    Adding to the list of great names we have traded for and who never played for us……the King carries the tradition on!

    Might have some game, rockets need guard depth.

    He became just the third New Zealand-born player to be picked in the NBA draft, following Sean Marks and Steven Adams.

    2023: Rd 2, Pk 47 by Lakers in the draft.

    New Zealand native, did Adams have something to do with this?

    Gonna be awkward in 6 months when we trade for Devin Booker, and this is his nickname too.

    Time for Mojave King is the Rockets Franchise Player thread.

    That one sounds legit.

    There's only one Mojave King in my book. Never forget the Miracle over the Mojave.

    Looking at the thread title, I thought Durant had gotten another nickname while he was a Sun.

    Mojave King has a 42 inch vertical. Cam's was a shitty 41 inches. Plus we got 2 second round picks! And we got the player with the better name.

    Now who still thinks this trade was crappy?!
