    [WaPo] NBA free agency winners and losers: Rockets going big; Bucks going nowhere

    2025-26 Depth Chart

    Really hoping signing Capela and DFS over a guard means Reed and Cam get serious minutes this year.

    Windhorst: Rockets still looking at Giannis

    They’ll ask but I wouldn’t give up Reed. Sengun, Tari, Cam and all the picks should be enough. Sengun is a young all star big on a great contract,...

    Windhorst: Rockets still looking at Giannis

    I hear you. It depends on what the org wants. Durant is obviously a win now move. It’s hard to say no to increasing the chances during this 3 year...

    Utah Jazz Trade Collin Sexton & 2030 2nd round pick to Charlotte Hornets for Jusuf Nurkic

    Sexton would have been great here. Would have traded Landale and Cam.

    Shot Creation and Shot making is what we need

    KD, Amen and Sengun create shots. Bari and Reed (and Durant, he’s pretty good) make shots. Need to add another guard who can shoot. Either trade...

    Reed Sheppard is the Rockets’ Franchise Player™

    Cam on the trade block

    This almost sounds like the Rox feel like they have a gap at SF instead of playing Durant there with Bari at the 4. If it’s a defense concern of...

    Sam Amick: Giannis probably on top of Rockets list

    Agreed. I fully expect improvement to a consideration for all star for Amen in year 3 and by year 4 I believe he will be an all NBA player. Green...

    Case to Draft Reed Sheppard at #3

    He just needs consistent minutes. He looked great late in the season against LAC, LAL, and OKC. FVVs minutes need to be reduced to 30 and Reed...

    Fred extension - 2 year 50 million

    Durant traded to Houston for Green, Brooks, #10 pick, and multiple 2nd rounders

    Durant is currently # 8 on the all time scoring list. Three seasons with us and he should pass Kobe for # 4. Just something fun to watch our...
