    No KPJ. I bet they are going to try Green as a full time lead guard for one game. They did it for almost the entire second half last game.

    Might as well end it in a win, we already opened ourselves to potentially getting the 7th seed with last game win.

    I predict a win. Silas throws the middle finger to Ferntits, we pick #7 in the draft. We end up signing Ego and C.Wood to max contracts, try to tank but end up going 8-10 the last 10 games of the season.

    We love picking up detrimental wins against tanking teams in the final month of a 3-year shitshow. W coming up.

    LOL, you say that as if that wasn't something they were doing almost all season long....

    The guy that led the team in usage and shot attempts is finally going to get the ball!!!

    It might be the final Rockets game for some players/coaches/Gm/announcers.

    Usual suspects : KPJ,Nix,Kaminsky,Sengun,Silas,Lucas,Hollins,Batiste,Stone, the other Hollins.

    Interesting times.

    Usage doesn't tell you much about how much someone has the ball in their hands. It just is the percentage of plays that end with a player doing something whether it's a bucket, assist, turnover, missed shot etc.

    Look at time of possession per game

    Let’s get another pointless win to ruin our pick some more!

    Green averages 66 touches a game, that's a ton for a young player with a questionable handle that isn't much of a playmaker. They've been force feeding him the ball all season long....and KPJ was out for 20+ games....Green has been "lead guard" a lot, he's just not any good at it right now.

    Looking at time of possession merely tells you their style, their pace. Your kid Jalen has the ball all the time, always has.
