1. Bari's defense looks good and they'll run plays for the guy to get him open. Not worried about the (real) bad handle. Focus on off-ball
2. Tyty plays winning basketball. Houston looked for a playmaker and that's Tyty's strength. Also love that the guy has real good BBIQ on offense and defense.
3. Tari's going to be a crowd favorite but also a generates facepalms.
Overall, I think Houston is going to be a lot better, but they're in a stacked Western Conference.
During that interview with Green today it sounded like they want to install a motion offense: focus on passing and getting three pointers flying.
They honestly have a good roster for that: plenty of secondary playmakers who although favor scoring, can set other players up. There's nothing about their core that makes me think they can't make greats reads and passes. KPJ had one of the highest catch and shoot three point percentages around the entire NBA last season and we know Green is a natural shooter so the off-ball game is looking great.
It'll be a good season for them: get Green, KPJ and Sengun experience to build more chemistry and get some good wins against some good teams. They'll still most likely be a lottery team, but in a stacked draft next year that'll be ideal and they'll be much better than their record will indicate.
I'm personally liking Anthony Black for Houston next year if they miss on Wembanyama: true 6'7/6'8 jumbo point-forward. Terrific court vision, handle and shooting.
Pretty much a Luka archetype. Probably won't be under the radar by mid-season.
Look at how breh controls the pace of the game, a real floor general.
Players go flying off dude during contact:
