    It’s all about injuries with them. Harden is still great but slowing down. Kawhi is good, but stays injured. Beal is meh. I wanted Collins bad for the Rockets, but he no longer fits with the other moves they made. If Harden and Kawhi stay healthy they can make the playoffs as a 4-6 seed most likely. I think they have virtually no chance to make top 3 seed barring injury to Jokic or KD.

    Wasn't Sengun who trained in boxing last offseason?

    Sounds like KD wants to be surrounded by shooters. Amen and or Sengun need to be at least 33-35%

    The Rockets cannot exceed the 1A at any point this season due to the S&T of Capela.

    One thing I’m glad we are not doing this offseason?

    Committing to pay Devin Booker $72.5 mil a year.

    It's what you have to do if you expect good players to have to play alongside Jalen Green

    Thoughts on trying to get Keon Johnson from Brooklyn? He's a plus defender and his salary lines up with us. If the price is right, I wouldn't mind his depth and let Ime work his magic.

    Funny, I like him more now that he is out of town, to be honest he is one of my favorite Ex Rockets.

    I cannot put my finger on it, but something about the word choice made me think so. :D

    Good to see Tari working on movement shooting, it's one thing I noticed we really badly struggled with last season. We just didn't have guys who can consistently and reliably catch, re-position, shoot. It was either catch-and-shoot or create a jump shot off the dribble.

    Next offseason, I want to see him work on that off hand .... both finishing around the rim and ball handling.

    I think they find a way to keep him ....
