    Yes, his shooting slipped at the end, but I was so impressed by his defense to close out the game. The Spurs kept trying to iso Green on Murray, but if I recall correctly Murray couldn’t score a single time. When Jalen isn’t too out-muscled by the opposition, his quick feet and reflexes (not to mention his above-average :p athleticism) make him tough to score on…and that didn’t seem to be the case earlier in the season.

    I cannot wait to see how he keeps developing!

    As Jalen continues to progress and is looking like a franchise player I think the question about point guard becomes even more critical.

    we know KPJ isn’t it. We know Christopher isn’t a point guard. We know Schroeder is a free agent. And we know there’s no point guard in this draft worth picking where the rockets are picking (or even where Brooklyn is picking).

    it’s a position critical to Jalen Green’s success. What’s our plan for next season? John Wall/Nix combo?

    @Plowman was right about this draft being 1984.


    Jalen is Hakeem, MJ, and Barkley combined

    We got ourselves a star ladies and gentlemen!

    Next season will be fun with a full offseason under his belt.

    I don't know about next season. Currently nbadraftdotnet has 8 PG's in the top 14 picks next year. If they can get Chet/Paolo/Jabari this year it will line up nicely with a PG perhaps in the next draft.

    2023 pick PG
    Green SG
    Jabari SF
    Sengun PF


    bench
    Christopher
    Garuba
    Tate
    Martin
    2022 Brooklyn pick ?? (these last 2 may be used to improve the pick next year for a target in the draft the rockets want at PG etc)
    2023 Bucks pick ??

    I just hope we luck out in the lottery coming up.

    looks like we won’t be a complete bottom dweller next year
