Exactly, ya'll are making my point. Who cares about "better", its more about better fit. Not ISOing and being a ball stopper, know how to move without the ball, being a plus defensively, and on top of knowing how to be an elite spot up shooter is what the Rockets need. They lack legit knock down shooters. Rockets should have just gotten Cam Johnson and a Royce O'Neal type
You really trusting Cam Johnson or a Royce O'Neal to get their shyt off in a playoff setting vs OKC?? OKC eats role player nikkas like that alive

I don't care about old shyt that lacks context or teams not constructed like Houston, Phoenix didn't beat a team as good as current OKC or even fully loaded/healthy Denver in those runs. If you think Sengun and role players taking down OKC or Denver I'll let you stay on that island, Houston front office knew that shyt wasn't flying.

You wanna add more players that can't create their own shot to a team that doesn't have a PG that can create for others.

They'll still have a better chance than they do with Durant on the team. The irony is that you keep bringing up playoff experience and impact, when Durant has none of that the past 4 years

2022 - Swept in the 1st round
2023 - Lost in 6 games in the 2nd round
2024 - Swept in the 1st round
2025 - Missed the playoffs entirely
