    Solid, in-depth article. I don't mind the author's style, but then to me the majority of sports writing sounds like it was written by a pro wrestler. :D

    quote from the article -- "Christopher packages the requisite power, off-ball instincts, and finishing to predominantly subside on drives"... that's the kind of English Lit grad wannabe bs that gets under my skin -- maybe it's a typo -- pretty sure they meant to say "subsist on drives" -- but it just comes off as gratingly pretentious while also ignorant. Miss me with that ****. Simple but accurate English works so much better.

    Once he dials in his 3 ball, slows down a bit and cuts down on the young mistakes, he'll be solid on both ends.

    I hope he enjoys every moment because he seems likable and that makes it even better for all to watch him live his best life. His hard work and upbringing shows in most things he does. His family and anyone that he had met has to be fan of his. Seems like a really good person, glad he is a Rocket

    I really hope his first few summer league games were an experiment by our coaching staff. Otherwise, he is trending in the wrong direction IMO.

    Everyone here so quick to give up on Josh. It's great to have a stacked roster with lots of potential but it kinda put him in a weird spot. I really think he will be one of the best 6th man of the league in future yet it looks like he is the 10th man in rotation.

    With all the talent Stone has amassed the competition for minutes is going to pack a lot of pressure on these guys. So far, I think JC has been pressing to hard and looks to have regressed. If he could have just one game early in the season where he goes off, I think the pressure will be less and he can start progressing again. He has plenty of talent, but we have tons of it on this team. I would like him to take all of the NIx’s minutes who I think is a career journeyman.

    Yeah he's looked shaky, but it's just preseason. I'm all for him getting Nix's minutes just not at point.

    If Nix gets nicked, his minutes won't go to Josh. TyTy would be the only natural PG left.

    Jaygup needs structure.

    I bet if he were on the spurs he'd become a great role player.

    The hard part was the sizes that don't fit me, but then I realized, "Christmas is right around the corner!"
