WHO ****ING CARES?????? THEY WON!!!! Green had 7 turnovers and 7 assists....THEY ****ING WON !!!!!! TURNOVERS don't matter if you force the other team into the same - we did....and we won....... Kids make a lot of turnovers - those come down as they get chemistry and comfortable - hell Harden was a TURNVOER MACHINE in Houston but no one cared, or very few did because we WON. I don't give TWO STEAMING GREASY SMELLY PILES OF **** about turnovers if we win the game. Winning is the ONLY stat that matters.....PERIOD ! So tired of the infantile KPJ isn't a PG bullshit narrative - people need patience.....he will be fine, and yes, starting next to Green - DEAL WITH IT! DD
Look, i know how much you hate numbers and facts but harden turned it over less often the kpj, so if he was a TURNOVER MACHINE, whats kpj?
I care if someone says "We have a point guard that can playmake" after a game he finished with 3 assists in 44 minutes. He clearly CAN'T. He finished the game with less assists than Eric Gordon. You all need to get real.
We don't have a PG, zero, nada, no PG on this team, we have creative combo guards......that is how positionless basketball works. There are how many PGs in the league that are not scoring first guards now????? One? Gonna have to get with the times......guys. DD
Huh? Harden had a 15.6 TO% and kpj is 17.9 TO%. Are you saying that 15.6 is more then 17.9? You’re gonna have to show your work on that one
Such a weird take. Winning habits lead to more wins. Losing habits lead to more losses. Just because you win a game doesn’t mean the losing habits that occurred in that game should be ignored or that they don’t matter.
He sure is....at 22 years old - are you saying at 22 years old and 14 months into playing the primary initiator role that he is as good as he will ever be? Get the **** outta here with that nonsense....he is 22, he will get better. WE WON ! Oh please that is funny, Usage rate is such a joke......all that matters is win%. I am saying that he is 22 years old, and will get better, I know you HATE him and you just SEETHE to say something negative on a day after we had a big win and he and Green both had lots of turnovers but with good defense we won....it must suck for you to be so down on a player that all you can do is b**** about a player you hate instead of enjoying a good team win..... So sad for you....I pity you.\ P....MOTHER****ING...ING! DD
All score first point guards you are talking about have much better game sense and playmaking ability than kpj. Luka is a score-first point guard and i don't think you'd like to compare his playmaking skills to kpj's for instance.
They don't matter - especially when you consider the team is generally all under 22 years old - because most reasoned people know that it takes until about 24-25 before players start hitting their peak and any micro analysis before that is just ignorant and impatient. Is it ok to say...KPJ needs to work on his turnover issues - HELL YES.... But if you say that about KPJ you best be saying the exact same thing about Green and his turnover problem as well. Don't be a hypocrite because you just want one Rocket's player to shine more than the other, they are both wearing the jersey, support them equally......I think for some reason people Bully KPJ and IMHO, it is flat out wrong.....just let these young guys develop and we may have a juggernaut in the backcourt if it works out. DD
It sure is that he is 22 and getting better......or are you saying this is as good as he will ever be, which in that case is a blatant lie. Luka? The kid that was a pro at 15? That is the standard now? If he ever gets as good as Luka we will dominate, same for Green. My Gawd man, have some ****ing perspective....a guy playing combo guard as one of the two initiators for 14 months is not going to be as good as Luka and may never be, that is your standard? SERIOUSLY? WOW - some of you just hate for hate sake. DD
Kids who never played the game in their life think because they can read a spreadsheet they have a clue......THAT is the joke. Great job KPJ and team - nice work beating your 4th playoff team this year, and your third in a row at home and being 5-5 in the last 10 - serious progress is happening - for those that understand the game and are enjoying the ride. DD
That’s not usage rate. That’s just how often they turn the ball over. Kpj turns it over 17.9% of the time and harden 15.6%. Doesn’t matter if they had the ball 4 times or 400
No, they put in work as pros early which gave them a leap ahead - proper coaching in Europe is greater than AAU **** ball here in the states. AAU sucks for development. DD
