    Fine. Then this game was a fluke. For every one good game he has he’s terrible in 5.

    Let’s just give a player with bad handles who can’t create any separation off the dribble besides a step back, who constantly gets stuffed at the basket the ball more so he can iso more.

    Literally NONE of the plays were run for a Martin corner 3. That is simply what the Jazz were giving up ( and for good reason).
    Unfortunately the Rockets are too young and inexperienced to know how to push back against those defenses, especially with an OJT point guard leading the offense.

    So because it was him coming down the lane at full steam it doesn’t count?

    His natural position would be as a combo guard off the bench.
    That way a team could weaponize natural scorers mentality and utilize him as a tertiary playmaker without the expense of eschewing a natural flowing offensive scheme.

    It would also serve well mentally where he could be "the man" on the second unit that he seems to believe he is already.

    And perhaps more importantly, the team can more effectively minimize the impact of his penchant for quitting when things don't go his way.

    I know you fanboys can be often be slow to come around to the reality about their guy, even where the number of people who see this obvious truth have been growing all season long. But I have faith you'll catch on...eventually.

    Can't feign cluelessness forever, right?

    You are feigning...aren't you?

    You know I am going by memory here but other than the 2 3s he shot, most of his other touches were to swing the ball to kmj bc Rudy was leaving him wide open and guarding the ball on the other side of the court and parking himself in the middle. In those cases with a defender on you and the dpoy candidate in the middle, the best play for even agressive players is to pass to the guy who is wide open and had hit a free 3s . I know what you are saying about him needing to be agressive but I think he made good decisions

    Lol, why bring the best guard on the team off the bench?

    Sorry guy but you are way too transparent.

    I think it'll be hilarious next year when the insane fans from the next top draft pick interact with the cult of Green. I hope they are every bit as delusional too so Green cultists will get a taste of their own BS
