Awesome watching Knecht shoot the hell out of the ball as well, something the Pistons could have used next to Cade.

Nope. Holland.

PAIN.

Welp, the Rockets can include FVV in some trades, cause that Reed kid is going to be the starter in no time.

We will be hearing about the 14 FGA's being a positive development and the shot just not dropping tonight as people complain about him being passive all the time.

Everytime ESPN mentions the 55th pick, they lose a game to another network. It'll work out for everyone.

This reminds me of when rookies like LeBron or Blake Griffin play summer league and it looks like they are a full tier or two above the competition. He likely could have easily gone for 30+.

Who are the Rockets going to bump out of the play-ins and possibly the playoffs this season? Gotta think GSW are in trouble.

4 for 7, the 3 misses was a last second grenade from the corner, a literal half court heat check, and a very nice relocation 3 (this one I thought was going in for sure lol)

But yeah, he's pretty much showed everything we saw on tape, including some of the negatives (got blown by too many times, inside the arc can be hit or miss.) but I think most people just didn't realize how much of an outlier he was not just shooting wise but just general productivity for a freshman.

He probably won't win ROY because of minutes and role, but boy this could turn out to be a another one of those how the hell didn't everyone think he should go 1 thing.

If you don’t look at his shooting, that looks like a pretty solid game

Rockets have a real chance to win 50 games if Sengun comes back healthy 100% and the young guys take another similar leap to last year+added Reed.

I've been saying it ever since the season ended. People are sleeping on the Rockets. Eason back healthy as well is huge. Team will legit go 12 deep with quality players. Guys like Tate and Uncle Jeff may not even get much burn.

OKC has better top pieces of youth, such as a legit #1 in SGA that's MVP tier, but in terms of going 10-12 deep with stacked young talent Houston may be #1 in the NBA now.
