I still prefer Tate coming off the bench with the 2nd unit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pastor Dillon Posted July 11, 2022 Author Share Posted July 11, 2022 Jabari is obviously not ready to be a number 1 option but I think he’s going to excel in the starting 4 role just playing defense and hitting shots. Hopefully he can make a nice pairing with Sengun. He could be a 20 point scorer if he develops his handles. He could end up being a taller version of Klay Thompson, obviously not as good a shooter. I like that Eason is gonna push for minutes. I think the starting line up has to be KPJ/Green/Tate/Smith/Sengun then if we keep Gordon it’s Gordon/Christopher/Matthews getting minutes off the bench and then Eason is gonna be in a battle with KJ and Garuba for that back up 4 spot/small ball center spot. We might keep Boban just so we can go big if we want to. Washington and Nix will be g-league guys who have potential to develop. I hope that we flip Gordon for something so that young guys can get minutes. Christopher is ready to be a 6th man. He’s gonna excel at being a scorer off the bench. I think eventually KPJ will be gone and we will need a starting PG but we are getting pretty set up elsewhere. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texansfan713 Posted September 23, 2022 Share Posted September 23, 2022 Looks like KJ Martin will be dealt when preseason is over. Sucks but logically i dont see any way he gets PT with us drafting Eason. Interesting to see what we can get in return for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a great 10th guy but I don’t think he’s gonna find many places that will give him a rotation spot. ultimately with all the draft picks we’ve had, they can’t all make the roster. At some point we will settle on 3 maybe 4 and then start adding vets around them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texansfan713 Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 (edited) Saw this excerpt on The Athletic Quote To close the first session of the day, the teams scrimmaged. The Athletic understands there were three groups, both in training camp and during their Bahamas retreat last week. On Tuesday, the beginning groups were as follows: Group 1 — Porter, Green, Gordon, Jabari Smith, Alperen Şengün Group 2 — Daishen Nix, Josh Christopher, Garrison Mathews, Jae’Sean Tate, Usman Garuba, Bruno Fernando Group 3 — TyTy Washington Jr., Trevor Hudgins, Kenyon Martin Jr., Tari Eason, David Nwaba, Boban Marjanović I swear if TyTy and Eason dont get minutes Im going to lose it. Why the heck are Nix and Mathews ahead of them? Edited September 28, 2022 by Texansfan713 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clear Eason is better than Mathews and Washington is better than Nix. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's clear Eason is better than Mathews and Washington is better than Nix. Its probably just making them earn their time. Not uncommon to see rookies on second units when we know they are better. Its the second day of camp, things will work themselves out and I am sure the best players will play. Or at worst, they can showcase some of those guys in the preseason and try to flip them for something before cutting them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He started practice activities back on Tuesday and should be good to go for the opener. im pumped. Rockets won’t be very good this year but should be fun to watch. Next year we should be fighting for a playoff spot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texansfan713 Posted October 16, 2022 Share Posted October 16, 2022 this might be the dumbest decision Silas makes as HC other than not giving KJ Martin playing time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not a big Sengun fan right now. I think he’s still a year away from being a starter in the nba. I think if he does start, he’s gonna play 22-24 minutes a night max.
