  1. i like the idea of keeping porter and playing him off ball. 40% on catch and shoot 3's is nothing to sneeze at. i'd also see if toronto is interested in a package centered around the #4 pick and someone like eason for siakam. harden, green, smith, siakam, sengun as the starting 5 with kpj and some low to mid level free agents rounding out the rotation should, at worst, be in the play-in tournament next season.
  2. acuna is playing like he's the best player in baseball. super fun to watch every night.
  3. that would be a very dumb trade for the rockets to make.
  4. no. for the 100th time, there is not upside to sucking again next year unless you want to play lottery roulette.
  5. yep - i'm perfectly fine with them looking to move this pick if a deal that makes sense presents itself.
  6. top 4 picks are selected by the lottery, meaning that the lowest the team with the worst record can fall is #5.
  7. portalnd moves in the top 4, detroit falls into the 5th pick. rockets will be in the top 4.
  8. also - it's lottery day! could end up being one of the most important days in franchise history should they get the #1 pick. imo - 5 or 6 are catastrophic outcomes. 4 is only slightly better. 2 or 3 are ok, but given what's available at #1 will still be disappointing.
  9. i can already smell the ribs i'll be smoking that day. can't wait!
  10. this is my take on it as well. the rockets aren't winning a championship anytime soon. but getting the young guys some minutes in meaningful games could help lead to that down the line. jalen green and alperen sengun will be 21 on opening night next season. jabari smith will be 20. whoever they pick in june will be 19 or 20. that group is not 3 or 4 years away from competing for championships, they're 6 or 7 years away IF they're even good enough. there is no longer any incentive to be terrible. so fuck it, bring in a guy who will help you win some games and compete for the playoffs in the next few years. that beats the alternative of going 25-57 next year and sending the #8 pick to okc.
  11. i feel like he's at the top of his game vocally right now. everyone knows he can play the guitar and write a song but the guy can fucking sing too.
  12. go sixers! and suns!
  13. well well well, look who has the best record in the league...
  14. lol poole aint it. x2
  15. sweet jesus
  16. i can't figure out which team it's good for and which team it's bad for that the lakers have a 1 point lead despite being outscored 39-3 from behind the arc.
