Our two heroes, our first two options both dribbled a little and passed the ball with 30 seconds to go. Alpi tried to make something happen fast. It didn't work.
I do hope this won't b an entire season of sengun bashing/defending. Sengun should b starter if he can put up that type of performance against Adam's, I'm quite confident he can hang with the starting centers. He might have off days but remind yourself he's only 20
Maybe, but still was enough time on the clock to drive and kick back out. They're young and will make these type of mistakes. Part of the learning process is learning how to close out games. I do agree that Jalen should have kept the ball and called for a pick. He has to be more assertive in his second year. Was willing to give him a pass as a rookie but if he is the primary scorer then he needs to step up and take that role in crunch time.
See the problem is yes he/she may be only defending sengun but that's bc he is the one getting anti threads. This was the case last year with green when those defending him were being called green only fans. I just don't see how you can proclaim to be a Rockets fan and bash the players so soon in their careers. Now I am not saying any that does that is not a Rockets fan, that is more of a personal opinion for myself. I bet when (it's not if) the anti Jabari sentiment starts coming around, most of the same folks defending sengun will defend him. We are just trying to look out for our young players
yes but never forget the management r****ded his development by playing theis and other vet scrubs instead of sengun... he missed the entire year of playing in a proper role and proper minutes...6 minutes a night or 12 minutes a night in spurts of 4 x 3 is not experience or development... sengun should have already played an entire year of nba having the ball in his hands as full time PG it will take 7 decades for this management to win the championship @J.R. these guys kept sengun on the bench in order to keep theises body warm for the bostons playoffs run and they werent even able to extract a 2nd rounder for it...morans
This also makes no sense. When you watched Victor play what makes you think he should be a center? Wouldn't he be an ideal 3 or 4 next to Sengun with the shooting ability he has. He looks more like KD than anything I've ever seen and KD has never dreamt of playing center. I think if you ask Victor to bulk up too much he will have foot problems. Just cuz he's tall doesn't mean he should be our center.
To the ppl saying he had a great game. Did you NOT see him getting cooked by Ja repeatedly? Sengun is a HUGE liability on defense
