    I'm interested to see the spacing from Porter, Green and Smith. Porter was like 37% for the season and had more than a few nuclear 40+% months. Jabari a 42% sharpshooter. Green, save his awful start, shot high 30s the last 3 months of the year. I think that's close enough to GSW to make the comparison...

    3 elite volume 3 point shooters (high 30s/low 40s %)
    Curry, Thompson, Durant - Green, Porter, Smith
    1 switchblade defender, glue man
    Igoudala - Tate
    1 matchup nightmare big
    Green - Sengun

    Sure, note the differences. The biggest is probably the difference of teenage Sengun and DPOY Green defense. Igoudala's height. Maybe it's not apples to apples but the potential spacing with 3 above average to elite 3 point shooters? Open lanes for driving. Room to work for Sengun. They'll overload and forget about Tate hanging out under the bucket. These guys just gotta learn sharing is caring and this offense will explode.

    I think he'll have a lot more easy buckets/fresh looks from outside. They'll be a better flow w/good spacing. There's a chance he goes Super Saiyan w/o Wood, more Sengun, and with his natural progression...eclipsing these #'s easily. (not IF IMO, but when)

    KPJ can hit 28. I can see him doing something like 18/8/4 for the year. he has efficient shooters around him now, I just hope he doesnt take as many shots this season

    such fond memories. I remember that offseason I was in hollywood and saw ron artest there with him family. knew then he wasn't coming back. sad to see the Yao era end this way.

    but all that has brought us to this point. I've never been this excited for a young Rockets squad. even the year before James when I was too hype on Lamb, Jones, and freaking Royce White... I think that was forced hype after years of tanking. this year is different. the talent level is high, coupled with the youth... gonna be fun!

    Who are these people lol? Looks like random fans who just like the Rockets. That's cool but not much validity in their opinion any more than people here.

    his 3 point shooting especially from spot up improved a lot last year. Glad to see he's hitting the gym again

    My guess is that he ends the season at 15/5/5. Both Smith and Sengun will be looking to take a big bite out of that stats pie and Green will be the primary scorer going into next season.

    Stuff of dreams

    Scoot's catch & shoot 3 was the BEST in entire NBA.

    Top 4 in self generated 3's.
