    it means the rockets won't do something dumb like sign wood to an extension which makes it a win.  maybe they look to package 17 and 26 to move up a little?

    If the Astros hold on to the a 3 run lead in the 9th, this is a damn near perfect day to be a Horns/Houston fan. Oh well, 90% is still an A.

    Getting Bamba for the MLE isn't going to affect anyone's development, nor will it have a negative effect on the Rockets cap. They are going to have $80M to spend next year in a really shitty FA year.

Trade the pick. Trade the pick. Trade the pick. 
I mean, I’m an idiot but really feel like it’s Chet 1 and Ivey 2 from this class. If Sacto would give us an unprotected… wonder if we are even calling them?

We better not trade down. Smith is a perfect fucking fit.

We shall see. Not much of a creator. I hate guys in todays NBA that don’t create. 
I guess that can come next year and those guys are easier to find.

So does Jabari Smith.

Like he’d be excited about Orlando’s and OKV’s prospects 

About time something good happened for us

Dumb question, would Orlando take the 17th pick for Bamba?

Bamba restricted FA isn’t he?

I mean is there a massive difference between the 3 guys? It’s not like any of them are for sure all stars. Kind of a crap shoot.

I don't think so. Same tier, just different warts and strengths

I don't think Houston would do that

Wonder if the rockets will try and move up.

They're trying to

Why would they when the MLE will get him?

Nah, he wanted to go #1. He didn't care where it was.

Cmon rockets jump intro he top 10 and call it a day. 

For who? It's time to get a veteran wing that plays defense and will teach these dudes how to effort on defense...

for a top 10 pick? 

Eason at 17 and then taking a shot on a guy like Koloko at 26 and this is a perfect draft from the Rockets for me.

So, everyone having drinks, someone goes up to a Detroit and Houston and says- Green and Smith for Ivey and Cade… who says no?

I think Detroit would say no. Houston might also say no.

I think you are right. I’d rather be Detroit but I think Houston loves their guys.

damn, i came into the draft season with smith my #1 player on the board but had talked myself into banchero ever since lottery night.  i have no idea wtf to think, but i can talk myself into being happy about smith. 

hornets just took duren at #13, mark williams may be available at 17...

Just sent him to Detroit

yeah, agbaji is going #14, gotta think mark williams goes to charlotte at 15

aj griffin may be available at 17

Any chance we take Kennedy Chandler at 17?  I really liked him a lot and I’m not sold on KP at PG.

Yeah, Charlotte is going to take Williams at 15. I think with Smith, Eason is no longer the pick.

one of: mark williams, aj griffin, or tari eason will be available at 17

Nope, the Rockets are in love with Nix.

From Hornets.  Probably taking on salary of Hayward maybe too ??

That is one way to ensure the team rumored to be going after your guy will no longer have the cap room to do it.

What does Jabari instead of Paolo change? You can't ever have enough big switchable wings.

  • Author

damn, aj griffin would have been nice at 17.

lotta good options on the board though.

I wanted a 2-way player in Griffin, but he just went off the board. Eason looks like the pick.
