The day that all Houston Rockets fans will be glued to their TV to see - 1) If we get a Top 4 pick and future superstar.....or; 2) See OKC walk off with 2 Top 10 picks (ours dropping out of Top 4 and theirs) and us end up in mediocrity for another season and beyond. 46 days and counting. Lottery takes place on ESPN at 8:30 p.m. ET.
We should get Cade or Suggs. Will be good either way. Go rockets! Also the 2 other 1st should help, im really hoping for LSU Standout Cameron Thomas. LSU Fan here as well. Jalen Johnson if Houston is lucky maybe as well. If we get those 2 plus Cade, future could be bright. imo
The mid-picks (depending on Heat/Blazers/Bucks) - we might get lucky with a starter....or could be a 2nd team benchwarmer, or end up with G-Leaguers. Who knows. Just waiting on those ping-pong balls to see if it goes our way or continue to have that Houston sports luck.
I believe Case Cunningham is our future. He'll teach the team well, but and let Silas lead the way. Patrick Fertitta will show them all the beauty that this franchise possesses inside. Olynyk gives them a sense of pride to make it easier.
I am divided between Cade and Mobley. While I think Cade has a higher floor I see their ceilings as similar.
The odds may be good that we'll be in mediocrity even if we land a top-4 pick, so I'm not sure I'd sweat it.
