    we need to start him TBH - The games he was sent down last year due to (LTS) :rolleyes: may have avoided the Warriors in round 2 for us... We need him to develop this year unlike last year where we purposely stunted his growth...

    I honestly thought he was walking this off season after that streak of play. He would be gone if he didn't no show for the playoffs.

    It paid off for the Rockets too, we avoided the lux tax.

    Daryl Morey plucking Dan House out of nowhere is going to go down as one of his greatest moves.

    This signing is looking even better now that we got Westbrook....he's one of the few who can really get out in transition....

    This signing is going to be great when he shows promise again, but not enough to start him over Gordon, so we trade him, Nene, filler contracts and a 1st for Covington.

    I don't see how we are able to showcase him enough without starting him. Gordon I think will play well with either harden or westbrook but not both, which is why I think him going back to the 6th man role would be best. starting house gives us size, adds an role player who does not need the ball and makes our bench stronger with Gordon coming in as 6th man.

    westbrook, harden, house, tucker, capella is a pretty solid line up with bench of Gordon, rivers, chandler?,anderson as primary players off the bench

    With Westbrook on the floor, we need Gordon's range shooting desperately. He is also a much stronger defender than Dan.

    he isn't getting showcased regardless. he's here to fill in the gaps here and there and be a contributor in whatever way the team needs him to be. if he understand that, things should work out. if not, and he doesn't understand the little things that needs to be done like he displayed in the playoffs, hell be back on the bench without pt

    I am really looking forward to seeing his progression this year. One of my favorite young players in the league.

    House needs to start, we need his height in the lineup.

    Eric Gordon provides a far more physical presence on both ends.

    I like House, but he looks like Tarzan and plays like Jane. It's akin to saying we need Gerald Green out there for height. (The height is useless If they don't use it...)

    Hopefully he learns to use it, though.

    We offered him a contract. He thought he was worth more, in spite of being cut by multiple teams his whole career. Negotiations happened.

    He's here now. Time to move on. Hope it's true that he was not himself in the playoffs due to lingering injuries. If he breaks out this year it would be huge for the team.

    House might can give Lebron a serious run for his money.

    House could take turn spot in Olympics for sure if tucker had a legit shot at Olympics!
