    Do you expect Eric Gordon to be gone or still with the team?

    Well I don't know about the size of your hands but I wear an XL glove. It's difficult for me.

    I don't have problems on Nerf goals because with my length and leaping ability I can dunk from anywhere in the room.

    Gordon may start. He doesn't really play PG much.

    One thing is for sure, Nix would like you better as coach rather than me.

    exactly he tries to hype them up and trade for something of value but people see the deal

    I feel like I've seen enough of Daishen Nix to know he's not the answer for this team. He might be more of a point guard than KPJr, but he can't shoot, doesn't pass enough, can't finish at the rim and generally he doesn't seem to enhance the offense the way real point guards do.

    Think he completely misjudges what the team wants from him. No team needs selfish hero ball from the G-league guy.

    Nix has mega issues on both sides of the ball, and is out of shape again. Sure, the contrast between a "true PG" and our starting backcourt might be visually appealing to some, but don't get carried away. TyTy will be a much better player. He'll bring whatever Nix brings and much more. Enough with the hype.

    TyTy was taken 29th due to his injuries...a projected lottery pick without them, and their risk. If he stays healthy, he''s a helluva player.

    He's got this training camp to show if he deserves playing time on the Rockets or if he'll be end of bench or even G League.

    JG flashes cash on instagram and DD immediately questions his maturity and drive.

    Twix flashes cash and a rifle on instagram and DD immediately inflates his height and skill. How bizarre.

    I thought Washington played better in SL than Nix. Washington made the headier passes and was a better spot up shooter for sure.

    Nix is to fat.

    TyTy is the future.

    Nix needs more time in the G-League.
