    Making history! First trade executed during the middle of a player's shot. Do you think the shot will go in or brick?

    It will be on a step back made 3 with 8:23 minutes left in the 2nd quarter...

    Wood goes up to Harden and while Harden goes to give Wood a high five, Wood fakes the high five and says "This is my team now!"

    I imagine he hears “traded” over the PA mid shot and has a visceral reaction jerking toward the sideline and the ball nails Pop in the nuts.

    Clemons just popped his Achilles last game. The Rockets aren’t taking any chances.

    They play or practice pretty much every day during Training Camp. We’ll probably never know exactly why it happened, but certainly fatigue over the course of training camp could have contributed.

    i can't imagine a 23yr old 5'9" guy having an injury like that due to fatigue. imo some people are just pre-disposed to leg injuries. weaker tendons/ligaments than others. and on the opposite spectrum you have guys like harden/lebron/drexler who can play all day fatigued AF and nothing ever happens

    Better load management than what's written next to it.
