    I have zero worries that Green won't put in the work. Regardless of what Silas does or doesn't think I guarantee you Green realizes he needs to get stronger or he's the dumbest person on the planet

    Probably that this team hits the s-fan. Does not develop and gets traded away. If these players just straight suck, and dont really amount to anything. You could see another terrible grizzlies team from mid 90's to 2000's.

    If fear does lead to the darkside, I'm willing to see where it takes us at this point.

    I am on team Green because I have to be. He is obviously getting unearned playing time and at times seems to be pouting when thing don’t go his way, less now than the beginning of the year. I know it’s coaching more than him & he has been placed in a no win situation. His growth is our future. I personally wish our top pick was a more well rounded player, but Green is our guy. Once again his growth is our future.

    It’s all entertaining.

    Go Rockets => go green

    My biggest fear:

    Jalen Green doesn't gain about ten pounds of muscle by next season as
    he matures and grows.

    This dunk is MJ...only quicker...this dunk is Kobe....only faster


    The rest will take care of itself (Silas, J Christopher/Sengun/Garuba/Porter experience)

    Green needs to contact Tim Grover. Helped some of the greatest reach not just the best physical strength of their careers, but mental strength as well.

    my biggest fear is that this young team runs into a rapper and he tells them "ya'll mean?" and they don't know what he means.

    IDK why Silas was being mentioned, the weight of a coach does not matter here.

    It's all tough; Silas has been an awful coach so far(latest example giving 18 min to Schroder for no reason), Stone getting Green and then having to watch everyone at the top of the draft board outperform him so far, management is awful and cheap, it all sucks. They need to hit on these draft picks and I can't say that I trust them with that although Christopher and Sengun are nice

    My biggest fear has already happened. We passed on the best player in the draft; a guy that could have continued the great legacy of Houston big men. A legit 7 footer with rare athleticism and go go gadget arms. A guy who was going to walk into the all defensive team his first year.

    I know folks will say it’s too early to pass judgement, but I’m passing judgement. Green will never be as impactful of a player as Evan Mobley. Kaminga and Giddy also look like they have much higher ceilings than Green.

    I hope Green turns out to be a great player (I’m obviously rooting for him), but I just think we really got it wrong. And if that proves out, it’s devastating for this franchise. We’ve only had 3 picks in the top two in the last 28 years. Dream and Yao …and Green.
