If we don't win the Flagg, what position should we go for at #9?

Ime would have played all other top 4 picks in that draft because they all would have been able to contribute in other areas of the game unlike Ree. Sheppar doesn't have that dawg in him like those other top 4. He still looks scared most of the time.
Carter, even after being injured and getting minimal PT was still able to get a couple of starts in the play-in and do well.

 

Sheppard was the best player in the class and he still got basically no minutes. Suggesting that Ime would have played inferior players more is just saying that you think he's more of a moron than I do.

 

I do think Kon Knueppel is the perfect fit on this team. Like a not dumb Tari Eason. I want the dumb players off this team. Finding Sengun/Reed/Amen is pretty damn hard. Keep surrounding them with other smart players.

 

Trade the pick is the play. But let's say they hold onto it. Get another solid rotation player, someone who fits the system and fills a need. And if we're talking needs, the Rockets could use some size. Not just a body, but a modern big, someone who can switch, rim protect, and pass out of the short roll.

 

They're reducing its use in plastic containers - it's bad for you.

 

Wouldn't mind seeing the Rockets draft Cam Whitmore out of Villanova

 

It's not an uncommon one. You might hear it on sports podcasts, if you listen to them. And now you'll be in-the-know!

 

#3 Pick Hopefully

 

Why draft a player that doesn't listen.

BPA or trade out.

 

From Sam Vecenies latest mock draft.

10. Houston Rockets (via PHX)
Collin Murray-Boyles | 6-8 wing/forward | 20 years old | South Carolina
The Rockets are loaded across each position. They have a veteran point guard in Fred VanVleet and drafted their point guard of the future in Reed Sheppard at No. 3 last year; the organization is still extremely high on Sheppard despite his lack of playing time this year. They have their center of the future in Alperen Şengün. I think they will just take the best player available in the lottery, and at this spot, that’s Murray-Boyles for me. He’s a tremendous defender and would fit in perfectly with how Ime Udoka wants to play. He also passes well and has serious toughness to play with many of their players. He processes the game at an elite level and is the kind of prospect the Rockets have valued in the past.

 

Kon Knueppel
CMB

in that order. Think most might be gone at 9.

 

You pick the best player who is most versatile, never based on position. They also must have at least one elite skill that translates to the NBA. Defense, shooting, passing, slashing, athleticism, etc.

 

Shoot, I'd be happy if they just get Cooper Flagg and Rasheer Fleming. I'm not looking for a home run or anything on this draft. I think we have enough young talent.

 

Best shooter on the board

 

Throw it in the poopoo platter and lets get an upgrade... a known commodity! Otherwise, It's time to get pieces for a real run! It's time to trade for Battier!
