    I endorse this.

    DFS will win doubters over when they see him play. He's got the "dawg" in him like DB without the excess stupidity.

    His contract makes him tradeable as early as February. There is no downside here.

    Maybe Luke Kennard can still happen.

    Curious to see how much NAW gets on the open market.

    Sweet another traffic cone on offense for basically the full MLE. No one on this team is going to be able to get into the paint.

    How old is he? Hopefully doesn’t cost us too much long run. I approve for short term

    This offseason has been amazing for the Rockets.

    Going for the win now without giving up all of the key young pieces for the future.
