Bari needs a fresh start somewhere else. We’ve got 7 guys age 22 or younger. It’s time to make some decisions before we tank the value of our...
but let’s just acknowledge that Jalen has never shot more than 34% (his rookie yr) and has shot 33% the last two seasons. So 36% is a big jump....
fair enough. But I don’t see what Jalen adds if he can’t shoot or get to the foul line.
I would have rather traded him and recouped value than overpay him on an extension. Look at what OKC did with Giddy last year. Jalen would have...
I believe it averages over $35 mil a year. I’ll acknowledge that the contract is probably only a $10 mil per yr overpay. It’s not the end of the...
I’m only concerned that he’s not shooting well or getting to the line, which is what we really need to see from him. After an admittedly strong...
Like why didn’t we do what GS did with Kaminga? I’d love someone to make a legit argument why the Jalen extension was a better approach than...
Tari is a guy I think we cannot afford to let get to RFA. He will cost more in RFA because other teams are compitant at evaluating talent. And...
yeah but we need shooter. We need our shooting guard to be a shooter. If you are building around Sengun, Tari and Amen you need shooters. Jalen...
I wish we could go back in time and not extend Jalen. Hell, go back further in time and trade Jalen.
thats the concerning thing though; Jalen didn’t earn his extension. We didn’t enjoy the ride the first 3 yrs, so we bought a more expensive...
I think these are the 3 guys to build around. Now, someone tell me why we near maxed Jalen? ;)
they’re special. We better have enough bag left for those two.
I love the effort, physicality, and defense. But we have a stretch 4 that can’t shoot and a shooting guard that can’t shoot. That’s not gonna...
Amen, Tari Sengun and Dillon played really well. Those guys are pretty consistent. Jalen and Bari weren’t up to par through the 3 quarters I...
I’m excited to see what Reed can do running the offense. But I suspect both Jalen and Amen will bring the ball up the floor a lot.
If the rockets let Tari go I’d never forgive the organization. So if Stone wants to give near max money to a poor shooting AAU guy instead of...
He’s 19. He played 1 yr of college ball coming off the bench. Ten games in the NBA. He’s getting used to the flow of the NBA game. If he’s...
So it’s clear from that media session that Ime is not happy. He’s tired of the poor shooting. I think he could do more to put us in a better...
I’m all for getting excited about winning, but if you watch the games closely, we don’t have the shooting. It’s going to be very hard to win 45...
