    They need Jabari on the floor.... DEFENSE IS LACKING AND THEY ARE TOO SMALL!

    Sengun as our last line of defense will never work and Ime knows that. He has to be paired with an elite shot blocking big. He’s a C in the sense of his offensive style, that’s it. His future role should be a 4 but he can’t shoot.

    Jabari wont help Fred with scoring.

    Fred is the hole on offense.

    0 pt is inexcusable.

    agree again haha.

    I was hoping like a Capela trade mid season. Miss that lob threat from harden. We need easy buckets and length. Jabari is not a shot blocker, guy gets worked by Jamal Murray on the post.

    Rockets can’t get stops. VanVleet has been a non factor.

    “Can’t put a price tag or value on Fred’s leadership!”

    “Jabari’s impact goes beyond the stat sheet!”

    This team just looks whatever now. Win two. Lose one.

    this is another embarrasing loss if they don’t fix it.

    If one of your starter cant score any points, you would be in trouble on offense.

    I think that he might have been undrafted.

    They developed him on Two - Way contracts and gave him a regular NBA contract Feb 2024.

    Jabari’s length changes the game on defense.

    Wasn't Sengun's defense supposed to be improved? Anchor?

    Great find. Stone was looking at Hawks 7th string centers during this time.
