    I don’t see any reason for negativity. First basketball in like a year right? I have been wanting a player with a consistent floater.

    We need to lower Harden and Paul's minutes and i think he can help us with that.

    I look forward to seeing a knight, gordon back court. Being able to rest both Harden and Paul at the same time would be amazing.

    He will be competing with MCW for court time.

    Competition is excellent for team.

    May the best man win.

    I don't even need to see Knight play.

    He wins.

    I just realized Knight was an 8th overall pick, quite the fall.

    MCW - 11th pick

    He looked fine for a guy who hasn't played in two years.

    Assuming he regains his health it would be shocking if he doesn't get much better in the next few weeks. He looks like he can be one of the better 4th guards in the league. What do you expect? An All Star?

    Sort of reminds me of when we got Eric Gordon or signed Capela. You always have the boo birds. I guess.

    If Knight can give the Rockets 5 to 10 minutes a night of competent ball handling and facilitation of the offense it’s a huge game changer for this team just by what it means for Harden and CP3.

    I see nothing in his debut tonight that makes me less optimistic about the chances of getting that much needed backcourt relief.

    I'm happy for the guy regardless, his shot looks already solid, i hope he can help us in one way or another.

    He certainly is more talented and tougher than MCW. He looked pretty good for the Vipers. A cut above them all. Knight needs more practice and better fitness. I expect him to join the Rockets fairly soon, if he continues to play well. Go Brandon Go! We need you!

    He didn’t look good for his first game back, he looked FANTASTIC.

    A couple weeks down there and he is going to give the Rockets unbelievable CP3 insurance.
