    What do you mean „weaker opponents”? I had people tell me same **** about Doncic. Its 19yo, dominating grown men in pro league (not some bs college kids, same way Sengun was dominating grown men in Turkey or Luka in Spain), with playstyle that is unmatched in history, No visible holes in his game. All that while being one of the tallest bball players ever. If you ever played competetive basketball and watch this guy then you know right away what you are looking at. Look how dominating Yao was and imagine he had crossovers like point guard with off the dribble stepback threepoint shot. Its absurd.

    Forget about Wemby. Alperen Sengun and Tary Eason is our reality!

    Remembering lineups like Harden-Ariza-Moute-Tucker-Capela. They were just dominating defensively because they had 3 absolute dawgs and a feared rim protector and Harden with the big hammer on offense.

    Could you replicate something like Green-Eason-Smith-Wembanyama-Sengun? Not quite apples-apples but really the question is what happens if we land Wembanyama? Smith-Sengun-Wembanyama starting lines a possibility? Who sits?

    It would definitely be an interesting question .... I don't think you can play all three together, none of them are natural 3's and would have trouble defensively and then there's the fact that none of the three shoot well enough from outside that you wouldn't have spacing issues.

    Sengun .313
    Jabari .305
    Wemby .298 (from international 3 point line of 22 feet).

    It would be (Is) tough enough with just two of them on the floor .... One of them has to come off the bench.

    BREAKING: Victor Wembanyama’s father says he will not work out or be drafted by the Rockets. If the Rockets land the number one pick, Victor will demand a trade.

    I predict that the Rockets will definitely all nine games.

    GUARANTEE

    To be specific, I meant that in the next nine games our Rockets have a chance to either or.

    I'm certain.

    The bottom four teams have all lost 39 or 40 games. Remember what just happened to the Texans.

    Why are you posting your own tweets here? And while using a different name?

    You just need to hope these is a lebron or shaq or duncan in the draft and this year there is a prospect of that caliber in the draft.

    The problem with this team is we keep drafting athletic ability and hoping they turn into something good but when I look at our team I cant say that one player is a legit shooter or pg. I know it will take some years for these kids to get good enough to compete in this league but I still think this team needs a legit shooter and center.

    Well it's the truth. Plus, the worst coach ever.
