    KPJ could also try to find him more often, he's been open quite a lot this game.

    I don't care tho, JG is having a bad game. I don't blame KPJ. However, if KPJ would try to get him going, there were opportunities to do so

    I’ve noticed the Raptors and Nick Nurse always double and press Green and play physical as hell against him. Ever since those early pre-season games. Honestly think it’s to make sure he doesn’t outshine Barnes.

    JC stepping up big. Let him start over Gary for the last game. He has definitely earned it.

    Rocket up by 10 with Jalen only having 6 points is impressive all the other rookies are playing well.

    And KPJ outplaying him.

    KPJ is best player on floor tonight, for either team.

    And Rockets winning by double digits.

    Stone needs to get on the Batphone and remind Silas the goal is not to win this game.

    Its good for Green to have games like this. It will remind him how much he has to do if he actually wants to be great.

    That's what I think to. They really throw the kitchen sink at him. This isn't the first time either

    Green was due for a down game but it's no worries, he's done enough recently to earn a down game.

    I'm sure the cult will double down on the KPJ hate as a result.

    He still has more points than Barnes. 6-4

    Edit: Barnes just hit a shot

    You can see Nick Nurse game planned against Jalen. He had the defense instantly double Jalen whenever he has the ball. The thing is Nurse didn’t expect our other rookies and KPJ to go off

    Jalen is still a +11

    Raptors put all eyes on Green so the rest of the young Rockets are feasting.

    Love it!!!

    Oy vey.

    Why pass ball to player that's doubled.

    And if Raptors want to double team a player without ball, more power to their dumb aces.

    When you play 4 first round picks and the worst one on the floor is Jalen Green and you go into the 4th up 10 points it must be a good night.
