i think rockets are much better this year... we were competitive in almost every game till the very end...and considering circumstances this is a huge sucess
I would like to see our full rotation healthy and playing for 6-7 games so I can see who we really are... right now we have to rely on the young guys for long stretches and we are undersized..
i did not see that??? Sabonis block his shot one time...if Coach let him played in the 4th quarter....he would have 18 points and 20 rebounds...he is too big and active
There are some things that concern me that won’t be fixed w a full rotation. Effort by certain people, for example. But I can’t adequately judge what this team is until they have at least a week together.
Trade incoming! For real though, why would the Magic trade Gordon? We likely don't have anything they really need/desire? Otto Porter, per usual, would be a nice acquisition. Definitely need to get someone in the Ariza/RoCo style role. Ariza might make sense if bought out and is our only option and still wants to play ball. Otto Porter, Harrison Barnes, etc. Look at teams that are likely on losing teams that would like to get assets for an expiring contract like Otto Porter instead of losing him for nothing. Porter is on the trade block too, perpetually it seems. What other names that could be an obtainable upgrade at the 3/4 with plenty of length/defense/shooting and even play the 5 if we go small against a soft opposing 5. As others have said, RoCo is the perfect fit but obviously we can't get him again anytime soon. Wood is/was worth the gamble since bigs with his offensive versatility don't grow on trees. Just have to figure out how to obtain a RoCo clone for an asset or two and we will start to look much better once everyone is healthy and settling into their roles. Guys like Porter/Barnes/RoCo can seemingly fit in any system/team.
house being out a week due to what silas said was sleeping the wrong way on his back seems very strange to say the least
Or sleeping with the wrong person at the wrong place at the wrong time in terms of homewrecking reasons.
Injuries are all we deal with during the yao & Mac era and most of Harden's era. Harden hasn't won, not because he's unable to carry us, but because of his damn sidekicks getting hurt during the playoff. Not even a month in and we're dealing with injuries left & right. And after what House did to us during the playoff, all this fool has been doing is promoting his stupid music.
What do you want to see tonite? Beyond a win that is. I need to see better defense And FRICKING REBOUNDING!!!! Cut the stupid turnovers Rocket River
