Rockets Young Talent 

Post#1 » by ijspeelman » Thu Mar 9, 2023 7:39 pm

How are you guys liking your young guys?

I have not gotten around to watching the Rockets that much this year, but wanted to see how Jalen Green, Kenyon Martin Jr, Jabari Smith, Alperen Sengun, and Tari Eason were developing.

Rockets are full of young talent with crazy potential. Sengun will be a stud for years to come which is very scary.

Add on Cam and Thompson?

Sheesh.

I believe that Shengoon is the player to build around. Son is an absolute baller

Rockets really need to build around him.

Very impressed by the Rockets after seeing them against the Blazers

Lots of young talent and now they have added FVV for some veteran leadership.

I really think the Rockets could be this years OKC Thunder

Jabari is seemingly on another level so far

Sengun is not the player to build around. Lots of other good pieces on the Rockets though. Should be a bright future.

Yeah I think that's a fair comparison. Lots of potential and they won't be tanking this season, so we could see them make the 7-10 seed area with about 40-45 wins. They still have a lot to figure out with a new coach and several players traded away, there will be some adjustment period. I'm excited to see a defense-first style of play, it might really mess up some opposing teams.
