    Wood has 1 less assist than Green.

    And Green is a guard.

    if Jalen was able to play more with real players like Sengun and JC his +/- wouldn't be so terrible

    One thing that can expedite the process is for him to get beefier. He’s constantly getting bumped when he drives, he looses all his speed and elevation because of that and just proceeds to get blocked. Strengh training can alleviate some of that.

    71 points from their PF, C and back up PF. Granted, Vale got his points when the Turk wasn't in there.
    I wanted the win when they're up 11 but Chet happens.

    I'm not so sure, it seems like every night his is the worst on the team. Kind of no matter who is stuck on the court next to him is dragged down. He's one of the best tank commanders I've ever seen.

    Tough to watch. Not a single player that really gives u much hope to build around. We are at square one still. We missed our opportunity to get that franchise building block when we passed on Mobley for Green.

    I have a date with Destiny…but instead of an NBA player my Destiny is a stripper.

    Might have hitched my pole to the wrong star here

    Jalen needs development. That's no lie. He struggles with his consistency on just about everything.

    okay well i won't change our mind. there will come a day when Silas will be forced to play Sengun, JC and Jalen together and will have to run offense through them. shrug*

    For sure.

    He's just a super raw rookie that probably should have been picked in the teens rather than #2 but G league hype from talking heads got the Rockets to reach. As a result, he's bad enough right now to tank the entire team which will lead to another top pick.

    In a perfect world, he learns how to play basketball in a few years and will be a contributor to a team led by whoever we pick in the next draft.

    Sucking right now isn't necessarily the worst thing in the world.
