younger and no excuses are needed. Funny how that works, when you have talent, you just play well.

    How about we cut everyone on the roster but Green and not replace them so that he'll be the team's best player and get all the touches?

    The Rockets and Texans is not just bad. Right now they are in a league by themself. 2 years ago they were playoff teams. Only team with desire now is the Northshore Mustangs. Watch them play.

    This will be a complete waste of a season if we’re only getting green 9 shots a game. Not nearly involved enough to develop.

    Getting rid of KPJ would be insane. He is improving each and every game. Only thing holding him back is his coach and teammates that can’t hit wide open 3’s. I have come around to trading Wood as I very frustrated with his sulking and weak ass defense and lack of aggression on either side of the ball.

    No development, no system, and losing. That’s a terrible combination

    Right now I remember, once he had his colon removed it offset his balance.....

    I think my recent colonoscopy experience was better.
