Yes, that's where I'm at too. I think we're still unlikely to win a championship here, but I guess the window is cracked open a little bit? The...
On the surface it might seem like that, but you have to remember this kid should still be in college. Odds on him getting better are really good....
I feel like the player union should negotiate something into the CBA where some percent of players' earnings go into a pension fund that pays out...
For a player coming out of his age 21 season who is clearly an NBA talent, I would argue that taking at least one step forward, as you put it, is...
One thing I wonder about bringing in DFS is if it means anything for Tari. It doesn't have to--between Tari's leg and KD's age/injury history,...
He struggled badly early on in the season as he was getting adjusted to NBA speed, but after the all-star break he shot 49% from three and...
Keep in mind the cap is projected to keep going up. In a couple of years this is going to be bench roleplayer money. I think Jabari is...
Yeah, it will be Amen/FVV/Jabari/KD/Sengun (or flip the roles for Jabari/KD, doesn't really matter). We're not going to start Tari with his bum...
It's a pretty tradeable deal even if he's relatively disappointing. Jabari as-is is basically Bobby Portis, teams want guys like that. If he...
Yeah for Jabari this is generational wealth, from the Rockets perspective we get what we believe is a starting-caliber roleplayer with a...
He's not that far behind Naz as an overall player (defense + offense) and he's much younger. They're assuming there's at least a little more in...
About what I expected--a nice value for Bari, especially as the cap continues to increase. He just needs to get a little more consistent with his...
I think Amen is going to surprise you. I suspect his midrange jumper is going to be a legitimate threat and it will open up driving lanes for...
I wonder if they might have somebody targeted with Cam Whitmore and Nate Williams as the outgoing money? Or they may be trying to ensure Reed...
It would be funny if we brought him back on the vet minimum He would be sat next to Unc on the bench most of the time though
Amen Thompson will be starting in the backcourt for 100% certain on this roster, especially if DFS is the MLE guy for us. Don't be surprised if...
Depends on what kind of strides he makes (if any) over the offseason. It's risky to plug him into a regular bench role, but it could work out and...
Starting backcourt spot is Amen's to lose. I think you're going to get your wish and see a lot more of Amen with the ball in his hands, just not...
My read is that we're done with Cam, I wouldn't be surprised if he never plays another minute in a Rockets uniform
I would assume his role would be somewhat reduced for us. I'd bet 20mpg or so, not defending the other teams' best players very often (Amen,...
