    he's more controlled and balance.

    not too fast for his own good. he's actually keeping up with the ball or the ball is actually keeping up with him whichever works.

    Jalen playing a balanced and controlled game. He looks impressive so far tonight.

    Rockets defense is playing pretty well. That one possession with Lamelo that ended up with a foul was funny to me, they made Charlotte work like hell just to get him the ball you love to see it.

    I know everyone wants to pile on Jabari but he's working his tail off on defense, that last play covered Lamelo, shut off a drive, then ran across the court trying to contest a shot. That's why he plays.

    The only time you seem to notice jabari is when someone blows by him for a layup or he misses a wide open 3.

    I think it's more that he's balanced. He looks wayyy more in control of his body and athleticism, so when he does go fast he looks even faster. He's been one of the absolute fastest in the league since he was drafted, we just see it more now.

    No way. Jabari shows no flashes. U can count how many games he’s had. Bari played at Auburn, he learned what coaching was about. Huge diff.

    Jalen basically was a high school player.

    I hate to say it but jabari may need to come off the bench. In theory you lose some shooting, but in reality it doesnt look like thats the case.

    Maybe off the bench he can be more involved and that may get him going.
