Stone is definitely not gone. If anything, KD not working out in this spectacular way is a feather in Stone's cap -- he's the one that didn't want...
Anyone who wants to trade Sengun just to trade him away is dumb. The argument to trade Sengun has to assume: a) he is valued in the trade as a...
If you understand the twitter circles here, it is 100% clear that the account is KD’s. Various accounts interact with the gethigher77 account as...
You’re right that publicly they will try to minimize, but KD’s time in Houston is effectively over. He’ll still play out the season I’m sure....
RIP the Houston Rockets KD era, 07/06/2025 - 02/15/2026. As many of us knew last summer (including probably Stone until Udoka strong-armed him),...
I mean, this is who KD is and has always been. Why would anyone be in the least bit surprised? Maybe you'd be surprised that he was sloppy enough...
We have a sum total of talent assets, prospects, and picks that is top 3 in the NBA, but we have two core teambuilding problems: 1. Our best...
Folks are a littttle out over their skis here. Stone isn’t perfect, and is a terrible speaker, but collectively our FO is very sharp relative to...
Since 2000, players to make 2 All-star teams by age 23, on non-max rookie extensions. Alperen Sengun That's it.

I don't think you realize how good Austin Reaves is now. He was better than Jalen Green three years ago, and has improved since then to an...
I’m not a huge Stone defender, but I do think our FO is sharper than 90% of the other ones (probably most of that is Eli Witus). I would certainly...
All GMs are Machiavellian, and Stone was a Stanford Law trained general counsel under Daryl Morey for a long time. Believe me that what he says in...
I think people are having trouble adjusting to the reality of our situation, since they'd mentally already jumped into a world where we were in...
Here's a tip: you can get +2000 odds on Rockets to miss the playoffs right now. We are currently half a game above the play-in tournament. Put...
The point isn't at all about paying the tax. The point is that being deep into the tax / over an apron before the offseason starts makes it...
The point is: a) Yes agreed the 2025/26 cap strategy was a failure. b) Keeping DFS through the deadline and into the 2026 offseason hurts the...
Absurd that the first time the Fertittas are paying the luxury tax is for this roster construction. We have the 4th highest payroll in the NBA...
Rockets halfcourt offensive rating under Ime: Year 1: 20th Year 2: 22nd Year 3: 22nd Close to WITL halfcourt offense among non-tanking teams...
This bit is perceptive and accurate. As a first time GM, Stone has one foremost incentive: remain in a GM job as long as possible. 90% of GM’s...
