    ??? When did I attack Jalen? I’ve advocated for both players

    None of this applies to me

    Don’t project other posters **** on me lol.

    Maybe KPJ has regressed because of those around him. He showed real promise last year. Hmmmm let’s think what has changed. He has the worst SG maybe the worst starter in the league next to him (not saying Green won’t be a superstar in a year or two, but right now he sucks. Instead of an offensive minded Olynyk we have Theis. Wood is now a pf on offense, because of Theis. Last year, when playing he was in the right position. Tate looks the same to me. Green should either be coming off the bench as should Theis. KPJ would shine with a lineup of KPJ, Gordan, Tate, Segun, and Wood. Silas showed he was a p***y last year in deferring to Wall. He is the one who has “regressed” the worst.

    If you read my posts even back to pre-draft you would know that I am not a big Green fan, but I do want him to succeed. Un-like a lot of the people on this board, I pull for the Rockets to succeed, not to support a lame internet ego. We can’t change the draft, but fans could raise enough hell to get a coach fired.

    soon it will be *insert player ‘s fault for why KPJr has to mope every other possession and give up/not get back on D

    I wonder who’s fault it is that he shoots 64% from the line? Lemme guess, Silas?

    If Zack Levine, Devin Booker and Donvan Mitchell have true point guards next to them so should KPJ. It's good that he has some play making skills but it should not be his full time job.

    I disagree here. KP bricking 3s and smoking layups is 100% on him alone.

    Same with Greens inability to make shots.

    They both need reps and a couple off seasons together.

    If they don’t make progress as a duo by all star break then the coaching staff needs to be revamped.

    Basketball is a team sport. Teammates and coaching make a difference. Why do you think Harden is gone?

    It's always the worst players that pretty much suck where CF's uses lame excuses that it's someone else's fault rather than acknowledging the real problem. In this case, it's KPJr has just been flat out terrible

    You’re just a KPJ hater, that would rather be right then to see a young man succeed. You only see what you want to see.

    You're telling me of all people that coaching matters LMAO. You're preaching to the choir leader my guy. That being said KPJ's play isnt totally on SIlas but yes part of it is SIlas and its not his teammates fault because HE has the damn ball and makes whatever decisions he wants to with it.

    KP would be a much better player if he stopped with that soft ass wrong footed layup he always bricks lol.

    Regular strong layups and a better free throw percentage and he’d be competent as a scorer at least.

    Both are easy fixes.

    At this point, I would trade everyone not named Sengun. Am I doing the knee-jerk thing right?

    y’all want to gaslight the GARM regarding KPJr, but it’s not gonna work

    most of the guys busy trying to prop up KPJr are doing so because they don’t like Jalen Green…it just looks so ridiculous because KPJr is in his 3rd year and is just as trash as Jalen Green who just passed his 3rd week in the NBA

    Some fans haven't got patience in here, they want results straight away. They want players to be fully developed after 13 games in the NBA system
