    No Clingan, please. I'm on the Reed or bust train if the Rockets draft at 3. Lots of intriguing prospects around 10 and late lottery.

    They all look like babies. I'm almost 50 and I looked young for my age until health problems made me go grey. I remember looking at my father's high school yearbook and everybody looked like they were 30. The estrogen, forever chemicals, etc have transformed us forever. Look up how the Russians bred the aggression out of foxes and they looked like puppies. The same thing in a different perspective is happening to us without testosterone. We used to be wolves, now were beagles.

    If we are a bottom 11 team that would be extremely disappointing.
