Look at it this way. Let's say the current Rockets core (mostly) pans out and becomes a title contender within a couple years(which presumably is...
2025 and 2026 now became 2027 and 2029. I think you'll be fine.
There's no way they're trading for KD. That would mean they're giving up on Jabari since they play the same position. And there's no indication...
All I can conclude is the Rockets are committed to this young core(plus Reed?) and wanted to push the extra picks back a few years in order to...
The picks and swaps we got are unprotected, correct?
Yeah, that's a huge gamble. The Nets were not gonna be a play-in team this upcoming season. Every team ahead of them will remain better. Granted,...
I hate giving up the 2025 swap with the Nets. Long term, those Suns picks could have more value(they ARE unprotected, right?), so I get wanting to...
At home in my living room watching the game. I think my dad was in there too. We watched a lot of those weekend playoff games together during that...
Sheppard or Clingan. I'm leaning towards Sheppard since he'll play more this season(assuming Holiday doesn't return). I don't see Clingan getting...
Yeah, I've thought about that and it could completely backfire. In a draft with so few consensus top picks, you have no idea where anyone is gonna...
Yep. The Cavs did a decade ago. 2011 - Kyrie at #1, Tristan Thompson at #4 2012 - Dion Waiters at #4 2013 - Anthony Bennett at #1 2014 - Andrew...
In a weak draft, aren't most players gonna fit that description? You could theoretically pick a lot of these guys at both 3rd or as low as 9th...
Yes, keep the pick.
So, Brooklyn, you still happy you hung onto Mikal Bridges?
Just don't let San Antonio get #1 again.
Thank you, Brooklyn!
That roster can't be saved by coaching. Also, is there a tiny pool of options that these franchises are allowed to hire from? It seems like we're...
He is insufferable. I don't think I've ever heard a broadcaster consistently take sides so blatantly when calling games.
Size matters? Ok, the Rockets traded for Steven Adams and eventually hope to have a starting lineup of Sengun, Smith, Eason, Green, and Thompson...
The Nuggets were not toying with the Lakers in the first round. They simply outlasted a team whose best player is 39 years old and overcame large...
