He’s gotta get that 3 point percentage up to league average and that might mean working a little more off ball if they can get a real point guard to put next to him it may also just be about him solidifying his mechanics…he’s shooting a nasty 32% on corner 3’s so even the easiest deep ball he’s struggling with …secondly for all of his athleticism he’s been a pretty mediocre finisher around the rim this year …that could be a thing of him getting stronger over time ..I know he was really frail coming into the draft but he’s got to get that together …I like his aggression and skill set tho ..hopefully the young guy puts it all together
Coaching. Jalen has the toughest road to the rim of any perimter players. He’s bracketed(not tough to do with this terrible offensive scheme). He usually has to beat 2 to 3 defenses to get to the rim and he doesn’t get easy transition basket because our points guards doesn’t push the tempo and suck at fast breaks.
Y’all really don’t know how bad things are in Houston. The fat break is a continuation of John wall presence. One thing I thought when we acquired him was he would be a one man fats break(like Russ was when he played in Houston and like how John was in DC) but it was the opposite. Wall would always stop the transition and walk it up. It was maddening. He showed KPJ that bs. There’s no reason with all
This youth and athleticism this young hosuton squad shouldn’t be one of the top teams in fast break scoring. We’re already the best rebounding team in the league. Shouldn’t be that hard
