    Big year for several young Rox. Time to put up or shut up. Myself, I'm optimistic mostly because I trust Ime to recognize early if our young player group will make the jump or not. If not, I trust him to move on quickly.

    This kid is extremely savvy with media. All the right cliches and talking points, doesn’t ever get rattled or off-script.

    None of that matters if he can’t enunciate

    Jalen could be Shakespeare or Obama, we’d never know with that jar of peanut butter in his mouth

    Yeah, true, I can see how that can turn some people off. It's a bit like foreign accent, some people cant get over foreign accents...

    Honestly it's not bad. Sochan is probably one of the worst

    It ain't an accent, is more like a speech impairment, but a very minor one.

    Accent is just another version of something......but there is nothing wrong if the accent can be understood.

    Idk I can understand Green perfectly fine.

    He mumbles but I’ve heard a lot worse

    Don’t say “we.” I can understand each word just fine. Perhaps get your hearing checked?

    Udoka is soft-spoken as well, yet you rarely hear people complain about how he speaks.

    Depending on Rockets record and his efficiency. If Rockets exceed expectations and Jalen is the leading scorer with improved efficiency he would be in the convo

    He mumbles, but he's not hard to understand

    I've been really impressed with Jalen Green's summer training philosophy. It seems like he just trains with everyone and tries to take every bit of info and applies it as much as he can. Seems like he finds a way to train with some of the best guys in the business. I think his time with Team USA was also great. He looks like he has been working hard this summer and I hope the other guys are doing the same. I think we have at least 4 guys on our squad with the work ethic and physical tools to be to say they are trying to be the GOAT.

    I think Jalen will add about 5-7 pts to his scoring avg. and make the all-star game this year
