Can Ime tell Jalen to look for mid-range shots instead of long threes and drive to the basket in crowded lanes? Jalen used to have a very reliable midrange shot that he hasn't used much this season. As it is, teams seem to have their defensive five along and around the lanes to key on Alp and dare the other Rockets to shoot from a distance rather than have Alp shred them inside. Jalen needs to look at the opponents' defensive set, which is usually too compact to drive the lane into. He can fake his drives and pull up for midrange shots, which would be more likely to succeed. I am crossing my fingers.
We need to show the Suns we are not the “Old Rockets” of last year….play physical and play defense and we will win this game
Any updates on Brooks? I remember the Damian Lillard abdominal injury a couple years ago. He tried to go, but ultimately needed to be shut down.
Doesn’t it make sense for Cam to log a few minutes with Dillon Brooks out? Or do we see more of what Reggie Bullock has to offer. If Jalen and Tate start, couldn’t Cam come off the bench as a shooter, pairing with Amen Thompson?
