  • Jalen Green has been on a tear recently, helping the Houston Rockets make a strong push for a playoff spot as we approach the end of the 2023-24 NBA season. At the start of the year, it was unclear how Jalen Green was gonna fit into the Houston Rocket's long term plans due to his shaky play. But over the course of the last 15-20 games, Jalen Green has been on fire and solidifying himself as a fantastic player to have on your roster.
    Despite the Alperen Sengun injury, the Rockets are close to beating out some other teams in the Western Conference for a play-in spot, and I took a look at how Jalen Green has been the primary catalyst behind it all.

    your final comments are definitely what people who havent been watching rockets basketball need to hear, this play is replicatable, in previous seasons it felt like it was just him making more shots/ the shots finally going in whereas right now hes getting to his spots more hes reading the defence better, hes playing harder defence, he is putting himself into comfortable situations and taking advantage of it

      Huge Rocket fan and if you think Sengun/Amen’s paint presence is the same then idk what to tell you. Amen can move unlike anyone I’ve ever seen so his gravity in the paint is significantly different from Sengun in the paint because he can move from one point to another and cause chaos. Love Sengun but come on. Sounds good in theory but it is not the same

    Jalen Green is the modern equivalence to what type of bag💰 prime Tim Hardaway introduced to us in the 90s West.
    I feel in this era of scoring 🔢 🧺 and having a larger physical frame in comparison to his predecessor. Jalen 's game can thrive in Udoka's half court friendly system 🪔 along with having pieces like Sengun and Van-fleet being respectable playmakers in both their front and Back-Courts.
    If the Rockets stay together and healthy, should be a playoff team for awhile.
