But all the teams in the lottery have reps who watch the ping pong process. It's all verified beforehand.
“5-star prospect Emoni Bates, the top-rankedplayer in the 2022 college basketball recruiting class, remains committed to Michigan State but reportedly "no one" believes he'll take the court with the Spartans. Brendan Quinn of The Athletic reported Wednesday the expectation from all sources inside and outside of the forward's camp is that he'll await the "most lucrative deal the G League can muster" and then announce he'll go the pro route rather than heading to MSU for a year before he can enter the NBA draft.” Rockets could easily still be quite sh*tty by the time he enters the draft
How about this guy? Jaden Hardy, his NBA comparison is you guessed it... James Harden lol https://nbadraftroom.com/p/jaden-hardy/
No ...... We ARE going to be shitty when he is in the draft lol the blue print should be for 3 years atleast of obtaining high end lottery picks
I am all aboard tanking this year and the following 2 years when we’ll have full control of our picks...develop our drafted young guys and maintain flexibility...that’s what I want to see
Woj was just on ESPN saying Dipo, Ego, and Tucker all have interest and it's really more about if the Rockets will trade them or not. If they are ready to embrace the lottery or not. Not sure why they'd hang on to these guys past the deadline, if they do, that's going to be a huge dent in confidence for Stone. No reason to hang on to these guys. Even if you like Dipo, he's not staying. Ego will never have more value than now and same for Tucker. Cut em loose.
What does is matter though? Top 3 have the same odds for top 4 almost better to be #3. Makes it more likely we’d end up with pick 6 or 7 instead of 5. Less pain.
the further down we fall, the more separation we get from the likes of Orlando and Sacramento who are right behind us
Ok that’s fair. I’m personally rooting for third worst, pick 5 will have atleast one franchise level prospect left(one of Kuminga, Cade, Mobley, Green will fall for Suggs) but 7 won’t, but it’s nice to rack up the Ls for a cushion.
The Draft Position and where the Rockets are picking is stressing us out. Daryl Morey really screwed the Rockets on his way out.
We aren't winning games, we are getting creamed every game by double digits. Orlando and Sacramento are at least competitive so they will win more games than us. All we need to do is rest Wood.
well Wood will be back after ASB so we’ll see how they handle that the team is so broken at this point he probably won’t make much of a difference
