Rockets are ridiculously good:

FVV
Thompson
Durant
Eason
Smith Jr.
Capela
DFS
Sengun
Adams

That's an absolutely insane 9-man rotation. I think they may be more talented than OKC at this point.

I think ima revoke my Ayton fan card… I just read this from the athletic. This is disappointing af.
See, the Blazers could live with Ayton missing shots or his man scoring on him. They could even live with him being limited by injuries to 55 and 40 games in his two seasons in Portland.

But in the end, they couldn’t live with his bad ways. The tardiness to team flights and practices, according to a team source. The skipping of rehabilitation appointments. Fans saw him slam chairs when he was taken out of games. And a team source said there were tantrums in the locker room when he was sidelined for poor effort.

I thought Portland was just moving on from him to rebuild but clearly he was toxic and not a serious person. That sucks. I can’t defend that.

It feels like their only true guard is VanVleet

G: Fred VanVleet
G: Amen Thompson
F: Kevin Durant / Dorian Finney-Smith
F: Jabari Smith Jr / Tari Eason
C: Alperen Sengun / Steven Adams / Clint Capela

They'll need Aaron Holiday and Reed Sheppard to become legitimate rotation players, or they need to find more backcourt help to balance out all the forwards and centers on the team.

Take the article with a grain of salt. I checked in on the Blazers subreddit. The writer Jason Quick is known for hit pieces.
