    He will probably get called up after they sort out this roster. After Deadline.

    When Wood and KPJ are on the court together is when I'm going to start watching Rocket games really carefully again. Right now I just casually check into games with the current roster as there only a few pieces a genuinely care about for this team's future like Tate.

    Tilman has always taken care of Coogs. Did the same for Rob Gray, just gave him free money basically when it was obvious he wasn't good enough for NBA. That's why he's broke tho...

    He should already be up but I understand the risk of handing someone (who needs off the court help) the keys to the org. Rox are hopeful this guy is the future and don't want to risk it.

    That said, losing with old and busted vets is no fun. I'd rather lose with young studs and let them learn alongside the vets. I have to remind myself to be patient, that he and the rest will be here soon.

    Amen. We are in a strange spot here with all the injuries and the deadline creeping. Just need to stay calm and see what Rafael does with all these assets. It would be insanely helpful If we could get Gordon/Oladipo/Tucker balling before the deadline.

    I'm intrigued to see how we trade Exum, and If we use that 10m TE we have that Rafael was so happy about.

    John Wall
    Kevin Porter Jr
    Jae'Sean Tate
    ? (MPJ?)
    Christian Wood

    is what I am excited to see. ASAP! :)

    Retirement home soon. I feel bad about how much he has declined athletically.

    I think he needs weeks, If not months of play time before he starts to show any semblance of his old self.

    I know he and Vic look bad now, but we gotta stay patient. We are essentially playing them into shape right now and taking our lumps for it.

    be prepared for no link.
    I've been looking at the usual suspects, and the world of free sports streaming doesn't seem to include ESPN+

    But, for $6 for one month, you can get 11 Vipers games on ESPN+
    2 more are on NBA TV / Twitch, and another on ESPNU. those probably will have free streaming links.

    basically the whole season for just $6

    here's the schedule: https://gleague.nba.com/schedule/#/team/riograndevalley
