    Serious question: Can the Rockets send Nix back to Vipers now that season is over?

    Would be even more hilarious to send down Jalen Green and have him put up 60.

    Rather just let the guys who earned it play.

    That includes Nix and Garuba.

    Trev Queen is G League MVP for a reason.

    And Bey, Kabengele and Lamb have also been beasts.

    Vipers just embarrassed the Bluecoats.

    Nix with triple double and MVP Trev Queen scored career high 44 points.

    Queen : 44 pts, 7 rebs ... 7/12 on 3's and "only" 2 steals. lol.
    Nix : 31 pts, 12 rebs, 11 assists ... only shot 11/25, but 4/10 on 3's.
    Lamb : 10 pts, 10 rebs, 10 assists, 3 blocks
    Kabengele : 19 pts, 14 rebs, 8 blocks ... almost a triple double the hard way.
    Bey : 16 pts, 11 rebs

    ... welcome to the circus. :D

    Holy crap!!!

    Almost THREE players with triple doubles.

    Trev should have shared player of game award with Kabengele, Nix and Lamb.

    Bey with the double double too.

    I may be misremembering but think Queen had his 40 burger by 3rd quarter.

    Queen had 39 through the 3rd, but who's counting. lol. I don't think he played most of the 4th quarter.

    Nix will be in camp, Stone converted his two way into a standard NBA 4 year contract (unless they trade him).

    I really liked Queen in camp last year (20/21), thought he should have made the roster then.

    He's on a two way now and I believe they'll probably offer him another with the idea of converting him to an NBA contract once a roster spot is opened up.

    He's a solid defender, his shooting is improving and he can put the ball on the floor .... if he can improve his 3 point percentage some, it'll be hard to keep him off the roster.
