    Perhaps we will be the team of Ignite drafts. A lot of mock drafts see us grabbing him.

    I don’t know how I feel about him, personally. I would rather we get a big than another guard.

    I def doubt we draft another guard.

    Mockdrafts just put whoever is available by the rankings.

    I’m getting all the Jalen & Jaden’s mixed up.

    Jalen Green
    Jaden Ivey
    Jaden Hardy
    Jalen Duren

    Nikola Jokic
    Nikola Jovic

    Scoot Henderson(2023)
    Scoot Porter Jr.

    But I ain’t confusing any of them for Jabari Smith, Chet Holmgren or Paolo Banchero. ;)

    Unless you trade the pick, rule of thumb is you draft the superior talented player over filling a need.

    Ideally, a big would help shore up the front court rotation, but you don’t leave talent to fill a need. Trade down or just take the better talent in the draft and then ultimately trade the guy who isn’t the ideal fit for the team.

    But, right now it’s still too early to tell where the Rockets will be drafting. I think a lot of us think they’re are a few runs in this team before the end of the season.

    With Green back and KPJ almost ready, I’m excited to see what a full heathy roster can muster up in terms of team chemistry.
