    Let's remember when we get the lottery results next week, it was these guys putting in the hard work being terrible that got us here.

    If they had lived up to the hype AT ALL, we'd have no chance at the top pick at all.

    It's more KPJ & Silas than anything else, one is gone, the other needs to go too

    So, in your mind, the reason the team was bad was due to the most consistently good player on the roster and a feckless coach rather than 2 of the worst performing players on the roster who were forced into the starting lineup despite being awful?

    Well, that's certainly one kind of take.

    Funniest part:
    Green: "I had an orchard in my backyard."
    Smith: "A what?"
    Green; "A bunch of trees."

    If the self proclaimed head honcho played like Brunson did tonight for 40-45 games then they wouldn't be in this top pick position, I mean that is what the best guard on teams do right? Just asking/speaking from experience

    The rockets didn't jerk him around did they? Nope, they gave him keys to the house/car and open reign to do whatever on the court, Silas let that be known off top to the extreme, at first they even gave him lob threat privilege over the better player(sengun) to appease the HNIC, I mean the head honcho

    One player can't make up for 2 scrubs as detrimental to the team as Jalen and Jabari were last season.

    He did his part as the most consistently good player on the entire roster, but unfortunately the Rockets just lacked talent. Hopefully they get this upcoming draft right to make up for the last 2.

    Clutchfans love scrubs.

    Head, Sura, Jermaine Taylor, GG the first time around, Ariza the first time around, Morris, Budinger, merging players together like "Scolandry" to pretend they are on-par to an all-star player, Jeremy freakin Lin ...

    Once again you can't comprehend and must never played any meaning basketball in your life

    Never said one player can make up for lack of mates showing up, just as Brunson showcased against Heat, but he showed out, so that's what I Am saying about your hero and so called most consistent or best guard or whatever cliche label you might make up next week

    The way you talk about the scrubs around him, the head honcho avg 30+ ppg, that would be doing his part and picking up the slack because that is what the best guard/players on the team usually do

    Brunson dropped 40 and his support caste played like scrubs, and I think Randle was an all star this past season and he scrubbed it up as a veteran

    Its why I said IF the head honcho played like Brunson or played like or near the level outside of that one game (hit record) wonder where he dropped 50 piece against what was an elite Bucks team defense, pretty sure he could have done that quite a bit this past season since he had the keys to the entire compound

    Or did the Rockets jerk him around like the Cavs did? Was he in and out the rotation or did the head honcho have carte blanche status to showcase his ungodly like hardwood game?

    C'mon bobby, enlighten me

    The only way you won't throw a diatribe on this upcoming player drafted is if they choose who you personally want, then you will brown nose captain save for that selection

    So tell us, who is your said franchise player in this draft?

    Also hopefully Stone upgrades his trade portfolio and gets one right, so at least his draft and trade moves are on par, all misses no surefire hits

    Just using your criteria for both sides of the coin....its a beautiful thing

    So the concept that guys who objectively performed well not being capable of making up for high minutes, high usage scrubs is over your head?

    Interesting.

    The only addition is the next #1 pick Victor Wembanyama.
