There's always people to pounce on excess pride or kicking players when they're down. It's so funny to imagine a front office being like that. Reacting to every game wildly changing all the plans constantly. Would make for a hilarious comedy series. Jabari is 100% going to be a star. Just restating it in case you didn't see it when I stated it before. Let the damn kid make mistakes and learn some hard lessons, hardly anyone else in the entire NBA is doing it at a younger age (6th youngest or something). He JUST started hitting his shots at the rim after the board mourned and b****ed and moaned about how his inability to convert inside handicaps his entire career. 20 games later he shows excellent improvement and they're already onto the next whine fest about how someone is never going to be something. Jesus christ.
Imagine being an only fan of someone projected to be a 3/D specialist who shoots 30% and can’t play D. I get he was our 3rd selection and is young but so was every other high draft bust …
The problem is that is an outlier... Sengun and Porter should be top options and they should be finding more ways to get Eason and Martin more looks at the rim... My worries of Green/Porter being Francis/Mobley are coming true... hoping I'm still wrong.. Porter at lease rebounds and distributes... better at the 2 I think... I would look at point guards in draft and free agency to look at making Green a 6th man if he can't start doing better.
Our entire team can't shoot outside of Sengun close to the basket and he can't play D. Unless we get a top 2 pick it's going to be more seasons of pain.
Yup Jabari's attitude has been pissing me off too. Dude is a liability in most games and acts like he's a star in the league. Get that entitlement beat out of you
This team reminds me of a bad schools worst class. Except the Nba is the school and they are the worst class.
I have no problem benching Jabari and Green. Let's see what Garuba and Martin/Eason do as starters.... I understand Green is young too, just saying he shouldn't be #1 option on offense at this stage. Curious if an assistant from Denver could turn Sengun into a Jokic on offense...
Coaching....coaching....coaching There's no leadership from coaching, and there are no vets who give a damn that can show these kids the right way to play. Our only vet is EG and he (rightfully) wants to get TF outta here. This is Steve Francis playground basketball, tanking is one thing but you don't help the franchise long term when you screw up the development of all the young talent that are supposed to be your future. Very bad.
On his weakside blocks he getting called for alot of fouls … that will settle down as he earns respect from Refs I hate he swipes at ball so much but he’s doing it because he needs more sand in his pants. The Rockets defense is a mess because Hollins old tail has them cheating to protecting the paint and letting teams kill us with open corner 3s
I think going number 3 is where the attitude comes from. Shoulda gone #1. Should be the first option etc etc. Coach Silas needs to deal with all that. Reality check time.
