    We need to keep it going. We're slowly getting better.

    I do question the fitness of some of the guys..... but we might have something to work with here.

    One shot?

    The unrealistic expectations around here have become a little silly.

    PJ has had a drought recently but he is still 39% shooter from 3 this season.

    Dont need another 6'4 power forward.

    Rockets need someone like Dort but 6'7 or taller.

    Thats wood. We need to just get him stronger like Clint. He a power forward. We need cousin to start personally. Basically a Brooke Lopez would be elite on this team next to wood

    Kuminga and JRE are obvious names in 2021 Draft.

    "NBA Draft 2021: Breaking Down the Top Defenders – Front Office Gurus" https://frontofficegurus.com/2020/12/13/nba-draft-2021-breaking-down-the-top-defenders/amp/

    Players via trade.

    Ben Simmons, Larry Nance Jr., Aaron Gordon, Chris Boucher, Myles Turner, OG Anunoby, Harry Giles (more about upside) even Andre Drummond (so underrated).

    Not bigs but I also love Matisse Thybulle, Kendrick Nunn, Derrick Jones Jr. and Josh Jackson.

    Rockets even have 2 very good potentially elite defenders with Vipers: 6'9 Ray Spalding, 6'8 Kenny Wooten

    But they are both just too limited offensively right now.

    Cousins is a joke of a player now.

    What's really fun is to miss the game, read the board page by page and look at the final score !

    Coach Silas must be a really clear communicator because our players know exactly what the game plan is and they're clear about it.

    If Rockets are going to make Tucker a screen and roller while parking Wood in the corner ....

    Then I'm in favor of trading him.

    Tucker rolling to the rim is not weaponizing him.

    At all.

    We're 1,5 games out of the 4th seed, why would settle for 8th ?

    I don't disagree.

    But dang I wish he would have given it a legitimate chance.
