Rockets are one or the few opposing broadcasts that make me prefer to listen to Michael Cage.

Of course he looks like a superstar since I said that.

We used to struggle to score 110+ even with Hill/Horford/SGA...that says a lot about this Rockets defense

They are genuinely horrible.

I was fine splitting the Rockets/Wolves games but without Shai & Horford, this win hurts

If Presti knew how difficult it would be to tank, Burton & Nader would still be wearing a Thunder uniform

Kinda pathetic from the Rockets players at this point. 19 losses in a row heading into this game and can't even muster the pride to beat a G league squad.

That Houston pick swap is so big for the future of their (and our) franchise but it's even more important for them because they are in a tough spot (a lot of bad contracts, only Wood as great player & a big amount of FRPs). If they don't get the pick, it could have a some impact on the 2024 pick as well.

I just want the draft to be over and I can have something tangible to hope for our future.

The more I watch College Basketball, the less I like some of the 6-12 prospects :(

After the top five there are a few guys that if they develop have star potential. There are also a guys that probably won’t be stars but could be really good. I think I prefer to draft the latter if we don’t get a top five pick.
