    Cannot wait until the Cooper Flaggs, Ace Baileys, the Dybantsas, Boozers......the Real Numero Unos blow this out of the water.

    It is like circle jerking around small town celebrities when you have the big boys coming in. Never have seen the whole world.

    It's the Rockets' (assuming the current Rockets) numero uno. Not any numero uno.

    And it wouldn't be Jalen if he made it easy for us to call him that.

    Mathloom also squeezed in all his Chapters, the reason for those thread pages.

    Awaiting his Jalen Book now that Olajuwon book is out.

    I'd rather have one thread per player than 5, 6 threads talking about the same guy. @vince thinks the tongue-in-cheek "franchise player" thread titles are annoying. Well, how about just a boring "{Official} Player X thread"?

    The squiggly brackets would signify "boring" everybody could understand.

    There used to be threads that were, “all encompassing regarding player X.” I liked those style of threads, it kept the board looking clean and engaging. Those usually would have a plethora of information regarding said player.

    I suggest making a lone thread for franchise player talk, I’m sure that thread would be cohesive and fun to read; especially when pondering who will take the mantel as the face of the franchise. The dialogue would be intense and heated.

    But the cool thing is I checked earlier today and there were only 4 franchise player x threads.

    I like the idea of a "Who is the Rockets franchise player?" thread and let all the player-only-fans slug it out in there.

    This thread had been forgotten since Jalen Green became the Rockets' Numero Uno.

    It was far more accurate, he was never the franchise player, but he certainly was the numero uno traded. Only fair that thread got all the glory.

    Green had a great debut with the Suns tonight. 29 points +30. Phoenix looks dangerous with both him and Booker in the lineup.

    This is a very bad Clippers team when healthy, tonight they did not have Harden or Kawhi.

    I'd still take Avdija, Jrue and Duop....maybe throw in Hansen as a gimmick.
