    Looks like we'll need to wait for next year to get our anchor down low to make the Mobley mob Less Misérables

    Well, yeah. Everyone should be pissed if the Rockets blow the pick on a backup guard when the need is for a big and there are 3 bigs better than any guard.....and they have the 3rd pick.

    There's no scenario where ANY guard should even be in consideration.

    Doesn't Orlando have certain athletic and size "requirements" when drafting big men? Would Chet meet those?

    a full escort plus concierge service to the rim…Rockets going nowhere as long as they continue to be an abomination defensively

    We definitely have to do our due diligence.

    If Sharpe is really THAT guy in workouts. A convo needs to be had.

    If we are bad again next year I want him and can't put faith in getting #1 overall so hopefully he does fall.

    I don't know though, none of those guys scream #1 option, too many passive dudes.

    I kind of hope OKC has the same thinking and goes Paolo, I actually think he'd be a nice fit with so many pass first players on that team he could soak up a lot of usage and shots.

    I don't know if Chet is that good of a fit for them, they need another reliable shot creator outside of Shai.

    Weirder things have happened.

    Nothing settled until actual draft happens.

    Also outside chance Stone trades up to get his man.

    Knowing my luck, Stone trades up to draft Banchero. :mad:
