Just trade him straight up for Bead Beal I ain't even joking. We'd be better off, and the salary is only for 2 years
He has to be better, and when he's not Udoka has to recognize it and adjust. There are some nights when it's obvious Jalen doesn't have it. Everyone can see it. In the playoffs, you can't ignore that.
Ime clutching at straws putting him back in the 4th. It should have been obvious that Bari should have been in to finish the game.
As predicted.....bringing a knife to a gun fight. Steph had 5 threes to our 6. Udoka didn't play Holiday or Jeff Green for their spacing ability. Sengun 2's work in the regular season, but the good teams in the playoffs will kill you from multiple three point shooters opening spacing,
No idea why they didn’t look for Bari more on the perimeter. He looked like he came to play. Weird and troubling that Udoka didn’t see it.
Why we bring up his meaningless last 3 regular season game when he played one half each of those games... Let's stop overreacting it's one game.
"who cares its the end of the regular season, it doesn't matter" I can't believe someone actually said this.
Warriors said they would take advantage of Sengun: *Multiple 3-point shooters would punish Houston for playing drop coverage. They did. Sengun had to guard smaller players on the perimeter *They deliberately out ran him down the court to have a numbers game. Get the easy rim run or open 3 somewhere as Sengu Warriors 12 (threes) Rockets 6 (threes) *Pack the paint so the Rockets have to be a jump shooting team. Sengun got most of his points with his free throw line shot. There is more to the game than offense. I'm consistent as I've always said Sengun is a champion of the regular season, but until he shoots there's more, he contributes to the clogged congestion in the paint. Jokic can shoot 3's. Sengun is no Jokic.
This guy is the dictionary definition of the word "overrated". He becomes a dunkstronaut against tanking teams but a fartsronaut against strong teams.
I feel like some players could get better shooting percentages shooting from half court than Jalen shooting from the 3pt line. I’d ask if maybe he broke both his arms but he’s always been dogshit at shooting, honestly he is terrible at most things on the basketball court outside of running fast.
the entire team basically took the last 3 games off wrapping things up with an embarrassing home finale against Denver that crappy play only continued in game 1 only reason we didn’t get blown off the floor by more than 20 points is because we grabbed an insane 22 offensive rebounds
https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6295667/2025/04/21/rockets-playoffs-game-1-loss-warriors/ • Jalen Green, who’s averaging just 5.25 points over his last four outings, is in a scoring funk and having a difficult time adjusting to recent aggressive defenses he’s faced (Warriors, Denver Nuggets, LA Lakers, LA Clippers). Green thrives on early rhythm, but Golden State is a premier help defense team and is sending the kitchen sink at the fourth-year guard whenever the ball is in his hands. However, Green is a 40 percent catch-and-shoot option. There needs to be a sweet spot between his spacing and driving gravity — and it’s on all parties involved to find some tweaks within the offensive setup. https://bbs.clutchfans.net/threads/...en-green-can’t-be-better-than-edwards.325559/ “Yeah but you see, the only reason he’s better is because of the whistle he gets and he gets to play with Naz, Randle, DD, Conley & NAW. If you put Ant on the Rockets, he’d struggle to score and would look like Jeremy Lin!”
