no they didnt… jc wasnt that good in the summer league…the whole grimes is better than jc debate started in the summer league…
jc summer league stats werent that good either, he had good counting stats but was shooting 28% from 3… duence had better stats, and 43% from 3
jalen isnt ealry jordan. and he is an alpha… so is kpj… why would grimes need to be early jordan… this is the defintion of a straw man
weve seen a 12 gaame samplse size (25 if you include games where older knicks players were injured)… he has dominanted in all of them… he as shown when he plays with his peers he shines… the entire rockets are his peers…
your counter points make no sense… selfish rockets… the knicks are just as bad… top playrs had their usage go down… that happens to every knicks player except maybe Brunson… nothing you said logically counters anything
In 1984, Portland supposedly offered to trade the #2 pick and Clyde Drexler to the Rockets in exchange for Ralph Sampson, but Houston declined. Just imagine Hakeem, MJ and Clyde on the same team.
yeah, i disagree… grimes is the kind of player coaches and teammated love… imo the rockets have too many onball players, grimes with green & sengun works … grimes has a nack for getting his teammates respect …
the clash you are seeing would only make sense is grimes was ball dominant… he isnt … he plays a small klay thompson role …
thibs is one of te pickest coaches in the nation… he is riding insanely hard for grimes… the knicks turned down a donovan mitchell trade for grimes … his d and rebounding would have seen him on the floor, when he would arguably be the best on the rockets… i see a very clear picture of how it could work because grimes doesnt overlap other rockets …quickly is probably worse than kpj in being unselfish, and both still scored 36+ with the starters out, in a win…
when the full roster is in he becomes the “defense” guy… his dominant stretch was because rj barret and jalen brunson were both dealing with injuries … the full roster is playing for the playoff
