    Ime holding the guards to higher defensive standard is going to be the biggest improvement. Playing the right way

    I think it would take Green to get Brown

    IF we could get Brown for Sengun, it is a no brainer. I just can't see Boston being ok with that...

    Really???
    There are so-called fans online openly hoping the Rockets get a lesser pick just to accommodate Sengun.
    What they are unwittingly saying is they fear Sengun wouldn't be able to compete for minutes if the Rockets land Wemby.

    That's about a weird as fandom can get.

    One thing to add to those who says it’s just hate with Sengun.. y’all acting like I want him cut or something. When it comes to landing a guy like JB, get his ass outta here! I’m not out here saying trade him for a bum or a srp

    That’s weird!! Some fans don’t want Wemby bc of Sengun. Many on here were only happy with games that Sengun played well in

    Wemby, Alp and Jabari would be a helluva 3/4/5.

    Let's be real we ain't getting Wemby. It's just 14%. About 1/8.

    what can I say, it’s the young bucket getters that are putting the team on their back these days for the most part

    Sabonis down in Sacramento is cool and has played ok these playoffs, but Fox is literally carrying the team…Edwards can not be stopped in the playoffs, and he’s only 21

    Booker averaged 30 in his 1st ever playoff series and 28 in the finals at age 24

    I had some people telling me Sabonis is a franchise player…nah, the real franchise player is Fox

    Jalen Green has De’Arron Fox speed and is already getting to the line 6 times a game while built like asparagus and playing for a trash team with the worst spacing in the league…he just needs to continue to improve his jumper and decision making

    Honestly both, at this point we don’t have any untouchables so neither guy is necessarily safe. But it will all depend on how the draft falls, if we get the first pick and draft Wemby then Sengün’s likely gone, if we get second or third and Scoot or Miller falls to us then I think it’ll likely be Jalen

    No way I’m trading Green under almost any circumstance. Ime will unlock his potential.

    Here’s the bigger question — would you include our top pick if it’s outside the top 3 or so? Because that might be what it takes if Brown agreed to an extension with us.

    Scoot is compatible with Green and Green isn't going to be traded because we got Brandon Miller.

    Facts! Sengun fans kept trying to say Sabonis is the best player. Like mf please, Fox is clearly the man in Sacramento

    Sengun would be the obvious choice, especially with the new hire.

    I agree they’re compatible, I just think that Green is who we would likely trade for Brown if we miss out on Wemby. Sengün has his flaws on defense, but he’s still a one of the best young big men in the league, so I wouldn’t trade him unless I’m getting an upgrade. Plus we have KJ Martin (if we don’t decide to trade him) and Eason who I think will be even better next season who can step in at the 3

    I say we trade him if we draft Miller because if we trade for Brown then where will Jalen play? I don’t want him at PG and I’m not sure if he’d be willing to come off of the bench. Maybe you can move Miller to PF or to the bench but then what do you do with Jabari?

    It all depends on what pick we get. Outside of top 3 trade it and the LAC pick and the BKN picks, KPJ, Tate, KMJ, Jaygup, Garuba etc. and you try and keep Sengun.

    If we get say top 2 then maybe you have to give up Sengun.

    You don’t trade Green he could end up better than Brown.

    Boston is not trading Brown. Let it go.

    Have no fear. I am from the future. Rockets draft Wemby.

    Right now Green isn't even a net positive player, if you can get a sure bet in Brown, you take the upgrade and don't look back.
