Go Rockets!
Go Rockets x2!
Go 🚀
Put some respect on Jalen Green name Jackson
Let’s go htown! What up Jax?! Appreciate the show, happy holidays brother
Honestly Jackson you have to be ashamed of yourself. I love you and been following you for yrs and yrs on all platforms.
But for you to try and discredit any great performance he has this season.
Saying he just have great games against bad opponents is just an atrocious take from you.
This whole team plays well in transition. Even Alp.
We don't have great spacers to rely on halfcourt creation
And lastly. Since when do we expect consistency in nba history from a 22yrs old SG? do you realise even as a person in real life we don't have consistency at that age ?
Who is consistent on the Rockets?
Nobody. Even Alp who is our best player is not cause he is young and his game is still growing.
You can give someone flowers without downplaying and bringing them to the ground with you.
There could be several Rockets players at the all-star game or whatever you wanna call it, lol!
Alpy has the best shot at getting in for the West but then you have the rising stars game. Amen is most likely a lock for it. Don't know the age cutoff but maybe Jabari and Tari make it if they aren't considered too old.
Could even see Cam or Reed possibly though maybe not since the haven't been playing much.
He didn’t play much in the second, hardly played in the 4th. Then he talks about the opponent, then proceeds to go gaga for Senguns playing the same opponent 🤦♂️
He alp fan boy he hate jalen
You can't forget that they don't do it by positions anymore. Backcourt and Frontcourt. Alpy will also be competing with the likes of KD, LeBron on other forwards. KD may be injured but who knows?
Go rockets!
The all star format is front court and guards so Alp has to contend with Kevin Durant and Lebron James as well
✌🏻
I can no longer buy into the Jalen Green hype. He is too inconsistent. Does well against Bad teams with no defense.
this is what happens when they feed Jalen the ball instead of give him one shot every 4 mins lol. Even when he had it going last night you see times they look him off
Jalen green has one good game against a trash team and ppl act like he consistently doing this against top tier talent 🤣 #tradejg4
Jalen is consistently inconsistent.
STOP HATING ON JALEN BRO
Just give Jalen some love. This slow paced offence is designed to suit alp and fvv.
Even Jabari isn’t put in a position to thrive
Jabari's rebounds are down bc he's being asked to clear out the big and this is letting the others swoop in free and grab the boards and run. Seems like a net positive when you watch
You got that magic touch Bro. Sorry you're catching heat but the timing is always impeccable.
I said it long ago that switching defensive schemes requires huge energy, concentration,interpretation, physicality and mental alertness all which affects the offense no doubt
Check every 30+ points of jalen games this year no team from top 8 so, he is right no need to be toxic fan.
As a Turkish, I am also expecting higher FG percentage from Alperen, he has overall better consistency but inconsistent at the rim. Definitely shooting must be better.
If the Rockets finishes inside the top six, as a young team there’s no way alperen sengun it’s best player wouldn’t make an all star selection. I don’t care what wemby,Davis and sabonis does as long as their teams finishes outside of the top six
I honestly think asking him to be a rebounder at the 2 guard and also run in transition is a bit too much
The pelicans we're never going to win this game
