    There's a real possibility that the Rockets found 3 hidden gems in this draft and utterly wiffed on the #2 pick.

    Who would have thought that rotational player for Real Madrid and Spain would dominate in gleague… not Silas lol. Real Madrid is basicaly NBA level team(of course lower tier) and somehow coach finded place for Garuba to be impactful

    I don't think that's true at all.

    How long does he stay in the valley? The point has been made. He has been able to play like this from day one and yet House gets minutes. What do practices look like? I predict fist fights in near future. How frustrating could it be for young Garuba to be a Rocket.

    Wall, Christopher, Martin, Garuba, Sengun as a starting unit would have CLOSE to a winning record, IMO. If Weaver was coaching.

    Real Madrid would win 15 games in the NBA.

    Which is 8 more than we will

    Remember when Doncic was best player on Mavs in his rookie year? He was standing out more than he did at Real. This was a team with Campazzo Llull Anthony Rudy Fernandez with TOP coach… they would easily win 20-30

    And it would not matter cause 3 out of 4 is still great progress for a rebuilding team.

    I still think more games is needed to judge green. Some player might take seasons to blossom so it's quite foolish to think we whiff after only 17 games.

    When g league is more fun than watching NBA team…. Yikes…..imagine the anal fisting Alpi would do to gleague and he was almost sent there. Im 100% sure that when he lost minutes he wouldnt come back if it werent for fan pressure, and since Silas has no balls he bent

    Thanks for the heads up. I didn’t know Jaygup got sent down. I expect him to act bad. For those that don’t know that means I expect him to show his ass. If you still don’t know, I expect him to have a really good game lol.

    There is a real possibility that some people love using their imagination to inflate the value of players who have yet to show value aka backup QB syndrome, aka dmo obsession aka Jones obsession aka house obsession.
