    Time to see if Zion isn’t fat anymore or if we’ve been fooled again

    Another easy win for the Rockets if Josh Christopher plays significant minutes.

    See if Jabari and Jalen can step their offense and defense.

    Just realized the Pelicans and Mavs got much better. Our division games will be quite interesting this year.

    Recent Pel reports said Herb Jones (6'7") will slot in as Center. They might be going heavy switching small ball 5.

    Rocket's center matchup should be interesting.

    Possible lineup:
    Dejounte
    CJ
    Ingram
    Zion
    Herb (otherwise Theis)


    *Trey Murphy injured (right hammy strain), out for all of preseason reportedly.

    Why would they put a guy who's 210 at C when Zion is 280?

    When Embiid comes to town are we really to believe Herb Jones is the matchup? While Zion sits at PF against PG?

    Today against Adebayo, a smaller C, they started Rockets Legend Daniel Theis

    :D I'm not saying I agree just saying that's the chatter. The Herb thing came from Shams.

    If Herb Jones is playing C they better get the ball in Sengun's hands as quick as possible to back him under the basket and dunk on him. After what he did to Wemby last year Jones ought to be a cake walk.
