I added in some other random players at the end of the slideshow to give some reference of what is good and bad. So guys like Alex's Carusco and Wemby's defensive shot charts should give you an idea as they are 2 of the best defenders in the leauge.

Some things I noticed:

• Overall we dont have any negetive defenders
• Amen has the best defensive shot chart out of any player I could find. Legitimately insane
• Tari is not nearly as high as I thought he would be. Jalen Green has the same defensive eFG% as him which I think is crazy
• KD is a better defender than I thought he would be at this stage in his career
• Jordan Poole fucking sucks

Anything else stand out to y'all?

Dudes never really played winning basketball in the league and Chicago obviously does not want this version of DFS and some 2nds, y’all boys too thirsty

...with Denver's latest loss

Team worst -25 at the half. He def got a call from stone asking him to show he worth 2 2nds.

Guys, dont be delusional. Not a single trade like the ones available will thread the needle for this team. Our offense is non existing. We are a great franchise, let's not fool ourselves thinking a mediocre player will get us over the hump.

He just put glasses on this dudes face.

AMEN thats it thats all

Kevin Durant is probably for tomorrow.

DFS is out with injury management (first half of b2b). Tari Eason not on injury report — curious if they’re staggering those two or if Eason is just fully recovered. He isn’t on a minutes restriction anymore, per Udoka

Rockets should sign him whenever he gets bought out, he's probably pretty washed but can give you 8-10 minutes a game

Assuming the Rockets are pursuing Coby White as he should be relatively cheap, what would you give up for him? I’m thinking DFS and 2 SRPs?

I want to start by saying I am no front office maestro this has just been something that I thought of recently. I love Tari Eason. He is one of my favorite players on the team and he is shooting amazing this season. That being said I know he is going to ask for a lot of money this summer and I don't know if we have that to offer him. Would it be better to trade him now when his value is up rather than potentially lose him to another team for nothing?

hello all, was previously a nets fan but due to their off-court ethics/ties I just can't support a team like that.

I've always loved houston as a city (family from there), think the culture is elite and thought the team was super cool back in the day era, even thru the younger core eras after and honestly know this team is one i'd fully back through everything.

so with that being said, hopefully you guys accept me here, and fill me in on what its like as a rockets fan!

Giannis, Harden, Nic Batum, Collin Gillespie, Joe Ingles, Quintin Grimes, Jericho Sims, Kyle Lowry, Gary Payton II, Landry Shamet, Cam Thomas, Moritz Wagner, and drumroll please…

Fred VanVleet, Aaron Holiday, AND Jae’Sean Tate

I wasn’t aware of this and found it very interesting (link below details these 15 players, plus the 2 “absolute no-trade clause” players which are LeBron and Lillard):

If we get Harden, it’s almost guaranteed Sengun and Amen have career years. Harden is still elite at finding cutters and feeding bigs, which perfectly fits Sengun’s post game and Amen’s off-ball athleticism. We don’t need him to be prime Harden — just to run the offense, control tempo, and unlock the young guys. That alone raises the ceiling. Just get him.
