    Takeaway: PJ Tucker will average 2.9 toe-on-the-line three-point attempts per game

    This guy is still trash. Only guy in the league that gets left wide open and still can't shoot near the goal

    I'll say it.

    The rockets don't miss Patrick Beverley.

    I loved the wolverine but these guys don't lack for hustle and defense. Tucker is a truck, holy cow...I'm pretty stoked about this new look roster. Even Anderson on board, they're going to absolutely explode offensively about every 10 minutes. They have 2 legit top ten NBA players. They have 2 sharpshooters. They have a slew of hustling forwards who 3&D. They have 2 centers who fit perfectly and an enigma from China.

    And bobby brown!

    Chris Paul is really really good at basketball. I saw no chemistry problems at all between Harden & him.

    Chris Paul dished out seven assists in his Rockets preseason debut on Tuesday vs. the Thunder with 11 points, two rebounds, two steals and two 3-pointers in 24 minutes.

    James Harden had 16 points and 10 assists and the two superstars were clearly in sync from the opening whistle -- their first play of the game was a Paul steal and dish to Harden in the corner for a triple. The early returns look very positive for Houston and this offense is going to be lethal in real life and in fantasy as they made 24-of-55 3-pointers. CP3 is shaping up to be a great value in the second round of drafts.

    God I miss Sheed... snaggle toothed, smart as hell and just DGAF.

    No the takeaway from today is Melo is going to be exercising that $27,000,000 player option in 2018.

    I asked in another thread how good is Tucker now past 30. I got my answer just watching a preseason game.

    His defensive mechanics, footwork and IQ are fantastic. I love his man defense and I recall him causing a lot of stripped balls and tough shots.

    0 chance I would have traded capela for Melo. By mid season Capela is going to be a monster with CP3 dishing it.
