    He could be dominant in a lower league.

    He should do that.

    Rockets really need a player like him... that is legit NBA level good.

    Le sigh

    Yeah man, i had a lot of hope for him a year ago and thought he had potential, but he hasn't seemed to put it together yet. He was better early last year.

    Why do you think this would take a large toll on his body? It looks relatively low impact to me in basketball terms. (as in, crappy old knees might struggle, but with healthy knees etc why not?)

    Uhh, well eventually I think it might cause some knee problems, landing on one knee that many times may be tough no? But who knows Im not a doctor haha.

    Clemons decision making is suspect, Chuck's way too much.

    Ponds looks like he has the most potential. He could be like a Lou Williams, he already looks polished. Just need to be more assertive and confident

    harden shouldnt be thinking about load management during the preseason. but I agree morey and mda need to have a load management strategy for harden in the regular season especially near the playoffs and harden needs to abide by it no questions asked.

    From the stats sheet, Ponds did what Lou Will didn't do - not scoring a bucket.

    j/k Ponds has ways to go to become Lou. I dun see a Lou or Jamal Crawford clone in the NBA right now - maybe Carsen Edwards, the Celtic?!

    Lou is very skinny, all those thiccer smaller guards popping up.

    McLemor and Clemons’s are pretty much locks to get two spots . Clemons will develop into a really good backup after a season in the G league and Ben is already better then Gerald as a two way player

    Yeah, i'm a bit disappointed with Hartenstein too, expected more by him, he still moves like a rookie out there. But he's still very young...in comparison, it took three years to D.Mo to be able to make the rotation so, i wouldn't call Hartenstein a failure yet.

    Mmm I don’t think T Jones is with the team and Luc was going to be on the camp but didn’t last minute. Ryan is still with the team but didn’t play tonight and didn’t score or shoot much last game.

    Team looks good, very fast pace compare to last year, except they’re still a bit rusty.
