Christian Wood is the greatest player of all time. Build him a statue. put his jersey in the rafters. make him and Silas' smile the face of the franchise.
I'm also of the mindset that if Harden isn't traded before tip off or a trade isn't at least agreed upon, he will finish the year in Houston. Top 3 seed is easily doable with this team.
while I would like to believe this, I think that after 20 games or so, if it's a train wreck, Tilman will cut his losses and move Harden for pennies on the dollar before the trade deadline
100% I'm of the mindset that this team start about 7-3 and ends up about 13-7 or 14-6 after 20. I have that much faith in Silas to coach through this.
which would make it sort of a typical Rockets year (in the Morey era and immediate-post-Morey era). If the squad stays healthy and Harden remains with the team, there's no reason why we shouldn't make the playoffs
I think the team is seeded for HCA if Harden stays the year. On paper the team is light years ahead of last year's team. Wood is the best big man Harden has ever played with.
I am excite for Harden-Wood! Off stage: "That's what she said!" And even more excite that this guy is still a Rocket:
Stone’s work over the past 60 days is amazing: Bring in Silas and planning a structure to grow from. Addition by subtraction—> Westbrook because he didn’t want to be here. Wall and Cousins are both very intriguing because of their time away and new prospective to the game, both have something to prove & their skill sets are still there. Gordon & Tucker are not being asked to anything they are not equipped to do at the highest level —> playing within themselves at their national position on the floor —> both should be more successful. House looked like he started to play with purpose while in the bubble. I am hoping his growth continues. Wood looks as advertised. Bruno’s tomorrow is finally today. We even have a promising rookie to watch grow in Tate. Harden well... maybe Happier today as Rocket fan than I have been in a long time, I exited about the season.
