    Seriously look at the scoreline on the bottom and it tells you all you need to know about Garuba - janitor time as caddy for Bo Cruz and his brother against a very mediocre team.

    He’s yet to be healthy, so the grade on Garuba is incomplete.

    Correct answer is Ayo Dosunmu or Herb Jones

    People being disappointed because 4 of 4 rookies didn't pop off in one draft? Stop being greedy. Just hope Destiny Garuba can contribute. If not, whatever. Rockets have 1 million other draft picks to get it right. Rockets barely have space to play these dudes already.

    rooting for you destiny!

    This will never get old.

    I personally use and recommend getting a flushable wet wipes in bulk from Costco as well as getting a bidet set up to have a #1 clean *******

    Keep in mind Jones is 4 years older than Garuba and Grimes is 2 years. Garuba is probably a bust but who cares? We already going to have trouble getting all our guys the minutes they need as it is.

    Not being in shape for his second SL is a pretty big red flag. Looked winded during Spanish team drills. He's like the anti-Jabari when it comes to conditioning.

    No one will even try to defend him when he posts up.

    Herb Jones honestly would be perfect on this team. He would instantly be out primary small forward/wing defender.

    With Herb, you got your guy you who you are going to stick on guys like Durant, Luka and LeBron

    Well, I would have traded it to Orlando for their first round pick this year.

    DayRon Sharpe was my hope on draft day but now he is buried behind some washed future HOF’ers on the Nets getting no playing time at all. He was a low risk high reward at this point in that draft. Rockets could have used him as a big off the bench. He was starting to hit threes in the pre draft tryouts/camps. I still understand the Garuba pick over him on draft night because Garuba at the time was a better prospect.

    Why are so many people in such a rush to pass judgement on Garuba? It's so freaking dumb.
