You're right, Reed on-ball offense requires screens and staggered screens and pindowns etc. He is bad at creating shots 1v1, and doesn't have the...
Not accurate to say Ime was "handed a roster". Ime was heavily involved in creating this roster. You are correct however, that the perimeter...
I disagree with this. KD is signed to a very reasonable cap number ($43M), is healthy as can be (knock on wood), and is trade eligible the day...
Correction, we are an iso team. It’s what Ime believes in: “Beat your man” is the core to his basketball philosophy. I’m not being hyperbolic...
Reed is just a weird profile of player. High 3P% + 3PAr, elite defensive hands and turnover economy, great offensive processing, strong vertical...
Sure - it seems like a lot of people in this thread are arguing "is Amen really really good or not?" or "should Amen get the rookie max?". I'm not...
Reed has made mistakes and hasn't been as good as his hot stretch earlier this season, but people are losing the plot a little bit with the idea...
I think that this gets at the core disagreement among folks on here. IMO, the idealized version of what you described is a great player. Probably...
Respect the intel, but Keon Ellis is probably the worst guard ball handler in the NBA. He cannot dribble whatsoever.
Lost in the first round to a play-in team, who had an injured star. That play-in team then proceeded to get smoked in 5 in the next round by the...
To be effective, modern NBA teams tend to need a certain mix of skills. Our FO and coach, as a gambit, rejected that and concentrated resources...
Trade him why? In an attempt to save a team that anybody who watches every game can tell doesn’t work? So that we can lose in 6 in the first round...
Ask yourself: Do you think this team is a contender? Do you think a team of Sengun/Amen/ancient KD as the three best players can win a...
We've had the same "problem" for years -- the roster lacks enough perimeter offensive skill. Handling, shooting, passing, shot creation, turnover...
The thread is about being the Rockets' franchise player. A player we can win a championship with as our best player. Yes, in 2025 your best...
Every one of these outlier shooting development guys (Horford, Kidd, Rondo, Lopez) only became passable standstill catch and shoot 3pt shooters,...
When it comes to the shooting, people are wishcasting. Amen cannot shoot from 3. It is probably >90% certain he will never be a good catch & shoot...
Curious, do you think Amen with the ball in his hands on the perimeter in a halfcourt setting is a positive for his team? Like, relative to a rep...
Yes this is true, we are a truly elite chaos basketball team. Unfortunately, the playoffs is about how good your halfcourt offense is against a...
I think you are right in that the Rockets should do more of trying to “find” a skilled perimeter player out there, that they believe in and is...
