Unpopular opinion: I don't think Green played that well tonight. I know he got his 30, but he's had better games than this.
Love that Jalen kept his streak going. Also he was the only Rocket not to have a negative +/- (he was 0).
His handles and strength got a bit exposed tonight. Kyrie picked his pocket at least twice, and Bruce Brown just pushed him out of his cuts so he couldn't even get the ball on the perimeter. Even Claxton shut down his driving lane a couple of times and forced him to pass it back to KPJ Despite all of that he still dropped 30 which is quite impressive for a rook
I disagree. He shot well - didn't think he had a particularly great game. Almost no rebounds (very unusual for him) Almost no real assists, just some 4th quarter passes around the perimeter. He did score well tho which is why I want him at the 3. If he was playing the 3 and put up those stats I'd love it. But as a PG he didn't play well imo.
I think that's accurate I don't have any stats on this so this is just my eye test but it felt like he had the ball less this game than the last games. He did get enough shots but I feel like he didn't touch it as much. I think he's a rhythm player that needs the ball a lot and when he isn't getting it that much, the times he will get it, it won't look as good
