Maluach would be great pickup if Rockets get top 8 pick. Or Rockets could trade down, pick up 2026 FRP + draft 7'1 point center Danny Wolf.
If Zion is available then he's my target. Zion's strengths are tailored to Ime's system and Zion is much better cutter, rebounder, rim protector +...
Enjoyed this take, well stated.
Even if Rockets not top 5 team this season, the roster was already jam packed and rotations set prior to drafting Reed. And Udoka is not the most...
Wolves are likely top 4 team when all is said and done. The Randle experiment really set them back but they have adjusted as the season has...
#3 overall usually has a longer leash because bad teams can afford to start or play heavy minutes for these high value picks. Not the case with a...
Coaching and system have improved Cavs offense. Cavs play GSW offense which emphasizes uptempo, offball screen heavy + ball movement. “[Our...
Good list. I'd add improved perimeter defense in Q4. Opposing teams consistently get hot from downtown at end of games. Transition frequency +...
Cavs just signed vet 3-D Javonte Green after buyout. This would have been a nice addition + system fit for Rockets.
Are you ignoring every article + vid I posted? The Wolves have obviously used him at both 4 and 5, defending perimeter + post. Let's just agree to...
Finch quote on Naz last season: "His defense has gone from strength to strength,” Finch said. “His rebounding, it’s just fun to watch him get...

Jabari was definitely the worst starter vs Jazz, Rockets should not have played him so many minutes considering his recent return from injury +...
Defense was starting to go south before Jabari + Fred injuries + the half court offense failings in clutch time (giving up double digit leads at...
An advanced metric like DRTG should not be exclusive of other data so your conclusion that I argued Reid is better defender than McDaniels is an...
Agreed. Ime should not have started him + definitely played too many minutes.
Blaming Alperen for this loss is mind boggling.
Dillon was not worse than Jabari tonight. Last night, he was definitely worse.
Not sure what you're implying. REB by starters: Alp - 12 Amen - 9 Dillon - 9 Jabari - 2 Jalen - 3
Rockets lost the REB battle which has been critical to success.
