Yes, that would be an apt comparison if our third best player was banned from Toyota Center because he refused to get a COVID vaccine. Generally speaking, any argument that can fit on a bumper sticker is likely wrong.
Houston Rockets Trade Breakdown Change in Team Outlook: +0.3 ppg, +2.2 rpg, and +1.7 apg. Incoming Players Jose Alvarado 27 year old, 6-0, 179 lb G from Georgia Tech 8.9 ppg, 2.9 rpg, 3.3 apg in 22.5 minutes in 2025-2026 DeAndre Jordan 37 year old, 6-11, 265 lb C from Texas A&M 4.5 ppg, 5.0 rpg, 0.0 apg in 11.7 minutes in 2025-2026 Outgoing Players Clint Capela 31 year old, 6-10, 256 lb PF from Chalon-Sur-Saone (France) 3.8 ppg, 4.8 rpg, 0.4 apg in 11.7 minutes in 2025-2026 Aaron Holiday 29 year old, 6-0, 185 lb PG from UCLA 9.3 ppg, 1.0 rpg, 1.1 apg in 17.1 minutes in 2025-2026
I would love Alvarado tenaciousness on this team and bringing DeAndre home finally seems fitting. Have you seen Jordan play lately? I'm wondering how much juice he has in his tank.
FVV/Eason for Holiday and a future first. Combine the Holiday brothers. Sengun/Adams/Capela Smith/Sengun/DFS KD/DFS Amen/Reed Jrue Holiday/Aaron Holiday
No thanks. Tari or DFS can be used as part of a bigger upgrade. I would hate to trade Tari, I admit, but the team comes first.
Houston Rockets Trade Breakdown Change in Team Outlook: -5.2 ppg, -3.4 rpg, and +3.2 apg. Incoming Players T.J.

This. For anyone seriously considering trading before deadline, I would not look at any player that makes above $7-$10 million. Looking like a buy-out market for the Rockets this year.
I read a news report that GS is looking to trade Stephen Curry. There is speculation that Houston might become the favorites to acquire him, while retaining Sengun, KD and Amen. Just wanted to share this. I don't believe a word of it. I don't want Stephen Curry on the Houston Rockets.
They’ve had injuries but something smells rotten in Cleveland. Probably more for the off-season or next season, if at all. They had previous interest! https://www.si.com/nba/rockets/onsi...est-in-all-star-donovan-mitchell-01hzaxvfnnrw https://bleacherreport.com/articles...kets-interested-in-cavs-star-amid-lakers-buzz https://www.fearthesword.com/2024/1...mitchell-before-he-signed-extension-with-cavs https://rocketswire.usatoday.com/st...g-donovan-mitchell-derrick-white/75840343007/
\ does utah even consider this? obviously we'd need to add 2-3 first round picks. Reed Amen Markkanen Durant Sengun is a nasty 5.
