    Wood and him have a lot of similarities when it comes to having the wrong mindset. Wood seems to have worked through it, maybe he can help KPJ with it as someone who had to battle that issue himself.

    It’s always easier to take it from someone who has been through the same stuff u are going through

    His pace and patience look very much like Harden. He’s a much more explosive leaper and athlete, but not nearly as strong. Harden is a bully. Court vision isn’t quite Harden level either, but let’s be honest, expecting that is unfair considering he may be the all time greatest passer to ever play the SG position. So much so that he’s easily transitioned to full time PG twice in his career and not coincidentally has averaged 11 plus assists per game both times. So that being said, his court vision isn’t bad at all. I think he can very easily be a 5-6 assists per game player which is very good for a SG. Hard to say if that’s his ceiling though. He’s so young.

    Vipers coach always loses lead before calling TO.

    Would be 2nd game lost after leading by double digits.

    That's on the coach.

    Abhorrent passing by the vipers and KPJ. SMH.

    Why am I having more fun watching Vipers over Rockets? FML.

    Same. This is kinda sad, but I’d much rather watch KJ, BT, and KPJ right now.

    He and Wood are probably the only silver linings for the future

    Nice zone defense.

    Hope Silas is watching.

    THAT zone D is better than drop coverage.
