    Hopefully we get a big in the draft or someone who is so good in the post that it distracts the other teams biggest players. My biggest concern is pg and how long they are going to go wtih this KPJ at point thing.

    Our best rookie is a big, he's also our best passer.

    Right now KPJ is by far the best guard to technically play PG, but let's face it, Sengun is the guy who creates ball movement and scoring opportunities more so than anyone else.

    I don't think there's any reason to move off of KPJ, he's been our best guard this season and while sure, he's more of a SG, Green can't play the SF because he's too weak, he can't play the PG because he's not even as good at it as KPJ and I HIGHLY doubt you want your favorite player coming off the bench.

    I think in the draft we might look at a big so that we can flip Wood who is a bit old for the Rockets timeline, but really they should go BPA because they don't have a franchise caliber player.

    honestly senguns problem is nowhere near lacking in size
    its just the coaching and even even despite coaching he is on his way to being a great player and rockets a great team

    His upside isn't a franchise caliber player, never was, that doesn't mean he can't or won't be a very good player.

    We need a BIG...that can block shots and length in the offense trenched. we should not wait for the draft. We need young talent now so we can play with our young talent....I have the perfect BIG: someone who is tall but agile to defends small players, Can hit the 3's and also block any shot in the paint. The team is getting better but we need Porter, Green, Martin, Wood to play with this guy for a year. WE NEED:

    MO BAMBA

    He need to trade for him and he needs to play with our young team. Jonathan Issacs is their future BIG man with Carter and Wagner in Orlando, they do not need Mo Bamba. This is his last year and they are not going to sign him this year. He have our future Point Guard and Shooting Guard, not sure about Wood but Sengun and Mo bamba would be great for our future. He would be very important to us. He needs to come back to TEXAS!!!

    I didnt say anything about Sengun though. We need another big. Even the Suns realized they needed another big thats why they got Mcgee.

    We've learned not to question DaDakota

    He wears special height googles.....come in handy at the cantina or sports bar.

    Double as shot glasses.

    Wood playing Center is not bad. I really just don't like we incorporated a back to the basket game again with him and Sengun. He needs to just roll to that rim and hard or catch and shoot which he can do. He did that alot last year and was great.

    Rockets seem to need a 6'10 elite All Star All Defense defender AS WELL AS a reliable playmaker, who just so happens to be on the trade market?
