I think KJM is going to be traded to the Nets for Claxton who will become our backup center. Before Gordon trade: Starters: KPJ Green Gordon Jabari Sengun In rotation: Nix JC Eason Garuba Tate Claxton Garbage Time/RGV Matthews Ty Ty Nwaba Queen All Dallas guys bought out or shipped Lamb gone After Gordon trade: KPJ Green Tate (Eason is going to get the Sengun treatment) Jabari Sengun Nix JC Eason Garuba Claxton Same garbage time. Really hope we can make some 3 for 1 trades or salary dumps somehow especially Gordon and Tate.
Rockets better trade for Tybull Gordon / Josh for Tybulel or Gordon / future pick for Tybulle Starting lineup would be Sengun Smith Tybulle Green KPJ And go all in for a play in push!
Whats wrong with Eason starting? Eason upside is much higher. Give him as many mins as possible. Not winning this year anyway so let the kids run the show
I think most likely it'll be KPJ Green Tate Jabari Sengun But I'm hoping by the end of the season it's KPJ Green Eason Jabari Sengun
KPJ / Christopher / Nix Green / Gordon / Mathews Tate / KJ / Eason Jabari / ??? Sengun / ??? Not sure who they're going to keep from the Wood trade, but seems like we should keep at least one of Boban or Chriss to have a warm body to play the 4/5. I'd rather just keep one of those guys and let them expire next season than do some Theiss-like signing. I'm sure there will probably be some small ball shifts with Gordon/Matthews maybe playing some SF and Tate/KJ/Eason playing some occasional 4. But man, I really like that starting 5. Thinking TyTy gets some time at RGV. I hope Eason has a progression to get more minutes as the season goes on, but the only way I see him starting is if Tate gets traded. Tate is just too solid.
I'd restructure that a bit KPJ/Nix/Titty Green/Christopher Tate/Eason/Mathews Smith/Garuba Sengun/Boban or FA C
KPJ/Nix/(TyTy in g league) Green/Jgup/ Matthews Whoever isn't traded between Tate & KJ/ Smith Smith/Eason/Garuba Sengun/Garuba
Porter-TyTy-Nix Green-Christopher Tate-Matthews-Nwaba Jabari-Eason-Garuba Sengun-Boban And hopefully a center signing.
No. 1 Priority is still developing Jalen Green. Having other players be in the right position will help Green. Also, Green plays better with space. I think Eason is going to overhaul his shot to give defenders less time to contest.
I’m not saying this is Day 1, but I get excited about this: C Sengun 6’10” Point Center PF Jabari 6’10” can guard 1-5 SF Eason 6’8” can guard 1-5 SG Jalen 6’5” can score at will PG KPJ 6’5” can score at will
Offensive Lineup: KPJ Green EG Smith Sengun Defensive Lineup: Gordon Tate Eason Smith Garuba Notice only EG and Smith made both list. That's why I don't mind keeping EG, he's one of the rare 2-way player we have besides Smith
19 players under contract for the upcoming season. I wouldn't be surprised to see the players with unguaranteed money (Garrison Matthews) being waived before Tilman pays people to walk away.
First Off Get rid of GORDON, GARUBA, NEWBA, WALL. The owner might have to pay of Walll and Gordon before the start of the season STARTERS C Free Agent Center PF SMITH SF EASON SG GREEN PG PORTER BACK UP PLAYERS C SENGUN PF MARTIN SF CHRISTOPHER SG QUEEN PG NIX EXTRA PLAYERS MATTHEWS LAMB WASHINGTON TATE FERNANDO SENGUN so far has not shown he is capable to play a starting CENTER, possibly he might have improved a whole bunch during the off season, WE will just have to wait and see!

[PG] (1) KPJ (2) Nix (3) Washington [SG] (1) Green (2) Christopher (3) Queen [SF] (1) Tate (2) Martin (3) Mathews [PF] (1) Smith (2) Garuba (3) Eason [C] (1) Sengun (2) Fernando (3) Marjanovic
Alp has absolutely shown he’s capable of playing big minutes and being a key contributor. Stop with that nonsense
