    If LaMelo is a winning player why is he playing a lot of minutes on a tanking team?

    Sounds like a garbage player to me...

    With that said, I have this odd feeling that the Spurs or Hornets will get the #1 pick. Hornets would be a fun team if they do.

    The other day Tankathon got me Washington as the first to
    draft after one try with Houston.

    East vs West

    Detroit won Cade.
    Orlando won Paolo.

    If East wins out, they'd be deep.

    Attacking LaMelo won't make your guy Green any less of a failure.

    Absolutely, I'm a Rockets fan, but I was speaking to a Jalen Green first fan, that's why I said "your guy". As in, the guy he spends all day making excuses for.

    How i "really" feel about Green is that he's one of the worst players on the entire team and one of the worst defensive players in the entire league. His absolute failure thus far helped the team team last year, and is a large reason why they are worse this year.

    The entire game is based around him, and he's terrible.

    In the short term, it might net the Rockets another chance at a top 4 pick.... hopefully they don't blow it this time. In the long run, unless he becomes a totally different much higher quality player, he'll continue to be detrimental to the team's success.

    Since I'm a fan of the team, I'm not going to like players who are detrimental to the team.

    That tells you how bad things really are I guess. Having said that, I’m going to get in on that action I think. I don’t see Silas letting them lose tonight. Bears Texans part 2.

    Good chance we might win tonight. Someone call Justin Patton’s agent. We need a secret weapon for the tank.

    I haven't been keeping up with the Rockets. Still sucking? Is Jabari doing pretty well? Green, not so much? You are one of my favorite posters, so I value your opinion.
