    He's pretty special at the size. The Magic are pretty big mess in terms of players that fit.

    Banchero is good. Mobley might be the most overrated player in a while. Marcus Camby is his ceiling

    As much as Rocket fans dog on Silas, he never had that under his watch.

    I remember when people on here were propping up Orlando and Detroit as bad teams that were cohesive and showing improvement as opposed to the Rockets…a completely false notion made by people who don’t watch those teams play

    i def watch them play. Rockets have been winning on talent. You watch Orlando and Detroit and they look like they are playing better basketball than the Rockets. Rockets won against Philly against Harden and Embiid with Garuba airballing dunks and Jalen Green throwing alleys to Jesus in heaven. You watch those games and you wonder what the rockets are doing in practice.

    you got people on every podcast saying its a chore to watch the Rockets play because they arent sure it's basketball. They would rather watch Detroit and Orlando lose.

    nah…I watch Detroit and peep what their fans are talking about

    they’ve looked atrocious for the majority of the season

    those same boneheaded plays happen often with Detroit and Orlando, it is just plain bias to try and act like it doesn’t

    Orlando literally just got their ass beat down to the white meat by Philly’s D-team…they lost by 30

    Orlando has Paolo, Bol Bol, Suggs, Franz, Wendell Carter, Terrance Ross, etc…they have multiple guys taken in the lottery…yet they are worse than us

    Pistons just recently lost by 30 at home to the freaking Knicks

    let the Rockets lose by 30 to NY, the level of b*tching would be endless

    I’m sure all these podcasters enjoyed watching that

    3 weeks ago I had Banchero ranked as a better future pillar than Green. However, Ive changed my mind there. I prefer Green to Banchero, Mobley or Cade.

    If we drafted Banchero, CF would have three gangs fighting each other on who should initiate the offense, Paolo, Sengun, or KPJ?

    If we drafted Banchero, that would be Banchero, KPJ and Green

    Banchero and Green weren't the same draft year
