    Sooooo, I’m in the Amsterdam Airport and ran into this tall dude sporting Rockets gear.  I introduced myself and he said his name was Clint.  Man, he was as nice and gracious as he could be.  I told h

Relationships with the front office, and a good attitude matter. Theres plenty of vets playing overseas that are better at basketball than Tristian Thompson. Don’t be a dick, play good defense, do whatever they ask you to do, and you can play a long time in the NBA. Good for him.

This game is what worries me about the Rockets in the playoffs. Cleveland opens the game by fouling on every single Rockets touch. The refs look at each other and decide they don’t want to call a 40+ free throw game and let them play.

How popular is Alperen Şengün? 

This is the Karakurt family; made up of two brothers, their wives, and kids. 

It’s their first time in the United States, and they came JUST to see Alpi play… all the way from Izmir, Turkey.

#Rockets are 9-1 at Toyota Center this season versus the 10-best teams by record (excluding Houston). Includes two wins over NBA-leading OKC and CLE, making HOU the only team to do it.FVV to @SportsVanessa: "It's a special place. They won it for us."https://t.co/2UPM7Y8UeE

He looked pretty happy in those clips, and the whole team coming to help him up looked good. Are we done with the "Cam is unhappy" bullshit storyline?

He looks engaged in this lineup, and I'm still surprised he dropped to 20th in the draft. He was said to be the steal of the draft by many of the prognosticators.

The Cam situation is tough. Could he go to a bad team, start, and average 20+ a game and be a bigger name? Yes, IMO. I get it, the kid wants to be a star and make $$$. 

I'd guess Ime had a good talk with him and his body language is noticeably better. Will be interesting to see how his career plays out.

Probably wasnt even a talk...Ime just got his head out of his ass and started playing him more than players that are worse than him. Jabari injury helped push that too.

Cam is 20 yrs old and saw guys obviously less talented, and frankly worse than him, getting run. I'd be pissed too.

Cavs are gonna make a run but damn what a 2nd quarter! This is a total throwaway game given that we won in Houston, playing with house money tonight….

#789

As things sit right now, this team doesn’t need to do shit at the trade deadline outside of Londale and a couple of future 2nds for a 12 minute veteran shooter…

Rockets are gonna be a problem team for the league.

Amen and Cam are gonna destroy bitches all season.


I think they easily make the playoffs, may even upset someone 1st round
Amendment to my first post in this thread:

Rockets are gonna be a problem team for the league.

Amen and Cam are gonna destroy bitches all season.


I think they win the whole god damned thing. This team is gonna give anyone hell in a 7 game series.

What a great day for basketball. 

UT storms back to beat aggy after trailing by 22.

UH beats God's gift in 2OT in Lawrence.

Rockets hold on to beat sweep the best in the Association, 2-0 in back to back.

Londale and Tate with a 2nd or two for Cam Johnson?

Looking at 3pt percentage leaders, you get all the way down to him for someone that fits that mold on a team that isn’t contending.

I presume Nets can get something better than that from another team.

i'd do Landale + Tate, this year's first, and their 2027 swap back for Cam Johnson.

Agree with all of this and would add put in the effort to keep your body in peak condition so that you have the most important ability. Everything from strength, cardio, diet, stretching, downtime, etc. It really is a daily job for the guys who make it a long time…

Hah, OK I know I said “don’t do shit” at the trading deadline but I’d be all over that deal, and I’m a big Tate fan. Have to give something to get something…
