That's a tough question I think it'll sort itself out throughout the season, but Amen and Tari are future starters on a championship level team. Brooks and FVV came in here and played a massive role in our culture shift and Brooks is underrated here... there will be a starter or two on our team that gets replaced by Tari and/or Amen but I don't think it needs to happen ASAP. We are still figuring out who our #1 star player is and if the second best star complements them or will we eventually trade for that player. That plays a big role in it. As currently constructed I love it when Green/Tari/Amen are on the floor together but Sengun and FVV were our best players last year If we cant find a star and Giannis were to become available and we traded for him what's the best young players we have that we should keep? If Devon Booker were to become available what's the best young players to build around him? I think Tari is the kind of player that can be a huge role player for any star.
LOL at what exactly? Why should there be transparency to fans? Do you really think every player wants private medicals detail public? Why don't you trust the Rockets medical staff? Is there a legitimate reason or just fan nonsense?
No need for that. Anyone who disagrees with this take is trolling or needs to have any license involving machinery indefinitely revoked.
Tari reminds me of Jimmy Butler, just a pure competitor, pure fire in the heart. Hopefully Tari becomes as good Butler.
Shame players aren’t all built like Tari and while I’m far from a competent, consistent basketball player, I play like him almost every second I’m on the court. So I love seeing guys with that kid of effort play well and do well. Glad I got his jersey last year, because I really feared he might be injured enough not to be back or at least not the same player he was. And he’s come back stronger than ever!!
Such an excellent player. Just needs 10-15 games to adjust to being a starter. We need that energy, that speed, that wingspan. We don't need Brooks' tools and pace on offense. Really appreciate Brooks contributions but he's not a good fit anymore with the core (unless he comes off the bench). He needs to be on a slow contender that plays methodical basketball - can be really excellent in that setting. We need a more dynamic player at the 3. I feel like it could energize Sengun, Bari and Green. The reason I think this has a chance of happening is because Udoka is a huge Tari fan. He's a Brooks fan too but he's especially high on Tari. Am I remembering correctly he compared him to Kawhi? Really want to trade Brooks for Duncan Robinson (expiring contract) and a pick swap. Feel like we can use the shooting at backup 4.
I think Brooks has played well so far but I agree that Tari could be that shot in the arm that the starters really need. It seems like the starters always start slow and get themselves in a hole while the bench has to climb them out of it. Having Tari start can help with that but I just don’t see Brooks accepting a bench role or Ime doing that, so I agree he would have to be traded.
I checked, they need someone to secure the Defensive Rebounds because the Rockets are in the Bottom 5... While being the best Offensive rebounding team. Might also be the reason that the Opponents shoot better than the Rockets, hence not that many boards to begin with....while the Rockets miss so many shots.
Jabari isn't hitting his jumpers like last year. Tari is coming back after missing a huge part of the season. When Tari joined the Rockets, his jumper was weak. This is no longer the case. I'm getting frustrated. Start with Tari, bring Jabari off the bench.
It's really not justifiable to play Bari more minutes than Tari (whoever starts). Also, Alpi and Tari seem to have better chemistry than Alpi and Bari. There really isn't anything other than free throws Bari does better than Tari.
