Altuve EASILY, especially if we get to keep Springer too. Second base is a position where you rarely see elite offense production approaching...
This is a very sharp post re: inflated trade value. I was thinking the D'Antoni signing was a Moreyball move just for this purpose.
Ryan Anderson should shoot >40% on 3s if he's on the Rockets next season, he is a ridiculously good shooter who hasn't played on teams with good...
Longo would be a monster on the Astros, and a major upgrade!
Springer is incredibly good and seems to be entering his prime based on his mastery of the strike zone. Correa and Altuve are still our best...
Very good work, ISO (extra base hits) with runners on is one of the most high variance stats around, and can really make or break a season,...
The Astros relievers now have a 3.10 xFIP, which is tied for the best in the majors with the Yankees. To put that into perspective, Jake Arrieta...
Vogel is easily the best HC available.
Gomez is on the wrong side of 30 and if he can't hit for power or steal bases he is pretty worthless. Looking at his career splits though, he's...
Wait people want Avery Bradley/Courtney Lee but don't want Bev? Isaiah Thomas/Bradley and Kemba/Lee backcourts are inferior versions of...
This is exactly what a coach should do but even if they had the heart to do this, they won't risk being blackballed by the league for showing them...
Ariza disappears a lot of games but that's because he has to play 40 minutes guarding the team's best player and I'm sure his legs are tired by...
+1 emphatically to START CAPELA. Yes they won't be able to guard any 3 point shots, but they aren't doing that anyway. Our only chances are on...
A Capela/Aldrich platoon sounds ideal since both are fairly low usage guys who are strong around the rim and rebound fairly well. They also...
Thread should be titled, "Capela not starting due to incompetence reasons?" The Rockets were elite (arguably the best in the league) at...
Brewer and Terry really shouldn't be in the rotation right now.
Apologies for quoting a long post but ^^^ THIS!!! Our current backup guards are JET, Brewer, and now lol Beasley. Our starting 4 is an out of...
Wow the Rockets are getting a top 8 pick for Dmo/Thornton? Lol that's a massive steal especially with this college class. What am I missing?
Trading Howard isn't that bad because Houston has close to 0 shot of winning a championship this season, and the only purpose of retaining Howard...
I'm not sold that Avery Bradley is as good as Pat Beverley, although it's close. He plays a lot more minutes so his volume stats look better, but...
