    Most of the players are high school age now, so makes sense.

    Its smaller now, Tilman repurposed half of it as a draft practice facility so that Stone and others can practice their lottery faces and draft night lottery calls... Spared no expense...

    Yes, and it is beyond outrageous.

    Tilman, what happened to the training facility you promised?

    Watching this makes me feel claustrophobic, especially when you see other teams training facilities (see page 1)

    Legit complaint about our training facilities, and u have folks creating a thread to suck him off for doing the bare minimum of not interfering with the tank process.

    I think and correct me if im wrong but our practice facility is literally in toyota center and the other teams seem like they have a completely seperate facility.Maybe the Rockets had limited room if they wanted on the premises.Either now at this point for our new YOUNG guys they should get a nice new one.

    Rockets practice facility looks like somebody's backyard garage court.

    Wow i actually never bothered to think anything of it. Damn that's sad. These players have bigger courts at their homes ffs.

    This literally looks like LA Fitness, which I stopped going to because their court sucked (go to 24 hr which has a big ass court with breathing room).

    I want to know how NBA players even tolerate this and why did Les cheap out on the practice facility. Honestly, TC hasnt really aged well overall

    The Rockets desperately need a 1st class training facility and it doesn't have to be in the building housing the Toy Box. It ought to be centrally located, however, in my opinion.

    somebody does a fadeaway in the corner, they’ll literally run into a wall

    Rockets practice facility is the NYC shoebox apartment version

    it’s so sad

    They need to start asking the players this question so they can voice their displeasure - then baby Ferttita can tell daddy to cut the check for a top notch facility. Heck I don’t care if it’s in sugarland - anything is better than this YMCA court

    You guys need to stop complaining. We've got a bunch of kids used to college facilities. They are trying to make them feel at home. ;)
