its on coaching or perhaps on tilman, perhaps the instructions were to lose tonight, they may be earning serious money tipping someone how to bet, and honestly i dont blame them, because it seems NBA is a rigged league and tilman got robbed blind in his 2 first years in the office
I love that Sequin is already showing pretty good form from 3-pt line. With a little less hesitancy I think that could become an asset for him, that will enable the team to utilize him handling the ball from the top and just not as a picker. The sky’s the limit for this guy, but I think he will have some mighty struggles in the paint both offensively and defensively early in the season. He needs to jump on defensive rebounds. Right now it looks like he mostly stays flat footed and relies on positioning, which is great, until he runs into real nba centers and forwards.
His potential is high. But everything is predicated upon what the Rockets organization does for him because his size is the biggest limiting factor in the post which is where he is extremely skilled and effective. To compensate, the plays need to be designed for him so he can get a smaller defender on him or find a way to draw the bigger defender away via a PnR or a great playmaker. The post is also where the injuries happen often, unfortunately. I'm not sure I want to sign him up for that either. I would prefer him playing a slower pace near the top, shooting more 3s, but that's a very limited role, like Ryan Anderson was. Barring injuries, I predict we will keep him posted up. If any injuries occur, I see him becoming a stretch 4. Not a bad role, almost like RoCo.
