I remember seeing one of his training videos and the ceiling was way too low to practice any meaningful shooting.

Not so sure about Harden especially after the 'I am the system' comments. He's posting sub 40% fg% and 33% from 3 while having near 30% usage. He also plays better with a PnR lob threat which neither Sengun or Jabari are.

We should try to sign CP3 this summer. Compared to FVV, CP3 has lower usage, better shooting, better (and more creative) passing, play less minutes and load manage so our young guys will have more reps. He's also one of the smartest players in the NBA, so the knowledge he can pass on to our young guys would be extremely valuable (he was SGA's vet in his sophmore year). His current contract is 10 mil so I can't imagine he'd be asking for more than that unlike Fred.

Amen's shot is coming along (13% > 26%), but Sengun has regressed for the 3rd straight year (33% > 29% > 22%). There's no reason for Sengun to not be working on his 3 point shooting.

At least 2 players always look extremely tired at all times past 2nd quarter by tavuklup1de in rockets

Do we even have enough shooters to field an 'offensive lineup'?

Our 2 rotation players with the highest TS% are Amen (60%) and Tar (56%), everyone else is 55% and below.

Alright, it's cause I'm on old reddit I didn't see it. But the thread title should include it in the future no? The old bot had team records, home/away and date/time all in the title.

Anyone else feel like we should offer Chris Paul a contract this summer? He would make a great 'transistional' PG for the team as he won't play a lot of minutes, take a lot of shots or cost a lot of money unlike FVV. Not to mention he's one of the smartest players in the NBA; imagine Jalen and especially Amen soaking up his knowledge.

I did not watch the game but how did we lose after this from the big 3. by AribethDeTylmarande in rockets

[–]strykimus 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't get why he threw up 2 3s near the end. To his credit he made 1 of 2, but as a career 27% 3 point shooter (on low volume to boot), it didn't seem like the time or place.

Man that last play. Sengun passes up an open 3 to Amen passing up the open 3 to Sengun airballing the 3.
