    Rockets have won 4 straight, 2 strong wins against legit teams (Bulls, Hornets).

    Forever is a long time. EGo injury or trade is coming, and until that time I don’t want to see Jalen Green on the floor. I want him in the gym "honing his craft" and when EGo goes out the hope is Jalen will be a positive for the team…

    Jalen is going to do his thing when he gets back. He's going to feast with the open floor and competent shooting around him. Once his own shooting form returns he will be hard to guard. Fun times ahead!

    Agreed, and "his thing" is being a tank commander. He'll instantly make the offense and the defense considerably worse, putting the Rockets back on track for a top 4 pick and hopefully they won't blow this one like they did the last one.

    Let's hope so, it would be much better for the team if Green ends up a quality player one day instead of being the next Corey Brewer.

    The Corey Brewer comparison is crazy.

    Brewer was more of a defender than a scorer.

    Although he did put up some crazy scoring performances from time to time.

    I would say it's not completely perfect, because Brewer was a better defender but slightly less athletic, but it's by no means a "crazy" comparison even if one day Green manages to improve his game where Brewer failed to do so.

    You mean once he "Develops" a good shooting form - he has never been a good shooter.

    It is a dumb comparison but looking at the poster you should expect it. Corey Brewer came into the league at 21 and never showed a single thing in his rookie season that Green has flashed in 19 games. It’s an extremely lazy comparison that doesn’t even make sense.

    The lack of patience by many posters was just head scratching.
