Ishbia ran this team into the ground it's incredible
The NBA is like the streets, one mistake and it's over. It's spelled Bradley Beal with his "no trade clause" how many people even had that shyt ever, except him and Lebron? Jordan?

And that's one of the few trades where everyone and their moms really would've warned him not to do it.

Edit:

I found the list of all the players
In fact, in the history of the NBA only 10 players have ever received them, a list that consists of David Robinson, John Stockton, Kobe Bryant, Tim Duncan, Kevin Garnett, Dirk Nowitzki, Dwyane Wade, Carmelo Anthony, James and Beal.

Gotta call him Omar or Madoff :mjlol:

This team is gonna look like drunk drivers when okc double teams Kd.

So Amen can attack downhill in a 4 on 3:dahell:



wit Fred one of the best 3PT shooters open for a 3 and Sengun facin man wit 1 defender? Houston best offensive reboundin team too

Doublin KD gon be bad. Amen finna look like Giannis in em 4 on 3s. This ain't Phoenix that had no structure, no slashers that could attack the cup or no athletes. Phoenix couldn't do anythin wit doubles cause they just had a bunch of shooters that weren't great athletes.

KD won’t be happy when they run the offense through Amen
Luckily he won’t have to worry about it. Y’all don’t watch enough rockets game. Amen doesn’t do that. His halfcourt game is in need of heavy development. It’s not even amen shot that stops him, but his handles. He’s not confident in his own handles inthe halfcourt game.

This is what he needs to be working on. I’m happy he’s a hard worker but until I see Amen improve in the halfcourt setting, I can’t full buy into it. He has the issues as Jalen green in halfcourt but more pronounced because he can’t beat his man one on one unless they’re already off balance .

They tried the Amen point guard early inhis career and scratched that project and haven’t gone back to it. And won’t.

The Rockets are scary now. They fixed their biggest weakness (midrange scoring) in the best way possible. WHILE getting rid of Jalen Green who’s complete deadweight on the defensive end.

Obviously if Amen is still just a rich man's Shawn Marion next year, we'll still just be a 2nd round team at best.

i.e. Are we better than the versions of the Nuggets and Clippers we saw last year in rounds 1 and 2? Probably not.

The Wolves? Ehhhh

GSW, LAL? Maybe.

But that's just if they all stand pat this offseason and don't get better; which probably wouldn't be the case.

Far as defensive ratings, Jalen Green ranked #16 in the entire league last year.A very respectable 107.3.Not too shabby.

Making some steady improvement on that end.
