    Or maybe that’s the genius, they’ll face so much elite defense in practice, it will force them to become better offensive players & shooters lol

    Doesn't make any sense with Tate already on the roster unless...

    ...Rockets will consolidate players in a move for Giannis at the deadline.

    I guess they'll carry 15 players after all.

    I prefer Alec Burks over this signing, but who knows how much money Burks was demanding

    Thats what I'm thinking as well...stock pile on young assets and draft picks to make a bigger trade in the future if this current roster underperforms

    Yeah I wanted Burks. What's the Rockets front office's aversion to good shooters?

    Rockets and wings with suspect shooting, questionable passing, but play hard nosed defense, name a better duo.

    He's no. 14. I think Cam was an Exhibit 10.

    Rockets had a vet minimum left after Cam trade. This leaves the Rockets with ~$1.26M under their hard cap of the 1st apron.

    Stone: With Reed as the backup PG, how many defenders will you need to play him?
    Ime: All of them.

    Wow. Okogie can't shoot.

    But Why no Amir Coffey or Alec Burks?
