    Problem is that Silas lacks the sack to start Green.

    No way he benches both Wall and Porter to start Green.

    Silas kowtows to the vets.

    Very nice find.

    Dream's word is truth in my book but "right now leaning Green" doesn't sound like it's set in Stone.

    And that knowing look between father and son before Dream confirmed was interesting to say the least.

    Nothing is set in stone as of now but Jalen Green is obviously the favorite

    Too much smoke. First the Kelly Iko + Feigen article and now this. I think Green is much more likely to be picked over Mobley at this point.

    A KPJ-Green duo sounds amazing until you remember John Wall.

    Do we play KPJ at the 3?

    I wouldn't mind seeing a draft like this:

    #2 - Jalen Green
    #23 - Tre Mann
    #24 - Alperen Sengun or Jalen Johnson (if he falls far enough)

    But then we'd land Cade. Win win.

    And those are 2 very well known mouthpieces for Rockets.

    If Timmy came out and confirmed this then we know TF is all in on Green.

    Exactly!

    And we all know that Silas obsequiously fawns over Wall.

    Need more defense around Green.

    Those are three offense first players.

    And how many more guards do we need anyway?

    I was being cheeky but no question, it helped Porter's development.

    KPJ played the 3 in Cleveland because of Garland and Sexton so it’s a possibility in the short term. I don’t love this idea because it takes touches and opportunities from the young guys. Wall is still a good player, his fit here on this team is just bad.
