    Weird article. Way too focus on Jalen and not nearly enough focus on Josh Christopher, but thanks for the content! Anyhoodles, cannot wait for the lottery.

    Page 2 is way more lit than page 1

    page 1 is the tank portion of the season, page 2 is like the off-season part where we know we have a guaranteed top 5 pick and we partying in Cancun

    Our kids (Inc those newbies joining in through 2022-2023 draft) will have the chances play big next season to maintain this very W unless the front office come to recognize the importance to move away Silas n replace him with a better/qualified hc.

    One thing for sure, no matter how good the steels are, without excellent engineering, they are raw, could never been forged into better ones which can one day be used to build up a well running machine.

    Still, It's gonna be stoned ferntits' call.

    I love Jalen Green like I love Deep Space 9. :) I think Jalen had a great second have of the season and will continue to improve. Saying Jalen is 6'6 is is like saying Donovan Mitchell is 6'3. He ain't. That's why Mitchell is a liability on defense guarding 2/3s because he is barely 6'1.

    The first half of this season was at best mediocre…. But the second half was very good. Green went from being a talented but timid player to someone that will compete for an all star birth next season and has upside of a franchise player.

    Porter was horrific for a lot of the season, but has really put it together and played at a high level. What happened in the past (including this season) will haunt him but he has finished very well. I’m not sold on him as a starting point guard but people have the right to be optimistic with him.

    The Rockets have to be quietly pleased with Sengun and Christopher as both have the ability to be at least rotation players.

    The Rockets managed to keep Wall from being a distraction and wrapped up the worst record in the league.

    Now the Rockets need a little luck… they have a 53% chance of getting in the top 4, and If they do that they will be in a good spot…. A 28% chance of having Holmgren or Smith next year, which would be a big win for them… and cap space coming up.

    Mitchell has a huge wingspan and very quick feet. He is a liability on defense because he doesn’t focus on it and it isn’t a big enough priority.

    I agree with you on Green’s height. I have stood right next to him and I am taller than he is and I am 6’5”. Green needs to guard point guards anyway, he is just better at it.
