And you should create more minutes for Tari. Giving him just 16 minutes in his second year is crime. He should play 25+ minutes. Whitmore is a G-League guy then.
Less than 30 wins was a disaster last year and Silas&Co succeeded in. Lost the jobs. Rockets has a wonderful core : JGreen/Alp/Bari/Tari and Amen. The new signings are all expandable including FVV. The core might bring 35 wins and we will see the effect of "the expandables". They might help us to win few more games or ruin the progress of "the core" and kill the momentum. Anything possible between 15 and 45 wins.
Yeah, maybe. I like Tate. I just feel like he has the least potential of our guys that can play the 3. And it would be bad to hold guys like Tari to too few minutes. Maybe we are really planning with putting our rookies in the g-league until the trade deadline…
I was decently close here. FVV / Green / Brooks / Smith / Sengun Amen / KPJ / Whitmore / Eason / Landale
Well you are entitled to your opinion and I am to mine. I don't think you read my points, so I will repeat some: *The Celtics with Brad Stevens were a playoff bunch that struggled to win for a few months when Udoka took over. Those players were experienced 25 year old Tatum and Jaylen Brown. You are introducing new players (VanVleet, Dillon, Landale, Jeff Green) to new teammates that are young.....to a new coach. This isn't Garnett, Ray Allen, Paul Pierce being put together. *I've heard several different podcasts (not homer Rockets) and YouTube videos reporting VanVleet is annoying and plays the blame game often. Watch the VanVleet interviews at the beginning of this video and it looks like VanVleet is a JackaLope https://www.youtube.com/live/cFQ-Gjm_20k?feature=share *Conflict in styles.....VanVleet is a slow down the pace guy while Green, Tari, Jabari, Cam Whitmore, Amen are more AAU style of get out and run. It's like CP3 meets GSW's......but we are dealing with a lot of "under 23" year olds. *Dillion Brooks was a PER of 9 last year in 73 games. You might be expecting too much from Dillion Brooks. You can expect a lot of inefficiency on offense. *VanVleet according to Raptors fans gets picked on every play because he is 6'1". No longer has Siakim, Precious, Thad Young, Boucher, Scottie Barnes providing help defense. His defense will be exposed in Houston. *Most of the Rockets youth are going to hate VanVleet and his, "I'm a cranky old man"- stick. KPj is all but gone. I can't imagine KPj not being a disruptive issue. All of these changes are going to over stimulate KPj's nerves. I expect him to lash out. Best to trade him now to a team without pretenders like FVV acting special. *VanVleet is now making Giannis money. Every point guard are going to take it to FVV. Ja, SGA, Kyrie, you name it will expose FVV as average at best. If you take off your rose colored glasses and research FVV and Dillon Brooks......you may come to a different conclusion. FVV is cocky and arrogant but that doesn't mean anything to me. Women fall for cocky and arrogant all the time.....and end up with a minute man lover in bed. Talk is cheap. https://youtube.com/shorts/kcyKsvdtMXg?feature=share4
He played a lot of SF last season in Denver. I see Jeff Green as the bridge until Cam Whitmore is ready to play and our reserve plan if he busts.
No you didn't. And you didn't honor your bet. I've proposed two bets here: 1) I challenged all of those claiming LeBron was coming here account pick slips.......nobody took me up on that. I believe I forced Holic into his famous 98,9% is not 100% claim. 2) I bet someone last year on account pink slips on KPj and Brunson season stats. I have no doubt I would have won that bet because my preseason projected stats were almost spot on. But I'm not much on betting, even though I would make a ton of money.
1. No one bet me 2. I don’t think you even know what the bet was, Jalen green rookie year second half vs Anthony Edwards second half. I’m glad Jalen green improved but Edwards still clears on all the stats I bet on. You are writing essays on 31 wins I’m giving you +9 if you still won’t take that then stfu you don’t even believe your own sht.
