The Rockets beat Cleveland twice and the Celtics once with Amen starting. The starting lineup has defensive concerns, but getting Amen, Sengun, and FVV to work is the best chance the Rockets have for this season and the next 2.
Quite ironic that green was sht on by the jaters for his rookie performance bc some folks were hyping him up to b the next kobe meanwhile same folks who were hyping sheppard up are jumping thorough many mental hoops to defend reeds awful or lack of performance. Man's rookie season to me so far is the worst out of the lottery picks we had out of the 4. U know it's bad when we have reed defenders praising him for scoring 3 fkin measly pts in a game
Alpi spent half his career in Turkey attacking the zone defense. It's normal he should succeed against it in the US, where it's not used as much or at as high a level.
Cannot disagree with notion that Reed rook season has been disappointing but you are comparing apples to oranges. Jalen was a starter his rookie season + his leash was non-existent, the Rockets were not competing for playoffs, true development mode. Biggest difference is coaching, Silas vs Stone, as well as roster talent/depth.
