    Pelicans should trade Zion while they can. Just don't believe he'll ever be in shape and be healthy and right now they could probably fleece some team for him.

    Not a great game for McCollum. Not that much of a factor for such an important game.

    Dort scores 4-5 ppg more than Tate on average.

    I know it is incredible.

    I was thinking of the Hornets or something!

    I think Zion is a fantastic player...when he plays...which is barely.

    Watching the Thunder should make you feel bad about drafting Green and Smith ahead of Josh Giddey and Jalen Williams.

    If you're still whining about the fired coach you just.. don't get it

    I recall the Thunder wanted to draft Green but we saved them from themselves. Oh well.

    Stone drafted enough talent. Silas is an ass coach. EVERYONE was playing out of position. Silas didnt even run plays. waited to run pnr plays between Jalen and kpj until asst coaches pleaded with him. Bari has an unstoppable post jumper never put it in the offense. Sengun is our play-maker didnt want him to have the ball. Silas screwed the Rockets so much..

    Rockets dont have a shai but they do have MORE talent than OKC.

    Zion makes Yao and TMac look like ironmen. What a night, BI really channeled his inner KD but damn the Thunder have such a good young core. They’re without Chet still too.

    And for as trash as the Rockets are, at least we’ve never lost to a 9 year old girl.

    Tate - on average - wears a sweatshirt and high 5s people during timeouts as his sole contribution this year.

    They actually don’t. They have better players and more experience.

    Last time fostered 3 MVPs while the Rockets were toying with TSquid, Terrence Jones, Royce White, Jeremy Lamb, Parsons and such.

    At least had Dmo.

    And that’s the type of relevant experience from relevant players that goes a long way. And both have already been in the actual postseason. And shai is probably going to be an all nba player this year. Whose already an all star. Clearly he’s that type of player who impacts winning at a significant level. Giddey is clearly talented and so are the Williams frontcourt. Rockets don’t match up with this at all

    I think that we get there eventually with a competent head coach and an efficient playmaker.
