    Green will lead in scoring - it might not be efficient, and nor should it be. His future is as a scorer, and if he is a starter, he may top 20 ppg by Jan just from the volume of shots. They key for Green will be how long it will take for him to become good at drawing fouls.

    If Wood and Porter play selfish basketball, Green won’t get many points when he can’t get the ball.

    This is Clutchfans, @DJ ... where's the "Your Mom" option? At the very least there should be a "Bob Sura" or "Williamson's fav" option for those that don't take polls seriously.

    Everyone has been happy that we got Wood, but what are we doing with our Wood now that we have it? We should use our Wood for good while the big man's in our neighborhood. As far as the CF masses go, I'm not sure that's being understood. Good Wood should always be a major factor in the brotherhood of the Houston greater area neighborhood.

    Wood should he is the most efficient, but will Green and KPJ give him the ball enough?

    As far as offensive talent, Green is light years ahead of him..

    Don't forget D-Mo option (on vet minimum)

    And I prefer "your mother" instead of "your mom"

    has more sting to it

    I think that would be a bigger problem for Wood, not Green.

    Green's now at 14.4, while Wood is at 16.1. Green may make this race interesting going forward.

    The fact that Wood probably is at his peak and Green is probably going to have an improved second half, ya there is a solid chance he might overcome Wood as the lead scorer but hopefully it's no where near as inefficient as he is now.

    Jalen is now at 15.6 ppg, and Wood’s at 16.9. Green’s got a chance!
