    Considering Chet missed an entire season due to a non-contact injury I'd say their caution was well placed. Chet body types historically wont have a long and healthy career.

    I'm basing my comments in an interview Stone has where he kept praising Chet predraft. The "Rockets" are different from Stone, he might have Chet no 1 but as a collective the Rockets might be iffy on Chet due to the injury risk.

    Its relevant here since Green is blowing up. If he wasnt here we'd have been crushed by Spurs.

    Apart from JG and Tari everyone who has worked with the Rockets staff turned out worse to start the year.

    They will. Either Green plays well and they will regret it, or he will play poorly and they will regret it. The only way they don't regret it is if Green is a good not great player.

    Great game from Jabari.

    It's important that he plays well, because he is arguably the only guy that, on paper, can fit with any of our young core.

    I'd like data on when Jabari plays well and what our win percentage is. I know 'X-factor' is cringe but I wonder if he's it lol

    Should've smacked that wannabe Rodman. You can't be Rodman if you are a Brit that automatically makes you less manly in his case a homosexual.

    Great game by Jabari and hit a massive shot down the stretch.

    he actually crossed a guy and hit a jumper. Maybe the best move he's made as a pro.

    He won me over between the well timed 3 and the sauce into the baseline middy. Hustled down the stretch too. I feel like he just needs to get in a fight every game. Can someone follow him around and do that thing where you throw something at an opponent and when they turn around point at Jabari like he did it?

    You have a gay character on his knees in your profile picture and you're called Invocuck. You a straight batty boy.

    Obviously don't have to make this call for a while but the Jabari extension is going to be a real interesting one. I think it's harder for me to pin then Jalen or Sengun was

    The Rockets will choose Smith over Eason out of pride/stubbornness - Eason will go somewhere for less $$$ but more than Houston can pay and post insane advanced stats/on off ratings and it will be infuriating
