First of all, your analysis is fantastic. I just want to point that out. But there’s something I’m curious about. You put Şengün at the top of the 'Hard to Sub' list, and I agree he belongs there! But here's the thing: when we compare the total minutes played by the starting five over the first 10 games, Alperen has the fewest. Is that normal? Fred : 355 Jalen : 330 D. Brooks : 316 Jabari : 283 Alperen : 282
Excellent analysis as always. The offense looks much worse when not ran through Sengun. I especially dont understand the Dillion post ups smh. How Dillion get mid post touches before Jabari🤦🏿♂️
Thanks for the analysis. Important thing is if Udoka is going to waste this year as well for the sake of Jalen and forget about the lineup that gives you the best rating. As long as Jalen's efficiency does not improve by a great length, this team will not win big games. Currently his low efficiency despite his large playing minutes seems to be the most worrying factor. Even though Fred's shooting percentage is also low, his management of the game and ball handling would still be a great asset for the team. Besides, we expect him to improve in that field as the season goes and his playing times become somewhat lower, perhaps around 28-30 minutes.
I love your analysis videos Frank, everything data driven, no bullshit, no hidden agenda, top of my rockets channels! I have seen some stats saying we are 29/30th in assists/passes, I’d love to hear your take on this and overall why and how we suck at offense
Hi Frank, a genuine question : what changed that Sengun can not make his great assists like before, it seems like he pushes the offence alone with his physicality and foot work. Back then when he pushes a little bit, there were many people cutting into the paint, but now they mostly wait for a free 3point at 3 point line, is this something ime planned ? Do you have some opinions on this ?
Tari and Amen help Sengun a lot in defence also. They won't let anyone pass them easily and block their shots at the rim. Seems like Sengun, Jalen, Amen, Tari, Reed will be the future line up with Jabari as the 6th men when length and shooting is needed. But Amen needs shooting, Jalen needs consistency and Sengun needs a backup center or Harry Potter wand.
Tari Eason has been insane this year. I get the politics but we need his energy in the starting lineup badly. That and like you said, Bari can probably really shine in that backup five role. It really just feels like he's not getting a rhythm and warmed up and as a shooter you need that. Making him run all over the place would probably be really good for him in those short minutes
If Jabari was involved on more of the screen actions and short rolled to a shot. And did some curls off some backscreens to get more 2 point jumpers. It would take some pressure off the other bigs. The lack of movement or structure on offense hurts him the most
Man I just have one thing to say.....keep up with this great work!!! Thank You!!! PS I lied I have one more thing to say....you need more Olajuwons and less Shaqs on that wall :))))))))
Great analysis again, agree with a lot of the things you said. I am actually really impressed and happy how Ime changed this team's defense identity in 2 years. The way Sengun improved on defense is impressive. I think a lot of people take that as a given. I think time is the finite resource for coach and stamina is the finite resource for the players, you got to pick and choose your priorities. With that said, I feel like we are closer to the Larry Brown Detroit Pistons than any other championship team, which is not an exactly modern winning style but with some luck this is still a path. Therefore I would actually entertain the idea of trading for Damien Lillard (our Billups) if the bucks decides to blow up lol
I honestly think Sengun should just do the bare minimum on defense. Regardless of how much we think he’s improved if he gets in foul trouble 9/10 times we’re screwed on offense. There’s simply no one else that can be as consistent and efficient on offense. INCLUDING JALEN.
This is the best content of this year about Houston,thank you man for the show ,all you said are the truth about Houston and i want to add one thing,Udoka has to find effective spots for J.green at offence ,when Jalen is added offence effectively this team becomes real playoff team with Sengun Amen and Tari ..Udoka only needs to find out how to add Consistent effective offence from Jalen green to this Trio
@@codingstyle9480i am a basketball fan from Turkiye and i was telling the same good words for Alperen Tari Amen Trio ,i am sure about them,the thing is Houston have to find a way to add Jalen green to this working system. İ think Jalen should give up shooting silly stepback 3s because its not in his skillset, besides he is really good at attacking the paint ,if he is focused attacking the rim and takes more mid range shots like SGA ,he will have better stats and he will be usefull in this system
@@leventturkan3503 Jalenle malenle olmaz bu iş kardeşim. Bu adamların belirgin bir istikrar sorunu var. Tari de hikaye, Amen de..Alpereni şu takımdan çıkar NBA in en kötü takımı haline gelirler. Bu takımdan bi cacık olmaz.
I like Jabari. He is solid in rebounds and our team is amazing on rebounds this year. If we were punishing open shoots and rebounds properly, I think we would be in top 2 easily. Anyways, I hope our guys are drilling shooting like crazy and Ime is working on our offence strategy.
You deserve praise brother, it's a nice detailed video.Houston's outside shooting and outside zone defense is very bad.I'm curious about your opinion on this subject.
It's good to see the numbers match up with what I'm seeing this far. We're net neutral with Jabari and Fred if hurting us. I wish we'd get some of FVV's shots to Jabari in a couple of dedicated, likely mid post looks.
We drafted all these world class athletes, we’re not built to be a half court team. And when we do run half court sets, it needs to be through Sengun with cutters, not FVV spamming pick and roll and step back 3s. I think Cam would benefit a lot from changing our play style too. Time to trade FVV. He served his purpose and helped when we needed it but it’s time to move to the next phase.
I would love Tari and Amen in the startin five. But I have two concerns: 1) Team will start to struggle again with no proper offensive sets. Opponents surely have a plan just for a starting line up without offensive sets. 2) When the starting five starts to struggle who will come of the bench to fire up the team and make a difference? Fred? Jabari? Reed?
Frank hearing these numbers brought something from my attention, now this is just fresh on my head, but if Jabari and Fred came off the bench. I think that it would be good for Jabari development as Fred can run pick and roll and develop kind of a synergy like he did with alpi. I think Jabari should have spent some time in the G league his first year. His confidence just seems so low and I don’t feel inspired when I’m watching him . Hope he can turn it around.
I agree with the Jabari thing . He just don’t get a lot of consistent opportunities like the other players . He should come off the bench and run some pick&roll/pop with Reed . That would open up the floor more in my opinion and Reed will find him cause all he doing is passing anyways but still a threat from 3
That’s cap. Last game there were MULTIPLE situations where the Rockets passed to him for an open 3, he missed, we got the offensive rebound and they passed it RIGHT BACK to him to shoot again and he STILL missed. This happened multiple times. Stop making excuses for him
We have two teams. Fast pace team and slow pace team. Fred on the court is the slow place team, this can only work well for Alpi; the rest of our team is fast pace stallions. Jabari has always played better with movement and does better in those lineups. Jabari is reduced to sitting in the corner and being the fourth option. How can he get in a rhythm? Jalen is also a rhythm player so let him be the lead ball handler. So I think we should switch Fred for Tari. PG-Jalen, SG-Tari, SF-Dillon, PF-Jabari, C-Alperen. 6th man - Amen. If you need more size - Steven, if you need to slow it down - Fred. If you need more shooting - Reed. The speed and defense need to be our top priority rather than 'turning it over less with Fred' - if youre 0/12 shooting those shots are turnovers. Plus with this line-up we will get way more offensive rebounds than with Fred on the court so fire away. Also Jabari's just looks worse because he is getting swapped for Tari who is literally top 5 in the NBA right now; THE PROBLEM IS FRED!
@@codingstyle9480 I think Alpi is good enough to coexist with the speed demons. If not, we could try a Jalen and Jabari pick and pop? We have tried so few things outside of Fred/Alpi slow motion telegraphed p&r
Green should be coming off the bench. How can any fan say FVV is the problem without mentioning Green who has been one of the least efficient starting guards since entering the league ?
@keroutson Because Fred is old with no ceiling and costs 40 million for ruining the pace of play. Jalen is night and day different based on pace of play
we are what we are at this point. I don't see the team getting better until we add a top 10 or top 15 player. Maybe Amen gets better, but I don't see anyone currently on the roster becoming a top 10 player.
I wouldn’t mind getting another big. Steven Adams so far it looks like the dude lost a step and he still recovering from his injuries. Obviously he not going to play huge minutes in the regular season or the post season. Landale he been hit or miss mostly miss.Your right the center depth is god awful if we can trade for a center I would do that in a heartbeat. Honestly would look at Marvin Bagley. He not getting any minutes with the Wizards and I think Ime can coach him up and bring out the best out of him. In a low risk high reward move. As for another guard, if we are talking about shooting guard…that’s a bit hard to choose if Cam wasn’t so awful he would be the perfect backup to take the load off of Jalen and sometimes Fred. If the rockets want to trade for somebody. I would be cool in getting Jordan Carkson and bring him off the bench. With that said great video Frank
Cam could be a good shooter but does not know how to play basketball. What is on his mind when he gets the basketball is to shoot without considering anything else.
My friend, the biggest problem in the team is that there are bad shooters... There is no problem in the center... The team cannot score 3 points... I think one or two solid shooters should be recruited... Sengun Tari is fine, the rest is a problem
Selam dostlar , ingilizcem yok , yorumları çevirip anlamaya çalışıyorum , benim Alperen ilgili anladığım yorumlar , Alperenin oyununu yavaş ve gelecekte şampiyon olacak kadronun bir parçası olmayacağı anlıyorum , ama pek saygı duyulmadığınıda hissediyorum maalesef.
Please give your thoughts on Reed Shepard, and how Ime is not giving him good chances! Specially, when Vanvleet is struggling, you would imagine more opportunities for Reed.
I kinda think that Green/Alpi Pick n Pop could work wonders for Jalens game.. when they pick n roll most of the time Alpi is clogging the paint and Jalen can’t score. Also Alpi can start shooting more or work of the kick driving which he does well
How far can a team progress with the performance of just one player (Alperen Sengun)? The shooters are doing a truly terrible job. This is the biggest reason why the number of assists is so low. All they do is wait behind the 3-point line and wait for the pass from Sengun. Remove Sengun from this team, the worst team in the NBA by far would be the Houston Rocket. This can't continue like this.
The Rockets need to turn some of the assets they see as core pieces into superstar-level players. Ime isn't a development coach; he wants to win. When he can't achieve what he wants with this roster, we're going to see even worse things. Therefore, the roster needs at least one superstar (like Booker, Giannis, etc.).
More anti-FVV agenda when this team is lost most of the time without him. Jalen & Amen in the backcourt is a recipe for disaster. Those two couldn’t even control the offense against the wizards yesterday lmao
Didn't it take Sengun like 6 games to not suck? Jock and Adams are sharing a small amount of minutes to get up to speed and every time I see Jock pick and roll the guards seem to want to do something else and not even passing when trapped. They don't create their own chances like Sengun except when posting up so the guards should probably involve them more.
Sounds like solid ingredients in bad hands. How come players tend to turn into such ill shooters and become weak in teamplay moreso they r notcorrecting weaknesses dont make sense at all.U gotta have those players locked in a gym for months and make them syncronise their breathings and match their thoughts otherwise u will never get a ring.Currently They are presenting a poor performed show that nobody cares. A merchandise maitntaining self profits and bucks thats why it sucks
Reed Sheppard at PG, Amen Thompson at SF/PF. Amen Thompson I honestly don't know if he can play pick and roll or pick and shot. Setting up offensively is a problem for Amen. Maybe Ime Udoka wants to experiment Amen at PG to see if Amen can play at PG. Reed Sheppard dribbling the ball up the floor, you can see he belongs at PG. Let Reed Sheppard play PG, he looks more comfortable playing PG than SG.
Great video Frank, I cant refute that Marc Gasol analogy, you maybe crrect on that one.. I still believe Sengun biggest challenges will happen in the playoffs... ALP has improved on the defeseive end and i can tell he really tries. I still believe he is 25 minute Center, and the rockets should utilize Bari at the 5 more. Great content
Sengun could be a top "3" center? Are you serious? Top 3 behind who? I recently saw the OKC game and you say this after the Rockets beat the Wizards. Come on Frank. REALLY??? SMH !!!!
Fans like you is a big issue. Sengun is already the best player in the team as well as one of the best center in the NBA. Unfortunately, no matter what he does, he never gets to be appreciated.
Also Frank, I think people, or most people our age and older, fail to understand why the NBA went away from dominant low post BIGS in the first place. 3s or more than 2s, and if your best player takes up more of a team possessions on 2 pt shots then you are in trouble in todays game. Let say Sengun aveages 30 pts a game and for the sake of argument lets say Harden average 30 pts a game.. even though they are both 30, they are not created the same. Sengun team will loose more times than not if he averages 30 vs a Harden team if he averages 30. Why? Guards and some wings can account for more PTS per possession. in lamens terms, Guards and some wings like a lebron archetype and even the new age centers like a Chet or Wemby can do this one thing, and thats create their own 3pt shot. So at any possession Harden can account for more pts because he can 1.assist for 2 or 3 pts, 2.draw foul or score 2 pts, or 3 create his own 3 pt shot. Where Sengun only can assist or score 2pt shot... Now you take that data and scale up 15-50 possesions each time a one of those players have the ball. In most cases Harden team wins. Sengun can shoot 60% from the 2, and take up most of the team possessions, and all Harden need or a player that can create his own 3 needs to shoot is 40% off less POSSESSIONS.
@@DJ.Generation while we sit up and have all the offensive struggles, can’t get the ball in the hoop at long periods of time. Face it, we’re a defensive team. Harden even at his laziest can still get carried by the defensive core we have. And we would be able to score. This team is so good defensively, having harden isn’t a liability
Your not comparing apples with apples. Lets put adams in the starting 5 and Sengun with the others. What happens when a particular lineup has bad runs etc. Who fiights back etc.
What happens when there is a bad run is not how you look at statistics, therefore it is called statistics, you will add all information from 11 games and come to a conclusion, these bad runs evens out.
I don't know what you are talking about,he got what 40 points wemby, last year so you think this man is going to take a back seat to another player, you really don't know what you are talking about, yes he came in out of shape, but how many players coming in out of shape have you played ball before?
First of all, your analysis is fantastic. I just want to point that out. But there’s something I’m curious about. You put Şengün at the top of the 'Hard to Sub' list, and I agree he belongs there! But here's the thing: when we compare the total minutes played by the starting five over the first 10 games, Alperen has the fewest. Is that normal?
Fred : 355

They don't create their own chances like Sengun except when posting up so the guards should probably involve them more.
Sounds like solid ingredients in bad hands. How come players tend to turn into such ill shooters and become weak in teamplay moreso they r notcorrecting weaknesses dont make sense at all.U gotta have those players locked in a gym for months and make them syncronise their breathings and match their thoughts otherwise u will never get a ring.Currently They are presenting a poor performed show that nobody cares. A merchandise maitntaining self profits and bucks thats why it sucks
Reed Sheppard at PG, Amen Thompson at SF/PF.
Amen Thompson I honestly don't know if he can play pick and roll or pick and shot.
Setting up offensively is a problem for Amen. Maybe Ime Udoka wants to experiment Amen at PG to see if Amen can play at PG.
Reed Sheppard dribbling the ball up the floor, you can see he belongs at PG. Let Reed Sheppard play PG, he looks more comfortable playing PG than SG.
Great video Frank, I cant refute that Marc Gasol analogy, you maybe crrect on that one.. I still believe Sengun biggest challenges will happen in the playoffs... ALP has improved on the defeseive end and i can tell he really tries. I still believe he is 25 minute Center, and the rockets should utilize Bari at the 5 more. Great content
Sengun could be a top "3" center? Are you serious? Top 3 behind who? I recently saw the OKC game and you say this after the Rockets beat the Wizards. Come on Frank. REALLY??? SMH !!!!
Fans like you is a big issue. Sengun is already the best player in the team as well as one of the best center in the NBA. Unfortunately, no matter what he does, he never gets to be appreciated.
Put Eason over brooks
Also Frank, I think people, or most people our age and older, fail to understand why the NBA went away from dominant low post BIGS in the first place. 3s or more than 2s, and if your best player takes up more of a team possessions on 2 pt shots then you are in trouble in todays game. Let say Sengun aveages 30 pts a game and for the sake of argument lets say Harden average 30 pts a game.. even though they are both 30, they are not created the same. Sengun team will loose more times than not if he averages 30 vs a Harden team if he averages 30. Why? Guards and some wings can account for more PTS per possession. in lamens terms, Guards and some wings like a lebron archetype and even the new age centers like a Chet or Wemby can do this one thing, and thats create their own 3pt shot. So at any possession Harden can account for more pts because he can 1.assist for 2 or 3 pts, 2.draw foul or score 2 pts, or 3 create his own 3 pt shot. Where Sengun only can assist or score 2pt shot... Now you take that data and scale up 15-50 possesions each time a one of those players have the ball. In most cases Harden team wins. Sengun can shoot 60% from the 2, and take up most of the team possessions, and all Harden need or a player that can create his own 3 needs to shoot is 40% off less POSSESSIONS.
We should trade for Harden
Yes trade Alp
@ I think it should be Jalen. Alpi and harden would be a nightmare
Hell no!
Harden in Houston is over.
Ime don’t want his lazy slow ass on this team.
Let it go bro
@@DJ.Generation while we sit up and have all the offensive struggles, can’t get the ball in the hoop at long periods of time. Face it, we’re a defensive team. Harden even at his laziest can still get carried by the defensive core we have. And we would be able to score. This team is so good defensively, having harden isn’t a liability
Your not comparing apples with apples. Lets put adams in the starting 5 and Sengun with the others. What happens when a particular lineup has bad runs etc. Who fiights back etc.
What happens when there is a bad run is not how you look at statistics, therefore it is called statistics, you will add all information from 11 games and come to a conclusion, these bad runs evens out.
I don't know what you are talking about,he got what 40 points wemby, last year so you think this man is going to take a back seat to another player, you really don't know what you are talking about, yes he came in out of shape, but how many players coming in out of shape have you played ball before?
Bro who hurt you 😂 the man can’t make a simple observation got damn lol
