  1. I’m so happy. These past 3 drafts ensured our success in the next 10 years. It might take some time, but we have one of the strongest young cores ever assembled

  2. Alperen didn't play college basketball? He played professionally in a league 3x as hard as NCAA and won MVP there. He's polished because he's been playing pro ball since he was 15-16

  3. In n Out is mid, P Terry’s is top tier in Texas. We gotta wait til they expand to Houston tho

  4. Cam falling to 20 reminds me of Micheal Porter JR falling to 15 because of injury concerns. He just won a championship with that bad back.

  5. Great draft no doubt,but unless they flip some of these young players and they stay totally with the young kids then it will be about 5 years before this team has potential to be very good. I doubt Tillman F has that type of patience. The young core will definitely be there unless they can flip a few for stars. They won't flip any for vet role players. They will just sign a few of those. If some of the youngsters get traded it will be for stars. Porter has to be traded. Amen is 20 years old,he is 6'7 215. He is ready to play immediately

  6. I hate all these people talking about his injury he got time we not winning nothing next year he can take his time coming back

  7. As usual, Lance carries John. Would you listen to a show with just Granato? No. You would listen to a show with just Lance though. John adds nothing. Generic radio show host.

  8. The Rockets dominating the draft has become a yearly tradition. Its like playing career mode on rookie, all these other GM's suck and let the best pick fall to us

  9. Alperen Sengun has professional basketball experience in one of the best basketball leagues after the NBA, and won the MVP in that league. Come on guys. Do some research

  10. This the most successful picks they got, no need to acquire players from NBA Free Agency if James Harden wouldn't going back there, Rockets should invest more on Green, Sengun, Smith, Eason, Thompson and Whitmore as they will bring multiple championship in this rockets team in the next couple of years.

  11. its easy to fall into wishful thinking. this rocket team is not competitive and will not be competitive for another 2 years. KPJ and Green are not it.

  12. add 2 or 3 quality vets to this team and its going to be a fun season. and back to the playoffs.

  13. The most important thing out of all of this Udoka he will demand the very best out of his players I don’t even play for him and his look is intimidating if they get Brook Lopez and a trade for a vet wing they are in business
