Everybody is talking about the Rockets. I told nikkas KD doesn’t move the needle anymore, all he is at this stage of his career is a jump shooter, he puts up pretty numbers and is efficient but he shouldn’t be your #1 option. They’re trying to force Sengun to take the load off KD but he’s ready yet either. Amen can’t shoot so he could never be your go to guy. It’s only January, but from the beginning of the season I saw too many glaring holes facing the Rockets, FVV is not the guy that’s gonna fix things either. They’ve been looking like a 2nd round team to me all year.

its about the time of the year when a lot of teams start having growing pains. but even then, second round for houston is better than last year :manny:

they'll have plenty of trades available going into next season too

I said this a couple months ago, and I got like 5 replies of brehs trying to talk me down. KD does not have that impact anymore
They were better off just letting the team they had last year just grow and get better year by year. People don't want to hear it, but Dillian Brooks has more of an impact on winning than KD does at this point of his career. Rockets were better off just getting a younger 3 and D player in the offseason and keeping their team intact

Sixers healthy at full strength look scary af. They can challenge the knicks and pistons for eastern conference supremacy

They’re killing Toronto tonight

(On the raptors side, Jakob poeltl and rj Barrett are still not playing tonight because of long term injuries )

Is every single commentary team better than the sixers broadcast? Raptors commentators haven't annoyed me yet
