    Imagine if you could swap Russ for Klay Thompson.

    Just take this year as a loss, so that you could pair James and Klay in year two. I know it would never happen but just to see Harden with an elite shooter would be something.

    Harden
    Klay
    House
    Tucker
    Wood

    Whatever trade for Westbrook j want a scorer backs somebody who can get buckets or takeover when James is having one of those “games” like game 7 against OKC.. Russ all year up until the bubble was an excellent second option. Co3 his first year here was a great. Second option. I don’t want a Dwight like second option Aka not dependable

    Westbrook for Aaron Gordon + moving pieces seems like the best-case scenario. Getting another big/wing with athleticism that can shoot would be huge.

    Harden
    EG
    House
    AG
    Wood

    Very nice starting 5. Still would be wary of not having a true 2nd option, but good fits around Harden. The increase in front-court athleticism would be dramatic. If the FO pulled this off I might start having some belief.

    Dream trade
    Westbrook, Tucker & FRPs (till they say yes)
    ...for...
    Brogdon, Sabonis, Warren

    Starters:
    Brogdon, Harden, Warren, Sabonis, Wood

    Main Rotation:
    Cousins & Gordon 6 men, House, Nwaba

    Develop and play the rest of our team most of them fourth quarter because of blowing out the other team. Keeps everyone’s playing time down but ready for playoffs. (Short Season)

    Best TEAM the Rockets have put on the court in years, decades, maybe even in the top 3 ever.

    Stone fixed a lot of issues so far. I kinda like going back to traditional approach. This team is going to be fun and regain a lot of fans who stopped watching Bc of iso heavy, gimmick ball. This team will be fun to watch.

    Why do people keep putting Eric Gordon as a Small Forward on their rotation? That's a bad match up, and is annoying me. He's a Guard, not a Small Forward.

    Offense may be tweaked but Silas, Stone and even Wood have confirmed that offense will still be 5 Out.

    Rockets have spent all their cash available for trades.

    If we have drozen, it is a good trade. If westbrooks really wants to trade, only John wall is the choice
