    After tonight he is shooting

    46% FG
    53% 3pt

    In a very small sample size.

    Josh Christopher + G. Mathews > Kevin Porter Jr + Jalen Green.

    Christopher and Mathews should start.

    KPJ and Jalen Green --------> bench or assign to G League

    I know I wanted him bad. I said he could be Jalen Green insurance and has Donovan Mitchell potential

    Josh Christopher is the future of the Houston Rockets. Build around him.

    If you can afford it, you could potentially build around 2-3 players. This notion of one and only has been outdated.

    But why would you want to build around 2-3 players when you have Josh Christopher?

    Why go out for hamburgers when you have a GOAT at home?

    He won us the game last night for sure. Will take EGO's spot when/if he gets traded.

    According to ESPN Stats and Info, Rockets are UNDEFEATED when Christopher shoots 100% on at least 7 field goal attempts.

    I'm ready to see JC taking Gordo's starting spot.

    KPJ
    Jaygup
    Mathews
    Tate
    Wood

    With EGo 1st off the bench.

    Paired with Sengun, KJ, Brooks, Augustin.

    HOUnds 2nd unit would still be nasty on defense + more offensive fire power.

    Perfect balance of offense and defense for BOTH units.

    Nwaba and Garuba can cycle in as necessary due to injury/load management.

    Wall, House and Theis need to be traded.

    There’s a lot to like about this guy. I’m interested in seeing how well he can create his own shot. His size and motor are great.
