    Suddenly, the D-League is turning into a place for little brothers. GSW's D-League team already has Steph Curry's little brother and Klay Thompson's little brother. Now we have one of our own. Do any other Rockets players have little brothers who ball?

    I'm assuming Isaiah Canaan will join that final 10 man roster and stay with the Rockets through training camp? (albeit inactive)

    Poor guy got the short end of the stick when it came to genetics compare to Dwight. If he had 5-6 more inches in height he would probably have been a high draft pick and in the NBA

    For real. Talk about a useless lift for an athlete (or anyone looking to gain strength).

    Where are the videos of Jahaziel passing...the lateral raises and heading to the squat rack?

    This means there will only be room for either Zandler Parsons OR Zames Harden.
