    Maybe the first time you do it. Now it is just annoying and disrespectful.

    I could see that Clutch's stats came from nba.com. Not sure what the other source is.

    Edit: Found it. RealGM.

    It is just preseason but I missed highlighting stats that makes Sengun look bad so much.

    Jeff Green is clearly better than Jalen Green. ;)

    That’s definitely unacceptable. Clutch is our number one fan, and he really cares about making our team the best.

    Most won't remember Elvin Hayes or Moses Malone (the other MVP the franchise traded away) - Those two were dominant, & Calvin who never saw a shot he didn't like.

    Then there's Ralph, Hakeem & Yao .... even McGrady had some fantastic stretches when he wasn't injured.


    And then there's Harden who was possibly the best offensive basketball player in the history of the league for a 5 year stretch.


    But Jalen ..... 8 games.

    Can we also remind ourselves how old Jalen is? Only 22. That 8 will exponentially increase.

    Clutch is just embarrassing man. It's sad that there isn't any other forum we can share our opinions on this team. We just have to endure this old man and his views.

    I gotta say this is really reactionary and I'm not sure this has anything to do with Sengun except that he's a starter. I've seen similar posts in the past to prop up Sengun's defense (Sengun's defense at center looks great versus small ball centers) or disparage Jabari (Tari has been a much better player so far) by pro-Sengun fans.

    I see this data, and I think FVV is great and the Rockets bench players have outplayed other benches more than the Rockets starters have outplayed the other teams starters. Sengun's Net Rating is up versus last year so I don't see this as a Sengun has been bad. The only thing surprising is that Brooks is up there with the bench players, but he's been hot from 3.

    I don't expect this type of data to favor Adams so heavily in the regular season unless Adams gets his mobility back, but I expect the Rockets bench is going to destroy other teams with FVV on the court. Whether Landale or Adams is backup center, the backup center will likely have a higher Net Rating than Sengun unless the Rockets trade for a superstar or someone makes a huge leap internally (I just don't think the Rockets have as much star power as most teams). Amen and Tari are just too good versus most bench players, but probably, Amen moreso than Tari, provide more value with Sengun off the court. I see Amen and Sengun being used similarly offensively with Sengun succeeding because of strength and footwork while Amen will succeed on speed and agility. Sengun is a better player and as such Amen will get to destroy backups.

    Also, if Adams get his mobility back, he's a starting center quality player. I am very interested to see what Adams at 100% going against small ball centers looks like.
