    What are they missing???

    C- Capela - NeNE- Faried
    PF - Need A Starter? - Faried
    SF- Need A Starter? Tucker
    SG - Harden . Gordon
    PG- C.Paul - Rivers.

    If you Ask me you need Two Defensive plus savy players to fill in. You have no trade assets. If you could get Marc Gasol and Jothan Simmons in trade with maybe some how picks and expriings contacts, and use Gordon to get Gasol, and somehow maybe simmons using Knights contract, i would go for them hard.... Green can take Gordon spot.

    Keep seeing Faried put on people's depth charts at PF. He'll never play PF on the Rockets. He can't shoot threes.

    I also disagree with you in that I think Tucker is an adequate starter. I do, however, agree there is nobody who can fit our other starter spot now that House is gone. And yes, I know that House is just a system player that was thriving next to Harden but I genuinely believe he's adequate if not ideal. I was really hoping that Memphis would be willing to send us Jamychal Green and Garrett Temple (as mentioned in the Iko piece). Those two guys would basically complete our roster. J. Green, Tucker, Temple and Ennis with some occasional small ball minutes from Gerald Green/Gordon/Rivers etc would really shore up our forward rotation. Especially if we found a way to bring back House.

    It seems like Vegas prevails when your team is outnumbered on the superstar or star count.
    1 superstar and 11 role players vs 2 stars and 10 role players = a loss every time for he 1 superstar team. The refs hedge to make the game good drama and entertainment but really the fix is in. I am still not all the way sure that CP3 was hurt as bad as they say in the Warriors series. The issue is the Rox where kicking their but and the league wants Lebron to be the only one that can compete against them. The Rox are the only legitimate threat to the Warriors. Just bask Bob Myers GS GM. He stated that this was the only team that put fear in him. This would have embarrassed the league and upset the Vegas dynamic it's just not acceptable because its all about the money and who gets it

    Stop just stop, remember the Laker’s fan —> don’t be him. We are literally one of the smallest teams in the league plus we are injured plus we just faced the best center in the world. Stop the silliness the world is not against us.

    I would love this to but nobody seems like they want to do business with the Rockets

    Yup. Embiid just took advantage of the small rockets. Sure embiid got a call here or there where I felt he just lost balance and they gave him fts but that's not even close to the main reason Houston got blown out

    What I miss most about House is that confidence and cockiness. James Ennis and Nanaully are chicken littles.

    Rivers was worst with a -28 and 0 points going 0-5 from FG range.

    I think the refs called it fair in terms of fouls but in terms of setting the tone, they were complete trash. I'm surprised there werent any altercations.
