    Scoot looked better than all of our draft picks.

    people desperately want to see Bari dominate.

    Bari is a 3rd pick but Rockets got so many high level draft picks any 2 of the 7 we have can become stars. If bari is only a high level role player that would be good for me. We not going to have 17 LeBron's.

    Scoot is the real deal and Amen looks like a player too. Tari doing what he does best (defense). Cam looks pretty strong based on the way he picked up Jabari.

    Not liking what I’m seeing from Jabari at all - he’s the same awkward baby deer on the court he was a year ago and his shot is still broken. I think he’ll be trade bait sooner rather than later.

    Always did. You HAVE to draft based on IQ and athleticism together, period. You can teach literally everything else.

    As long as the prospect has both, the chance of busting is less than 1%.

    Brandon Miller over Scoot Henderson will go down as even worse than Jabari, for instance.

    It might be time to adjust expectations for Jabari.

    He needs to make himself an elite defender that can knock down open threes. Enough of this Jabari self creation…

    Scoot looks like Josh Christopher to me, not convinced.... He played the entire quarter and forcing everything...

    I’ve seen enough. Let’s attach some draft picks and dump FVV and Brooks to clear playing time for Amen and Cam.

    I think that always has been the expectation hasn't it?

    He forced 2 shots with 4 other undrafted players around him.

    He'll look better with the actual team his a an all star role player type of potential if that makes sense imo
