What if we just signed Draymond Green next season?

    Would be hilarious to watch those two on offense without steph. Could we break 90?

    If the other team only scores 89 we're gravy! Plus Draymond at 43% on 3 pointers and Dillon at 40% is pretty, pretty good!

    Draymond would be the last player in the NBA I would want on the Rockets. No way.

    Not really - the Rockets overnight are fielding one of the oldest rotations in the league.

    The 4th period lineup last night:

    FVV (29)
    Brooks (27)
    Eason (22)
    Smith (20)
    Green (37)

    Closed the 3rd with
    Tate (29)
    Holiday (27)

    Let's be honest, this veteran team doesn't have time for raw rookies - time to add spicy Draymond to the mix in place of Landale.

    haha ya you can have some insane shooting luck in small samples, neither provides any spacing though so it would be a disaster. Brooks shooting has been coming around to more normal levels though, and green has only taken like 40 because he rarely plays. Would be hilarious to watch though

    Sorry Sam, Draymond is a dirty player and is declining fast in abilities and is resorting to playing dirty to try to hang on, he will continue to get worse.

    You know better than to take one night as an example we closed with:

    FVV
    Brooks
    Bari
    Alpi
    Eason

    in the last game.......we have no room at the inn for Draymond....

    DD the clock is ticking for this generation of Rockets Legends

    Uncle Jeff is 37. FVV will be 30 in a few months.

    It's Phase 2 - WIN NOW or go through another rebuild cycle

    Only if Draymond can get Curry to join for a discount.

    haha green is lucky that people don't go back at him, because most people understand there would be real consequences if they tried to act like him. I think it's why he doesn't mess with someone like jokic, he knows he would get beat down. I wish steven adams put him in his place back in the day but he's too nice sadly

    2 year rental, the same as Fred....arguable.

    Dillon and Draymond are Nut Punch Bros.

    We had Garuba, no need for another scrub.

    He's someone Pop would bring in if Spurs were one piece away from contention.

    Someone to spark the inner nasty on the court and enforce team hierarchy and discipline.

    Wait, we just paid Brooks to do many of those things and both will need some extra shots to feel motivated in doing the dirty work...
