    @J.R. let's get the man a better video. The one you just posted doesn't give it any justice.

    Defense is just night and day from last year. It’s that type of focus that could land us in the play in.

    Everyone is looking good. Martin or Eason need to start and get the bulk of the minutes at forward with Jabari. Tate, Gordon, Nix and Mathews just need to go.

    TyTy needs the backup minutes. Just cut Nix.

    I live in the US, but have used International LP the last 2 years without issue until so far this preseason and never had the need to contact them for anything…before that I used subscriptions with ballstreams and hehestreams

    Lol like the Admiral comparison I don’t see this one either. Rodman was a great defender and the most energetic, persistent, and skilled rebounder I ever saw. But his ball handling was awkward and his 3 was nonexistent. Eason has a solid shot, more fluid ball handler and not nearly as good defender or rebounder.

    On a side note, bit of a nightmare game from Scottie Barnes tonight. I won't be surprised if this was his worse game in his whole career.

    He's closer to Rodman (which I think is insane) then anything you compare your hero KPJ to

    Just about to go on an unfollow spree on Twitter... all these self proclaimed Rockets experts acting like having an entertaining and competitive young team is a bad thing because it will ruin our already slim chances of getting Wemby. Then there's a section of "rockets twitter" that still stans for Christian Wood.

    What a bunch of goobers

    low key I think Boban is annoyed with this kind of reception. This doesn't feel like appreciation (to me) it feel like they are cheering for an attraction at the circus. I dont know... feels crummy to me. I wouldn't want to be a meme player.

    dont get me wrong, I would def get paid to be a meme player, im just saying.

    I think the Dennis Rodman comparison has to do with Eason's ability to just find the seams and go and get the ball. And maybe he's a "better" version because he's got some offensive skills to boot.

    But Lucas seems to be waxing nostalgic about his Spurs days recently. Since Eason compares with Rodman and Smith compares with the Admiral's demeanor, maybe TyTy Washington is Houston's version of Doc Rivers.

    Now, the Rockets need to just tank for a year and get themselves the second coming of Tim Duncan. :D
