    Those are Bell's highlights and Capela is at least 10x more hyper on average.. Can you imagine Capela's rebounding and blocking highlight reel?

    It's crazy Wood is only 24 yrs old was he like 15 when the Rox got him? It seemed like ages ago I thought he'd be 29 by now kinda like RoCo.

    Anyway I liked Wood when he was here thought we got a major steal cuz he was projected 1st round but went undrafted. IIRC he seemed extremely immature though which is why he got cut. Hopefully he is much better this time.

    He would be perfect. Doesn't need more than 25 MPG and provides spacing and size. BraBra has been really good but with the center search for the Rockets he seems to be unsure but wants to please us as we wait with bated breath.

    tbh "Incoming Christian Wood" seems like the title to some obscure p*rn from the late 90s...

    Hope we can get him though! He's also improved his game a lot since his Rocket days.

    Rockets seem pretty good at identifying talented players needing development, the problem is they always take so long development that they bloom elsewhere. Covington, Wood, Carroll, Lin, and time will tell on De'Anthony Melton.

    Yeah, I don't understand why people always complain that our front office isn't good at drafting...and yes I know they're a minority, but it still makes me sad. We've consistently managed to do well in the late first/second round when it comes to players, even if they don't always end up playing for us.

    If anything I think our player development could be better. Though we did develop Brooks, Capela, maybe Terrence Jones, Parsons and Zhou Qi :cool: into being solid starters for a while at least. There are probably others too that I'm missing off the top of my head.

    BraBra is the real deal. The best insider i've ever seen come out of nowhere. This is bizarre.

    It's like he is bugging every front office in the league.

    We can’t have Christian Wood. That would be unfair to the rest of the league.

    If Detroit won't trade Christian Wood to the city of wood grain wheels, they do not respect Wood.

    Nothing like morning wood but time to get to work.

    Let's pick up Jonah Bolden and Nerlens Noel and call it a day.

    3 long switch defenders over 6'8.

    Bruno - 6'9 7'7 wingspan
    Jonah - 6'9 7'3 wingspan
    Nerlens - 6'10 7'5 wingspan

    Morey make this happen!!!!

    Would love for the Rockets to sign words. Yes, he’s playing well and I think he would fit the Rockets system. He’s 6’10” and can shoot the three at a pretty good percentage.
