Don't get fooled by the drip feed of rehashed Houston<>Mikal Bridges content from twitter rumor aggregator types. It's just non-Houston media...
Raptor has stats, they're just on Neil Paine's (one of the creator's) substack now. This year Mikal Bridges all-in-one stats: EPM - 97th Darko...
Mikal Bridges might have the best PR in the NBA, specifically since he was traded to Brooklyn. There is no objective evidence that says Mikal...
Bridges has zero percent chance of extending for $35M. He’ll be going to unrestricted free agency. OG Anunoby is about to get significantly more...
Givony is by far the best in the business at mock drafts. He has his agendas and agent relationships that he's greasing for sure, but the track...
Really think people should take a look at the Topic game log. Not all European leagues / stats are the same. Topic essentially did not play...
I'm not in favor of a Mikal trade, and I think the Rockets should stick and pick at #3. However, if I was forced to envision a Bridges...
You fill up these threads with unconstructive rants so not going to go back and forth. But just an FYI, if projecting based on pre-NBA analytics...
Isn’t projection the whole conversation here? Sheppard pre-draft is a very efficient player at the rim, against a high level of competition, at a...
Why? FVV was 54% at the rim as a 4 year college player in the Missouri Valley Conference. Sheppard was 65% at the rim as a freshman in the SEC.
Yeah the "Rockets want to trade young assets for a star" take is pretty dated at this point. Scotto is a New York guy, don't think he has any...
I don’t think they use the MLE to sign a free agent. MLE’s have to be at least 2 years, and they’re still trying to have max cap space next...
Setting aside whether you think a Brooks -> Bridges two year upgrade is worth a high lottery pick (I categorically do not). The core dynamic...
Mikal didn't have a bad year last year, it's who Mikal is and has always been. The outlier is his one great 30 game stretch at the end of 22-23...
Someone please explain the appeal of trading premium assets for Mikal Bridges. Here’s a rough ranking of best SF’s in the NBA: Tatum Kawhi PG...

The FIBA 3 pt line and the NCAA 3 pt line are exactly the same. The NCAA moved back the line in 2009 and then again in 2019 to match the...
I think you are on to something. Not necessarily about Sheppard, but I’d guess the Rockets FO would absolutely be interested in listening to...
If we draft someone at #44 they probably aren't getting a roster spot. More likely they're getting a two way contract. Pretty common in that...
You're in the right. I recommend resigning yourself to the fact that there are gulfs in how people conceptualize data, statistical projections,...
