regarding the rockets

It’s about to be pretty bad after a very decent and somewhat expected start

They do not have the offensive firepower to make up for their lack of defensive..presence

I see why Jalen green being bad is so detrimental

They need to either find offense or find a way to be better on defense because I’ve seen them lose 3 games now from just not getting stops down the stretch

I understand wanting to move on from Green for like a known commodity like lavine but at the same time, the rockets were not supposed to be trying to exactly win a lot of games but establish a winning culture and environment and to me they already done that

So what’s the rush to move on from Green so soon?
 
It’s actually good he’s going through this

He will learn from it

Don’t ship the guy out, let him deal with the adversity

Not after losing

Garuba
Christopher
Martin
Tyty
KPJ

can’t have the L’s supercede the Wins in sengun, Jabari, and Eason

I agree with pretty much everything you said and think it's am accurate analysis of what the situation is

The only thing that I would say is the rush with Jalen Green is its years 3 and now you have to start talking about extending him and what that looks like


and for the record nobody said the Rockets should try to acquire Zach Lavine lol

Yeah but come on, you gonna sit and tell me Jalen Green isn’t worth a rookie extension for it to be up for consideration?

Now you could mean financially after getting Brook, FVV, and then thinking about Jabari and sengun and if you mean that then that’s valid

And I swore you brought potentially getting lavine yesterday lol

Maybe I’m mistaken

But I would think in a green trade, the player coming would be a known commodity so I point even though the example is mistaken is still the same

I’ll tell rockets fans like I’ll tell nets fans

Relax lol

But yeah Play some defense and stop relying on Jeff green to make shit happen lol

This why I've always stressed the importance of having as many bites at the apple as possible

If Jalen Green was the only prospect real upside and all of our eggs were in that basket we would be in huge trouble

You want to get as many swings as possible not just at talent but talent that has a high ceiling

You're lucky if 2-3 draft picks really workout for you over the course of 2-3 draft cycles of being bad
