    Fred, Brooks and Green will have a few games where they collectively shoot 10/50 from the field

    For me, I don’t like the length of the deal to Brooks to go along with his poor man’s Draymond act on the court. If it was a year or two shorter or less AAV, no issues.

    You mean the gm that has had 8 head coaches in 16 years and only 2 conf finals visits and most 2nd rd exits?

    He served as the Suns’ backup to Ayton last season.

    It's pretty funny that everyone spent the last few months debating the Horror of committing 40+ million to James Harden in 2026 and instead the Rockets commit 80+ million in 2026 money to Dillon Brooks, Vanvleet and -lol, Jock Lansdale (non guaranteed but still funny as ****)

    Should have waited to spend this money throughout the season. Can’t believe we are wasting it all now on random people.

    This is the culture change that we needed. Like Ime said, this team will improve most from internally and these vets will get us there. It is not Dillon’s shooting, or VV age, or party mills height/age that we care for but it is to see if we can get Amen, Cam, Jalen, Jabari and Sengun’s game at next level. I trust this process, we will know in 2 years if this was the correct route. Go Rockets.

    I just hate those moves.
    They had plan A to bring Lopez and then Brooks in Sign and trade.
    When Lopez went they fricked out and put it all on Brooks.
    Just a bad panic move
