+/- can be deceiving in small sample sizes. Javele's presence on the floor gives Houston an extra body to sag off in the paint and discourage AD/Bron driving lanes. On defense, any shot blocking he typically gives is negated by the rockets just putting him in pick and roll and pulling him away from the rim. centers are less comfortable rotating around the perimeter to shooters so there's a couple of more open 3s that didn't exist before. he can be effective in spurts, but it's advantage houston if javale or dwight play any significant minutes.
