    What were Lebrons averages with Brooks guarding him?

    Dillon is.a career 34.2 career 3 pt shooter. He was 32.6 last year. He will certainly be putting up less shots with the Rockets. Just hope he can hit corner 3’s at a decent rate and continue to play solid defense.

    I think Tari is gonna struggle to see a decent amount of minutes next season. Just a gut feeling I have right now.

    This is the stupidest thing I’ve seen them do.

    if I end up seeing Jalen acting hard walking around w a gun, I’m jumping ship on this franchise.

    Brooks is the classic hard-nosed guy you hate on another team but love him when he plays for your team. I think fans will warm up to him eventually.

    How much did you watch him play outside of the playoffs? He played like trash and he was stupid to challenge Lebron, but that doesn’t mean he can’t play good basketball. I don’t like the contract, but like any other Rocket I’ll wait to past judgement until I see how he fits on our team and with a new coach. 20M is not a big deal in today’s NBA.

    Let wait and see the contract, we know Londale is for 1 year and FVV for only two years

    A little worried about his "defense". When we played the Grizzlies, his defense reminded a lot of PatBev, grabbing and being annoying. Heavily dependent on what the refs would let him get away with. Refs are not going to let him get away with all of that here.

    I agree with this if he had half the contract Stone gave him. But....

    Is the four year contract guaranteed? Is there team options?
