Happy “Official Kevin Durant is a Houston Rocket” Day!

Woot woot!

 

At last, we’ve acquired the ELITE scorer our young core desperately needed to elevate our game. I haven’t been this thrilled since the Harden trade.

 

Yeah an ELITE scorer and hopefully Super Star whistles on obvious fouls. Looking at you Golden State.

 

11:00 am CST for those wondering about the exact time today.

 

speaking of, does anyone have a link for streaming the Jalen Green presser in Phoenix today??

 

The Day of the Snake

 

Evacuating Katy as we speak

 

I still can't believe it really happened. We're actual contenders again, feels so ****ing good!

 

It looks like we got back Clint Capela as part of the 7 team trade.

 

Finals or bust!

 

He needs to play 60+ games this year.

 

He will. 44 regular season and 16 wins in the playoffs.

 

Thanks, @DaBeard! That’s why I come to CF- the early scoops.

 

It is a good move, I am happy but I am worried as never before has a guy been brought in 37 or over and led a team anywhere.

Always a first time, I guess.

Should be able to find it in the dumpster out back in a few hours

 

KD hasn't even played a game yet and I'm still bitter about him joining GSW and denying the Harden Rockets a title.

He's gonna have to play a month at least of consistent basketball before I'm hopping on the bandwagon.

Also, I wake up everyday still confused as to why we signed Capela to that deal. We could've gotten him for a vet min and our guard depth looks extremely shallow. Capela prob won't even play many minutes this year unless Adams goes down. So that's it, we paid a paid fanfav guy 7.5M/ as an insurance to Adams. I'd rather have just kept Jock since he's younger, knows his role and not injury prone.

 

I think Capela will eventually take Adams' place. He is younger and more athletic. There is no doubt about Houston's shortcomings in the backcourt.

 

Let’s go!

 

Is DFS going to be part of a S/T to the Rockets? He hasn't signed through the NT-MLE.
