Examples of Jalen Green's on/off numbers this season

Asked Rafael Stone about lineup data that suggests the Rockets have been better without Jalen Green this season:

"That's a really flawed question. There's great data that we have and we use. I can make data say whatever I want it to say. We heavily use it, but we're careful."

Asked Ime Udoka about Amen Thompson not finishing as a finalist for DPOY:

"Take this snub and use it as motivation."

Jackson Gatlin @jtgatlin.bsky.social · Apr 20

Ime Udoka is a Coach of the Year finalist.

Amen Thompson is NOT a Defensive Player of the Year finalist.

Amen Thompson will be re-evaluated in a week, per Ime Udoka.

Jackson Gatlin @jtgatlin.bsky.social · Feb 22

Jalen had nine free throw attempts tonight, but could have EASILY had 15+ attempts with multiple no-calls throughout the night.

He continues to get one of the worst whistles in the entire league on drives. It's ridiculous.

Jackson Gatlin @jtgatlin.bsky.social · Feb 22

Jalen Green attempted nine free throws tonight (6-of-9 shooting, nice) on his way to 35 points.

Fun stat: Rockets are now 12-4 when Jalen attempts six or more free throws.

Across those 16 games he's averaging 26.1 ppg.

Asked Ime Udoka the differences in Reed Sheppard being around the team vs with RGV:

"We needed to get him live game reps. It's a tough one because he's better than the G League. Have to find that balance. It's also invaluable for him to be around our guys. Learn the NBA."

Jackson Gatlin @jtgatlin.bsky.social · Jan 30

Alperen Sengun has been named a Western Conference All-Star.

He is the first homegrown #Rockets All-Star since Yao Ming.

James Harden, in his PRIME, would sub out with 1-2 minutes left (sometimes the entire first) and then come back with 7-8 left in the second.

We've literally seen Alpi gas out at the end of halves/games without rest, Ime is preventing that.

Like, what are we even doing here?

Jackson Gatlin @jtgatlin.bsky.social · Jan 29

Ime Udoka subbing out Alperen Sengun with 3-4 minutes in the first and bringing him back with 6-7 minutes in the second is just simple minutes management for a star player on a B2B, ESPECIALLY one who's role is as taxing as Alpi's being the offensive hub AND defensive anchor.
