    Rockets need a playmaker more than they need Wemby. We need someone to run the offense and distribute the ball where they need it. Look at the Jazz, they have lesser tslent but their offense is efficient AF since they have multiple playmakers with Sexton, Markannen, Conley etc Rox are the opposite nobody really knows how to run an offense its like we got 2 Kobes on the court snd ask them to playmake obv the offense is gonna be whack.

    If we miss out on Wemby Scoot or another playmaker shoukd be the priority imo.

    I am glad you're not out GM, I would hope you get blackball and fired if you didn't pick Wembanyama

    A great distraction against opposing PGs. Better playmaker than KPJ

    Being 5'10" I believe they would overcome lack of size with their handling and between the legs moves.

    Last place 2 years in a row and didn't receive 1st pick either time. Losing big gets you a chance, that's all. This strategy is already old. We can do this forever but wind up with a losing culture embedded in the team DNA. Hard to break attitudes where losing is no big deal.

    By the same token we picked 2nd and 3rd, which is better than 5th or 6th.

    Which is, according to the dude you replied to, super dumb.
