    A rough diamond is basically a worthless hard rock.

    As long as he’s not two years away from being two years away I like him. Also I hope he’s put his personal problems behind him too, and if all goes well he’ll maybe be a solid rotation piece.

    Rodion Kurucs is the key to a championship formula. There I said it.

    I think he gonna surprise a lot of guys he wont be the next superstar but I expect him to fight for one of the starter forward positions. Since we moved on from Harden we might as well move on from his boy Danuel House.

    6'9 SF that rebounds the F out of the ball.

    Few thought he would be natural complement to Harden last season.

    He is the triple threat type of player that Silas seems to covet.

    I kept trying to figure out what this dude is about after the trade ... then found out he was drafted 2nd round 40th pick. Yeah, right, rough indeed.

    Pairing a stretch 4 like Kurucs next to Harden is a dream come true. Look out Lakers.
