He’ll get benched for a familiar scrub like Chandler or Tucker at the 5 when it really counts in the playoffs.
When he starts taking and making 3's he will become a folk hero in Houston. I'm looking forward to it. It would be nice if he can pull opposing bigs away from the paint and keep size and rebounding. D'Antoni playing 2 bigs together may be a stretch but who knows. It will be interesting to see how this plays out.
Yes! Just imagine how bad our defense would be, while negating all the advantages a 7 ft 3 point shooter gives you on offense!
Don't feel bad, 99% of the people that are praising him now were just as hard or harder on him before. They just won't admit it.
Not really. We just have several extremely racist posters that hate white players at every opportunity. As long as he’s playing well, they won’t post. Thank god. It’s going to be a shitty GARM when he has a bad game though.
I haven't picked up on that. I suppose it's there, God knows there's no shortage of irrational love and hatred around here, but there's a problem with that... https://theundefeated.com/features/isaiah-hartenstein-nba-draft-2017/ For the record, I would have been fine had the Rockets moved on from him after the off-season he had. But he's been good for us in games and looks to only be getting better the more he plays. I hope MDA plays the hell out of him the next few months.
That last channel (NF) doesn’t just do highlights. He does all possessions which is really cool if you have the time to sit through it. He has all 3 of these games uploaded. I liked it better than the highlight only stuff, but the videos are around 5-6 minutes in duration.
I told people this over a year ago on this forum and was told his dad was only half black, that makes him 1/4 black and 3/4 white
35 points / 21 rebounds / 4 assists / 3 blocks and 80% shooting from the field in the last 52 minutes of play. Give him some of Capela's minutes. It would be great to reduce Clint's minutes to 28-29 and have him fresh for the playoffs. If Hartenstein proves himself capable of replacing Clint maybe even think about moving Capela in the offseason tu use that cap space on some extra shooting/defense.
Putting aside that race is a meaningless social construct invented by humans and isn't really even a real thing since we all share the same origins; anyone who pointlessly discriminates against Hartenstein for being white would also be wrong by their own ignorant criteria. This is his dad, Florian Hartenstein. Isaiah would be considered bi-racial if you're into that sort of pointless labeling. And to be clear; race is a make believe social construct concocted by humans but racism is still very real because idiots believe in that archaic and idiotic social construct. And I'm out on this topic.
Yeah lol. They should read a few articles on the young man. Both of these are good reads. I’m sure there are others. Sadly none of this should matter one way or the other. There is mention of this very thing in both including being in situations where people were unaware of his ethnic diversity and made racist comments about black people in front of him or being surprised when they see his father and say things to him like “oh, you’re black” to which he responds “yeah” https://www.google.com/amp/s/theundefeated.com/features/isaiah-hartenstein-nba-draft-2017/amp https://www.google.com/amp/s/syndic...hose-life-abroad-to-prep-son-for-nba.amp.html
