Good points here. I don't quite agree that the Rockets have nothing to offer the Blazers. If the Blazers want to trade the pick, that means they...
Thought exercise: Who was a better draft prospect, Amen or Jaylen Brown (selected 3rd in 2016)? Amen - Age: 20.3 - Slightly bigger - Better...
The #4 pick in a strong draft for the 4th and 5th best players on another bad team? Neither of whom are top ~100 players in the NBA? When we have...
True that it’s hard to compare shooting across different contexts. Amen probably got more comfortable open 3’s in OTE than he would have gotten in...
I think it’s really important to keep in mind that roles are different offense vs defense, and that versatility matters on defense so much....
Spurs insider forums were reporting Amen at #2 on San Antonio’s board. Pretty sure I saw that rumored in The Athletic as well.
FVV could work well as the vet PG next year in rotation with Jalen, Amen, and KPJ. FVV is solid on ball as a PG, but also plays well off ball as...
This is crazy. Jordan Poole is a negative contract, one of the bottom 3 in the league. The Warriors will be dangling their #19 pick to try and...
Amen is an absolute Udoka player. Udoka said he values team-first, hard-nosed, defensively strong, competitors. That's the Thompson twins....
So much wrong in the negative takes here. I don't really understand the anti-Amen toxicity. Like the visceral hate for this guy who most...
Players who came into the league as horrible shooters and made major improvements: Jaylen Brown LaMelo Siakam Kawhi LeBron Randle DeRozan...
I understand the disappointment from not getting Wemby, but that’ll pass. IMO this draft has a huge fall off after Amen and we beat the odds...
Really encouraged by the Thompsons measurements. They are big SF sized. A little bigger than Jaylen Brown in height and wingspan. Mixed on...
I should have specified that I’m talking about trades where the Rockets get back value. In trades where we take on a negative contract for...
Garuba is barely an NBA level player. He’s nowhere close to getting minutes on a contender. He lost minutes to Boban in games we weren’t trying to...
The big constraint on who we trade with this summer is: which teams have a strategic desire for the type of assets the Rockets have available?...
You missed my point. Bam is great because he can be a primary rim protector and is fully switchable. If Jarace’s best case is Bam but two inches...
I think people talk about Walker in such rosy terms. Reminds me of Garuba in that way, except obviously Jarace is a better prospect. Assuming his...
Yeah, I'm still high on our guys having all-star potential if some things break right. But I'm not particularly high that we have anyone with...
Why does floor matter even a little bit with our pick? We have 5-6 young guys on our roster who I think we can confidently project to land...
