    Man this has been one of the best post nba finals/pre nfl seasons I can remember. Astros dominating, again, Women's world cup, The Kawhi Maneuver, Russell's Rules, this wimbledon, coco, (fed vs. nadal in the morning, gotta get some sleep!), LeBron drawing the short straw haw haw haw... top shelf and just keeps getting better, enjoy the ride.

    some solid wing defenders(Covington, Iggy) would be nice. Also, a PF or center that can actually rebound

    KLove will do it. But if we can’t do that, Iggy and one of Koufas/Mejri/Faried for backup mins.

    Literally didn't see that until now, but that's cool. I just thought I'd share what I heard..... absolutely no reason to be a dick.

    We maybe shore up our front court/oversized wing...

    .... or #flexibility going into the trade deadline. Wouldn't be too disappointed if we ended up staying pat until the trade deadline. I'm curious to give G-League finals MVP Hartenstein a real chance at backup C.

    Tyson Chandler and Justin Holiday would be nice if we are only able to bargain shop.

    Covington would be an amazing and maybe Rosas would be inclined to deal with us.

    I like the idea of adding Holiday to this squad.

    Are you sure? I thought once the prior years draft is completed you can trade the immediate next years pick if you wanted. You just can’t trade consecutive future years 1st within the same year. I.e you could trade ‘19 1st but not 20 until after the draft.

    Pretty sure that’s why they traded 24 and 26. It fits the cadence. (20, 22, 24, 26). Could be wrong but that’s what my Understanding was.

    What exceptions do the Rockets have left and who are the best fit) (to what I assume will be Nash/Barbosa full speed ahead offense)?

    What can the Rockets offer to get Iggy.

    Wouldn’t mind Nene or Faried on the bench, still could a strong second or third option

    You aren’t wrong. I was. Because the 2019 draft has passed and the Rockets will have a 2021 first-round pick, they can trade their 2020 first-round pick. At this point and time, they can trade their 2020, 2022 and 2028 first-round picks.

    Get another big in center or power forward and upgrade small forward position.

    K love, Howard
    Rudy gay, Iggy
