    Certainly, you understand right.

    it is incumbent upon us to reflect on the extent of time and resources we have dedicated to Jalen as the second pick so we must entrust him with the key responsibilities of a featured cornerstone. It would be imprudent to prematurely forsake our commitment to him in lieu of opting for a pick of a lesser tier.

    Hey One and @OnlyRockets CLOWNFISH! I am attaching a link from Harvard folks studying the NBA drafts but I don't know if your tiny little bean will compute ****...There is nothing wrong with supporting your favorite player but don't do it by trying to **** on all others, including "#28." Do us a favor, just quit being the ass of the Rockets fandom!

    Hey dummy, allocation of resources favors Alp. Trading two unrealized firsts for the pick that resulted in Sengun says as much.
    See what ChatGPT says about that

    Everyone seems to skip over the bit where we could've hung onto those two first-round picks to snag a top 5 player...

    That is looking like a pretty unmovable contract right now. He was having a down season and now he's hurt. If he was healthy and playing up to his usual standards there would probably be some interest.

    Except they got a potential top 5 player in Alp. And the best player from his draft class. Him and Green could end up the top two from that class.

    All right, you were amusing for a couple of days, Mr. Troll Alt Account, but welcome to the ignore list and please go away so I don't have to read other people replying to your comments either

    Is this because I disagree with that ridiculous take??? Not welcoming at all.

    Most of the league. Sorry, you’re just not on the intelligent side on this subject.

    No, it’s because you’re a troll. Real rockets fans don’t try and drive a wedge between the fan base. Alp/Bari/Green are the core. Most likely in that order

    I assert my privilege to maintain personal viewpoints, just as you are entitled to yours. Real Rockets fans shouldn't impute the character of their peers with baseless accusations of trolling...

    I encourage an elevation of conduct befitting respectful discourse.

    You aren’t a Rockets fan. You’re a worthless troll. So I have no interest in respectful conversation.

    Regardless of your personal viewpoint, its significance to me is immaterial. However, it is crucial that you master the art of engaging with others courteously. Cultivating oneself into a person of integrity and respect is of far greater importance than an unwavering allegiance to any conceptual fandom, buddy...

    Sorry, I don’t take moral advice from someone whose sole purpose is creating division.
    Truth and defending that truth is more important than keeping civilities with an obvious troll.

    I am going to join you. I hardly ever ignore posters, but this troll is derailing every thread. Please forum fans join us in ignoring this guy until he goes away.
