  1. Imeā€™s system is just tough for Jalen rn, plus heā€™s a slow starter historically. Not too worried about

  2. I think it was ok,50 percent a challenge to jaleen green aggressiveness to play.and that 4th quarter was a big challenge as well to sengun and Fred vanvleet to prove that they're doing good..

  3. For some of us the number one priority of the team is still development not making the playoffs. So I don't know how I feel about prioritize and winning games with a bunch of older players who are going to be here long at the expense of our young guys. Development should still be the number one priority even though we want to win a couple more games

  4. This is senguns team. And Jabari getting better should make jalens job easier but he has to open up his play making abilities. That will open up his game… but he ain't got no sauce

  5. I was upset about the loses because we were losing by one possession, but I'm proud of the way they are competing until the end. The problem is finishing. I think Udoka is trying to show Jalen how to fulfill his role as a closer, once Jalen Green improve his role it'll be icing on the cake to take us over the top.

  7. I'm with you frank āø I think Jalen deserves time well not just him we do the rockets and ime do don't cut ya nose to spite ya face so to speak these microwave rockets don't appreciate the challenge it's better to have him reduce his value to what he playing like and have lavine on a lower contract that a Shai who might level out on a max in 3 years either way he can't not be jordan Clarkson or Lou will that's a good role player on some good teams so right now I think he gont be a Upper teir gaurd rip Hamilton Alan houston or even Drexler if he stopped at Eddie Jones or sleepy Floyd it's not bad all 2nd picks not even that great just be healthy work hard and get smarter everyday every thing else is coming I think

  8. I appreciate frank. some of the Rocket discourse has gotten out of hand. People forget Rockets were terrible 15 minute ago. It will take time to undo what Silas has done.

  9. Hey man, love your channel! How you breakdown the plays has made the games much more fun to watch.

    Do you have any explanation for why we are not attacking the weak defender as much recently? Is it bc we donā€™t have 3pt respect?

    Also breakdown on Jabariā€™s offense would be awesome, he is pretty good in mid/close range.

    Much appreciated

  10. Yea jalen has to grow into that alpha clutch player. He not there yet. He still disappears in games. Hopefully he does grow into that player by next season. It probably succs to hear but kpj would be thriving in this new system. Jalen is more athletic but he was a better scorer. Crazy thing is his ex girlfriend says all that was reported against him is a lie and were never her words. She has never given a statement to the police or daā€™s office. Maybe the league and the rockets was just tired of kpj!!

  11. I do not care for Jalen Green game at all. I know I should be patient but everything about his game outside of jumping needs works.

    He has no fundamentals on his shot, his ball handling, situational awareness, pnr play.

    No go to offense, doesnā€™t know how to accept a screen. He gets hot and mask but he is way to inconsistent for my likes.

    Iā€™ll give him some credit for taking to defense coaching but I promise if they packaged him I wouldnā€™t lose sleep at all
