Houston is going to make a serious mistake if they don't treat their backcourt as the centerpiece.
I've seen fans say they should move Thompson to the 4 to accommodate Sengun when he comes back :snoop:

I like Sengun, but undersized Jokic simply ain't Jokic. Like, you can't have an undersized front court against these play-off teams man. Sengun/Thompson front court is absurd outside of a few stretches against any decent team. These cats are starting to sound crazy after every Rockets win.

He ain’t no Jokic. Jokic lets it fly from the perimeter if you disrespectful. Sengun hesitate and pump fakes. Multiple times. Like if they ain’t bite the first time, they ain’t biting. Because of that teams have a game plan for Sengun. That said I wouldn’t trade him or green. Let them figure it out together.

Yeah, it's a complicated problem.

The main gripe is again, Sengun is undersized. It is what it is. Will get into foul trouble vs the bigger centers through a series and not quick enough to check the fast twitch, skilled 4's.
And he’s not a dominant rebounder, so we need and expect Jabari to pick up the slack here buts he’s undersized too. Jabari had Giddey under the rim one on one off an offensive rebound and got punked by Giddey. He didn’t even get the ball to rim :francis:

Stop it. You need a half court game once the playoffs start.

I’m not going to say bust but he went from looking like JAG to looking like a future superstar. Idk what happened but this dude done turned into a Dawg

you need balance. Push the pace for fast break when it’s there. My biggest criticism of FVVealrier was j felt he was directly responsible on the court for the slow pace. He was always walking it up after a rebound instead of same wing what’s there. It’s a direct contrast to how he’s playing recently. I don’t know if that was him to Ime instruction buts it was annoying to see. You have to play to your stars strengths. Get the rebound and get the ball to a guard asap. Tari, Cam, Amen, and Jalen all want and need to get out and run.

Yeah I was at the airport today and heard some people talking about him and Ja today. Saying he got the most hops in The leap
Completely forgot about Ja.

I think Jalen has a perfect opportunity to shine with Ja out the picture

Now when Ja comes back and they go head to head it’ll be interesting

Insignificant posting from an insignificant poster

Jalen Aguino Vazquez Green



Thats one scary pinay.



Hope he stays disciplined penetrating the rim and the draws.

Starting to see more Jalen green posts on social media than ANT :whoo:

Could Jalen be the new face of the nba :ohhh:

His play style plus his already big fanbase will make him the face if he keeps it up. You can even see the rockets are leaning towards it. He has that hate him or love him appeal that we don’t see too often.

Haven’t seen that polarizing hate/love appeal from a 3 year player since you know who. :youngsabo:
Ja got it too. He’s been out so out of sight, out of mind. They play alike too. Ant has it to a certain extent but i don’t think he’ll ever have that casual fanbase. Other than that, all the other top young players are either not entertaining enough(Paolo,Shai, etc) or not polarizing enough. Wemby is European and their name and likeness never translates like that.

Mavs game tonight will most likely show how outmatched the front court is when it comes to size. Going to get pulverized around the basket. Same with the T-Wolves.

Even with Sengun, the front court is way too small. In an ideal world they need a big center and see if Sengun can hang at PF and not be a tweener.

They going to have to go nuclear to win these next two games imo.

With Cam back, I’m hoping they go insanely fast. They need to make the bigs unplayable. Just run run run
