    Those stats are from 10 games of KMJ starting. Mathew’s had 57 and Tate was over 100 starts.

    You are not even trying to make sense anymore.

    But that happens when you **** on KPJ every chance you get.

    Haven’t read the whole thread, but what kind of organization are we when we entertain this kind of behavior. I do agree with Martin’s thoughts but I shouldn’t know them.

    Grasp this concept. Green was very young, playing on a bad team for a bad coach. Under those conditions, struggling early should have been expected with a kid asked to shoulder a big load.

    .... so then why whine about someone pointing out that he was bad when he was bad?

    His defense is terrible. Ship him to GSW with KPJ for Wiseman.

    You over the top spammed the board with your pessimistic opinion. Next time, just give it some time before you excessively kneejerk piss on a player with high expectations.

    Rockets gave him the opportunity on basically a g-league+ team to develop into a journeyman PF. Helicopter sports parents are the worst.

    I'll say it again. This situation is odd to say the least.

    At first I thought that his dad is pushing this, he has connections around the league and wants to steer him to the best position possible to succeed. But then again, the report came from the Athletic, which imo is fed with info from the organization, and it doesn't make much sense that the Rockets leaked this report. Also, KJ is close with all our youngsters, and he trained with Green in Miami at the start of the offseason (maybe they had a falling out and that's why he's not participating in recent workouts and wants out).

    Anyways, I can sort of understand that KJ might be looking to move on. Besides Tate, it looks like We'll be getting one of Eason/Beauchamp/some other 3/4 prospect, and with them plus the 3-guard lineups We'll use, it seems that there isn't much playing time for him. He's shown enough for me to put him ahead of Tate in the rotation, but if We get Eason or a similar prospect, We aren't going to sit them and play KJ.

    I personally like KJ, but he isn't a prospect worth this much drama this early in his career.
    It's just a bit odd reading that a second round sophomore is publicly asking a trade...

    this is why I like the fit with sengun and Paolo and Tate and green . Kpj is a great tough shot maker and flashes some great passing ability .

    ideally .. out offense actually becomes more like what Silas wants and everyone touches the ball .

    No, I didn't.

    "Next time" if a player plays terribly, no matter who they are, I'll say they are playing terribly... and sure, simple minded fans will shine about it and pretend it's not true.... but I'm not going to stop giving honest and accurate opinions simply due to the reaction of blind fanbois.

    His dad complained about PT and tanking(losing) so why not believe him? The other stuff you mentioned has no direct proof like the words from his dad.

    Nook is like a 93 honda civic.

    Nothing too flashy but pretty dang reliable.
