Media has me convinced. We need to blow this thing up, trade everybody for picks, and shoot for the number 1 draft pick. That's clearly our only chance to be relevant in the next ten years.
I hope our soft ass local media has the balls to call out all these national clowns when the Rockets wreck the league again this season.
FALLERS Houston Rockets 2017-18 record: 65-17 2018-19 projection: 53.3 wins (-11.7) Outlook: The Houston Rockets had a league-best 65-17 record in the regular season, and pushed the eventual NBA champion Warriors to a seven-game series in the West Finals. But 2018-19 may not be the same story. After losing 3-and-D star Trevor Ariza, SportsLine's projections have the Rockets slumping to a 53-win regular season for 2018-19.
^We just lost 3pt sharpshooting specialist Ryan Anderson for a gimp pg who hasn't played a year. That's 3-- and D- for the folks whos counting.
had the fakers made the same trade dumping luol deng: "Lebron will get Chriss on the right track to realize his vast potential and Knight looks to have a great bounceback year in Walton's system. Magic gets a solid A- for this brash & pioneering transaction"
Speaking of Luol Deng.....they were NOT able to trade him. They instead decided a waive/buyout/stretch for him.
Haven't seen many people talk about Feigen's appearance on this podcast. I thought he was really good and you could tell he was trying to push James Ennis a lot. Something the National Media basically is ignoring. You could tell Mannix was skeptical on Melo but Feigen did a good job pushing.
Here are the UPDATE Vegas O/Us. The Rockets started out at 54.4 and are now UP to 56. The initial line was ridiculously low so no surprise there was a rush to bet the over to then raise the line.
