    I would do the exact same thing if my favorite player's name were Kevin Porter Junior.

    I wish they would shut down Sengun speculation just as quickly.

    Then again, neither the rumour nor the shut down of it means anything.

    Any rumour will get shut down, until it happens.

    Also if anyone is debating between the credibility of Fisher vs Gatlin, Gatlin literally has access inside the organization and does player and coach interviews all the time.

    I will even take it a step further.

    Unless something drastically changes in the trade market - the Rockets are not trading their lottery pick this year.

    The Rockets are guaranteed a top 6 pick and have a better than 50% chance of a top 4 pick.

    This draft has:

    Victor Wembanyana
    Scoot Henderson
    Brandon Miller
    Amen Thompson
    Jarace Walker
    Cam Whitmore

    Every single one of those players have legitimate upside and either fit a clear need or are players that are of the type Udoka likes.

    Green isn’t even as good as Halliburton and people here treating him like he’s Giannis

    Halliburton? A guy considered the next great pg of the league?

    That's another guy I would be willing to trade Green for.

    Got a point there but protect your assets likely.

    Yes not wanting to trade Green for borderline top 20 and 30 players is thinking he's Giannis level.

    Yes that's exactly what that means.

    No he doesn't. He's beating up a strawman.

    It is a forum so strawmen shouldn't be considered abnormal.

    As clutch has mentioned several times, if Harden wants to come back to Houston the Fertittas are gonna make that happen. And win or lose in Philly, I could see arguments both ways that he could bounce after this season. To me it’s a significant possibility Harden is our new point guard next year; especially because we haven’t heard FVV or Russell’s name mentioned at all in connection with Houston and we know they need a PG.

    LOL what is this reporting. Green's not going anywhere. There isn't a player currently in the NBA that he'd be traded for. There are no Durant/Lebron/Curry/Harden level players right now in their primes.

    We really believing Fischer of all people? Also Jackson Gatlin already tweeted that per his sources this reporting on Jalen is "nonsense."

    Likely lot of contexts was lost. And even if it was true; Rockets have to deny it publicly, else it wouldn't look good. Either way, it's a non-news, for now.
