Tbh, the biggest problem with FVV and that contract is not so much the years or money, it's that FVV is good enough to take touches away from the young guys and has the ego to do it. He's not really going to take a step back for anyone.
The sooner the Rockets get rid of him the better as that'll give more opportunities to Sengun who should be the Rockets primary scoring option at this point.
They need to focus developing Sengun first and foremost, and FVV counters that. At least with Brooks, he's not going to act more than a role player.
In other words, FVV needs to be on a team where he can clearly tell there are Star players way better than him, otherwise he holds your team back.
Yup, been saying the offense should run through Sengun. The guy can play and has a chance to be top 3 in his draft with Barnes.
FVV was brought in to help bring the young players along but then goes along and takes 22 shots on putrid efficiency while someone like Jalen Green who actually matters is getting 10 shots. This is year 3. The Rockets should be running things through Sengun and Green to see if this is going to work. We all know Houston signed FVV to have that very tradeable expiring next contract season. He's not part of their long term plans, and he just doesn't understand where the value in his game is.
