    No team wants to face us in the playoffs. So they're all beating us now to make sure we don't make the playoffs. Perfect strategy I would say.

    We need to tank harder for that lotto pick. If only we had a tank commander like Byron Scott.

    We're closer to winning Ben Simmons than NBA. So being 9th is MUCH MUCH better than 8th.

    No one wants to play Houston in the playoffs. Rockets would sweep any opponent, although Golden St could take them to five or even six games.

    I hope we lose allt going foward and get a top 10 pick.

    Maybe get some ping pong ball luck and sneak into the the top 3 grab a real foundation piece to team up its harden.

    Just a pipe dream but how good would a harden/ Simmons pick n roll look like? That would be deadly especially surrounded by actual shooters.

    Teams are going to want to play the Rockets on purpose rather than the Jazz or the Blazers

    Lol all it takes is just a measly win against a contender in the first round to save face.

    Swag champs better than laughingstock

    No team wants to face us in the lottery, we are HOUSTON.

    nice! I have a premonition that we're going to see more of these threads after the all-star break. So let's enjoy the team's not dropping in the standings any further for the next 8 days, this will be one of the best stretches of the season, actually!! clap clap!!

    the good with this draft is that except the top 2 the rest is about the same talent. So either 14th pick or 6th pick is about the same talent tier.
    I prefer a pick than a first round embarassing blowout loss to the Warriors tbh.

    Did anyone enjoy the Texans playoff game? That will be repeated if the Rockets squeak into the playoffs. I would rather keep our first round draft pick than to be beat up in the playoffs.

    I'm calm. Having no expectations of your team is a blessing because you have nothing to lose.
