    Well he has had two possessions where he attempted to dribble and blew past Banchero to the hoop. Whats your point here? we all knew he wasnt a point forward

    I just want Jabari to get some shots…I don’t even care if he bricks most of them, just get them up

    I’m not here for “letting the game come to me” type play…he keeps that up, the game will be over before it ever comes to him with these selfish guards

    Paulo looks really good. He’s a hooper if put a 1000 bucks on him to win ROTY right now cause his game is tailored to put up points even if it’s poor efficiency and he’s on a magic team that’s going to force him the ball.

    Jabari looks a little discouraged. His defense is as advertised very impressed he’s going to be a positive on that end year one. Offense he just not a Paulo type player so I’m not surprised about his shots that he’s taken more surprised he isn’t even touching the ball on 60% of the possessions.

    hope they make an effort to try and get him the ball even if it’s just him in some actions and he’s passing the ball. Very disappointed that out 3rd pick is not even touching the ball on almost half if not more of our possessions. Want to see him try and create even if he misses. I loved his first bucket and like his attempt when he got blocked and when he tried the turnaround jumper. I want to see more of that it’s summer league and he’s out main guy.

    let him touch it more then just inbounding the ball

    Right, it really is a terrible predictor of success.

    Kris Dunn looked like a superstar in Summerleague and Mobley looked like a bust. It doesn't mean much, it's fun to watch your drafted players with your jersey on, get a teaser of what they can do, but it's really for fringe undrafted guys trying to make a team like Kenny Lofton Jr.

    I know this may not be what people want to hear… But we have to be patient. We need patience with these young guys. Let’s get a full summer league of multiple games and give these young guys Time to develop.

    We need to run plays for Lamb. He is the present and future.

    Lamb has to be TF's love child. His presence alone on the court is an insult to Rocket fans.
