    We sorely need Jabari or Chet. Sengun's also got to get quicker on his feet.

    I still don't know how I feel about KPJ as a starting PG for next year.

    The best losses are the competitive ones that end with "Refs, you suck!" chants. Watching the games from afar, I'm living vicariously thru those chants. Keep them coming!

    The highlight of this man's career is getting punked by Houston in a genteman's sweep a few years ago.

    The look of a man who knows he's going to get pegged by his girlfriend later that night

    someone just needs to tell KPJ all he needs to do is pass. He tries to do so much when he doesn't have to.

    Edwards is def gonna be a perennial all star but he’s so much more robotic than green.

    jalen is more fluid and smooth on offense. Also has a prettier shot.

    will be interesting to see how their careers develop.

    Yup. I've noticed that non Rocket NBA fans absolutely love watching Green. He has one of the prettiest games in the league with the way he moves.

    Watching Nix run the second unit vs. KPJ was almost night and day. KPJ has a future in the league, hell, he probably has a future in this team! But it’s not at PG. We gave it a season, collected a large enough sample size and the conclusion is clear.

    He doesn’t even make simple reads like swinging the ball to an open man (Jalen Green, who has been playing organized basketball for much less time already does this pretty well) and he needs to dribble the ball all the damn time. KPJ is more a Jamal Crawford with defensive upside than a offensive-minded lead guard. And that’s ok, Jamal Crawford was a borderline all-star level player and KPJ has the potential to be even better. But he isn’t our point guard of the future. Maybe our small forward or something, though.

    How we feeling about Christopher? In our starting lineup in the future as a core piece? 6 man? Trade piece?

    context

    jalen green had 32 but was a -7 and lost

    harden had a 21 point triple double was a +3 and won...

    i dont hate jalen green, i actually like that rockets fans are respecting him and treating him like a true franchise player. It means you learned from the "trade james harden" and "ive grown to hate james frauden" threads

    Credit to Silas tonight, him standing up for his rookies during that horrible officiating stretch is really important in ensuring the kids know the coach has their backs.

    Not really sure what the refs were thinking on the offensive foul call on Sengun, and then the subsequent no-call for Green.
