Why not? Stone could roll out a five team trade that turns into a ten team trade where a third of the league trades for our assets (plus picks and cash for the trouble) and then trades them for even more picks while snickering. We could even blame Ausar and say we were going to draft him first but he reneged on a verbal agreement with us!
I do not think Ausar fit well with Cade and Ivey. Detroit will trade him now because it is too soon. I think at the end of the year we might have a chance. Honestly, at the end of the year I would give up Dillion Brooks(having a good year), Cam and a FRP. Ausar can be a defensive stopper and a enforcer. He is a elite defender, way better than Amen. The goal is having Tari, Jabari and Ausar as our future wings. Watch Ausar today, elite defender.
Simply not true. Especially from non Rocket fans who just look at true shooting percentage and RAPTOR and assume Sengun is faultless and the one bright spot of the Rockets. Have you followed NBA Twitter discourse on the Rockets?
Our fanbase has a strong contingent of haters for all our young guys except maybe Tari. All of KPJ, Sengun, Jabari and Green have a strong contingent of strong haters within the fanbase. Outside the fanbase Sengun is easily the most beloved player on this team by a wide wide wide margin.
I wish we could get him at just about any cost. He and his brother on the same team would be amazing. Keeping the Thompson family together here in Houston and good things will happen.
Same people that wanted us to draft Markieff with Marcus Morris. There is probably a name for those fantasizing about twins. Same with wanting all these "Jr's"
