    Easily the most unlikeable rocket i’ve ever seen. The way he looks, plays, everything. He never belonged here and he’s a **** mentor because Reed never lost the jitters but found his shot and that has nothing to do with steady freddy. Nothing steady about an barely 80 overall overpaid player anyway. Good riddance

    Someone might need to do a welfare check on Fred

    Ehh right now if we can pull McCoy or Mingo for a point guard and grab another best available guard I’ll be pretty happy

    I wish Shawn Michaels can superkick Ime Udoka, Rafael Stone, Fred VanVleet, Kevin Durant all in a line.

    Honestly, Thornton doesn’t seem to be a bad pick after seeing a bit more than him. At least, he works hard. Unfortunately , he isn’t a starter.

    Everyone knew that the Rockets needed a PG upgrade, before FVV got hurt. I think FVV will sulk on the bench and play 15 minutes a game at the most.

    If true I've gone from being disappointed in the Smart deal to extremely enthused. I don't want Amen spending one more minute at point guard or any guard really.

    We all know Ime would play Fred on one knee over Reed with two.

    "My whole knee exploded" was a calculated I'm not getting traded now move. Slightly selfish but I can't even really blame him. He's said before he really doesn't want to uproot his family again and that's a big deal to him.

    More power to him and let’s be real.
    It wouldn’t have moved the needle

    this team and its front office need to suffer with the bed they made

    The way he looks? So you hate a player for the way he looks? What do you look like? Im curious? What should players look like? I didn’t know player performance is judged on looks. I hope your organization fires you for the way you look. By the way playing point is more than shooting. Sheppard has gone on record to credit Fred with mentorship. And what exactly did Sheppard find? His shot was terrible in stretches (over a month) and terrible again in the playoffs.

    is it possible that he is kind of helping us and spread the word. End up trading for him, and at least his contract will be covered by insurance?

    maybe that is a stretch, but it seems like it’s been done before. if he can’t pass a physical and it seems like his contract would be insured.

    FVV/Capela/DFS/Adams/2027 worst FRP/and then throwing another first round or if Irving is on the team after three seasons.

    Irving and PJ Washington in from Dallas. Smith or even Tari or Amen stepping as a hybrid center in small stretches at a time. And we can sign somebody off the free agent market or try to go over somebody like Myles Turner.


    Sengun/Smith
    Smith/Washington
    Durant/Eason
    Amen/Reed/Bogdan
    Kyrie/Smart

    Well they’re not going to have much luck trading him if they’re also saying his knee is shot…

    Since the Championship years this team has been like riding on one long rollercoaster ride where the track barely gets off the ground except for one little high point but mostly just for kids. Years of mediocrity and still everyone talks about riding the team up. This team just sucks. Let's all just face it.

    Where are the videos of him working out? He had 2 things last year, the knee injury and Prader- Willi Syndrome.
