Yes to your conclusion in that first paragraph. I think Rockets fans in particular have this conception that for our own players, "trade value"...
Rockets fans have to be the only fanbase where the fake trades are all sell lows on our own players and assets. There really is a chronically...
How could anyone possibly watch us play and think what we need is another defensive role player who can't dribble or create offense?
I think when the three "on-ball" frp's you select (out of ten frp's in 4 years) are guys who were known pre-draft to have underdeveloped ball...
Come on, respect you, but this is hyperbolic pessimism. The Spurs are 18 points better with Wemby on the floor in the playoffs. That number was...
People are really conflating two separate topics on Stone/Udoka: One is whether we are currently committed to being a "contender" or are we still...
IMO way too much preoccupation here with getting into the 5-10 range of this year's draft. That a) never happens, and b) is not where the value...
Stone did generate a huge number of shots, that's totally right. But that's in the past tense. For some reason we have stopped. Our last shot was...
It's really quite hard to argue a case against Stone transactionally, if you're evaluating in a principled way compared to the league's other GMs....
The Celtics want to sell high on Jaylen Brown because the Celtics are smart and they know Jaylen Brown is not nearly as good as his reputation or...
The goal is not just to create offense. 100-200 guys in the league can create offense. The goal is to create good offense. There are only a small...
Yes, this is precisely my point. Swap out Ime for Erik Spoelstra. Swap out Rafael Stone for Sam Presti. Swap out Fertitta for whoever you think...
Tearing down a team is the easy part. We will probably do some strategic step back this summer and trade one or both of KD/Sengun, competently....
Here's one I could see: Hou in: Derrick White Sam Hauser Pick #27 Bos in: Kevin Durant Derrick White had a terribly down shooting year and a...
Not picking on you, but one of my least favorite obsessions in Rockets fandom is Kel'el Ware. The guy has never played hard, been a positive...
OKC played small most of the game. Hartenstein played 12 minutes. Daigneault sat him down because playing a non shooter allows Wemby to camp...
The KD trade market will be there. Detroit, Minnesota, Golden State, Toronto all certainly would be willing to part with real stuff for him, for...
If you watch some full games, Okorie is a plus guard defender. Would not be concerned on that end at all. Moves his feet super well, understands...
In my humble opinion, the best guard in the class hasn’t even been mentioned here. It’s Ebuka Okorie. There’s a strong case based on the...
Whether Amen gets $35M or $40M AAV, he is still going to be on a much "worse" contract going forward than he has been, just by nature of no longer...
