Not detached from the franchise, but I just have so little motivation to actually watch or root for these guys. I'm convinced half the roster will look different in a month, and every time I turn on...

Not detached from the franchise, but I just have so little motivation to actually watch or root for these guys. I'm convinced half the roster will look different in a month, and every time I turn on...
I was just thinking about whether Lowry has a shot at the Hall of Fame, and in my head, I thought his career compared favorably to Chauncey Billups. I pulled up Lowry's Hall of Fame probability on BR...
It's worth noting that Paul has actually logged more minutes this season. Lowry is playing more minutes per game, but he's missed seven of Toronto's games this season. Paul has only missed one game...
Right, and if you bring Lowry back on a 2-3 year contract, you're pretty much locking yourself into this team over the next few years. But this squad, as it's constructed, realistically can't compete...
Yeah, Paul's logged 100+ more games, 300+ more starts and like 6,500+ more minutes. And that's just regular season. When you factor in playoffs and their international career, Paul's mileage dwarfs...
:clap:
I'm with you, man. I've always been a huge Lowry fan and him retiring in Toronto seems fitting, but if you could get some legitimate picks or prospects out of that, you do that in a heartbeat if...
Trust me, if the Rockets somehow sneak into the playoffs, they should be thrilled to get to play this version of the Rockets. This Houston team would get swept in the first round by any of the top 4...
It is interesting to see Paul playing at such a high level given that this is his fifth franchise, and he had a reputation for injuries once he hit his 30s. If you had told me three years ago that...
:horse::laugh: Welcome to my ignore list!
And this is why I don't respect you. You refuse to have an actual basketball conversation, and you completely ignored all of the data and effort that went into that post. You go out of your way to...
Yes, for four reasons:
1. Mike Conley is finally the guy they thought they were getting when they acquired him.
2. Mitchell is the best version of himself we've seen so far.
3. This is the...
Honey, you wish you were capable of "making fun of me." All you do is take every opportunity to try and troll a single player—someone I remind you doesn't even play for the Rockets anymore. It's not...
Big game tonight in the fight to get to the bottom! Rockets vs. Cavs! A combined 1-18 in their last 19 games combined! Who will come away with the loss?
In all seriousness, though, this season...
I haven't watched enough Nets basketball to know, but did any of those guys make a difference? According to BR, combined, Roberson, Vonleh and Shumbert had played 39 minutes total so far. TLC seems...
Five straight road wins, including three straight against three of the four best in the West without Durant. Harden's numbers in his 18 games with Brooklyn:
25/11/8/1/1 on .502/.410/.878 shooting...
Honestly, I think they're pretty overrated, especially with hindsight. The best year of the Arenas Wizards wasn't even with Butler—it was the team with Larry Hughes and Jamison in 04-05 that won 45...
For what it's worth, I'm really happy to see Chris Finch finally get his chance as head coach. He was the G-League coach and eventually an assistant coach with the Rockets for years, and he was...
I would not expect him to be better than Gasol. I really, really would not bank on that.
What does that have to do with anything I said? Also, we're not on lockdown in the vast majority of the states anymore and haven't been for some time, so I'm not sure what point you're making here. ...
:laugh: A brand new type of vaccine had to be developed from scratch, and it was shockingly accomplished in like 8-10 months (something some experts worried might takes years). We're a little over a...
I know people will want to see him sign with a contender. But after watching him in his time in Houston, I would not want to be the contending team that adds him to the roster. He's a solid 3-point...
That sounds about right. Even if you factor in some decline, he'll average at least 1,500 points per season the next couple of years. So he's not going to do it next season, but sometime toward the...
At this rate, barring some major career-threatening injury like what Kobe dealt with, it's just a matter of when he breaks Kareem's record and how much he raises that bar by. I think he definitely...
Mmm... What? The thread is literally about the trade between the Rockets and Nets involving Harden. So we're just going to exclude half of that trade because it's not the half that Harden was traded...
