Kings are horrible

every time they do anything they fire somebody or are unhappy a year later

then when they get a good coach they said fuck him and fire him lol

It’s not hard to get rid of vindictive vlade who passed on luka lol and get rid of Walton

Only two losses were to the Suns on segababa and Westbrook didnt play and a bullshit loss to the fuck ass Jazz on a Bogdanovic buzzer beater

Wont be able to fully judge until the playoffs start though honestly

Doesn’t operating like this make it more rough on PJ Tucker who needs to get a rest at some point? Doesn’t this make it so rest or maybe less mins ieven more out the question Isn’t an injury to him really impactful?

Absolutely, Rockets are banking on as long they're healthy they can win the playoffs but thats asking a lot for already incredibly thin team.

Maybe Caboclo can give some from relief but the Rockets right now still need 1 or 2 rotation pieces for the playoffs

Would love for Moe Harkless or Ian Mahinmi to get a boughout and come to Houston but thats a pipe dream

Rockets are annoying because they did this shit when we were getting out of the small ball era

but we are going into the positionless era so it’s kinda on brand

Teams should play to their strengths not follow trends. If the rockets catch a L early in the playoffs nobody will give AF about small ball next year.

Fall apart because of fatigue or some other reason?

Yeah I know it only works if y’all are successful (which y’all might max out as a 2nd round team) but I agree

league started going big again

this only works if you have someone like Tucker who can consistently hit an outside shot to draw the big away from the basket...otherwise, teams gon live with whoever playing the 5 taking that shot and just pack the paint

There are plenty of cats built like Tucker than can hit a 3 and defend that’s really nothing to be honest.

I guess you don’t agree. Draymond is one though.

So one of the best, most versatile and unique defenders of all time is the only comp?

Trust me players like PJ Tucker dont grow on trees and if they did every team would have one

Draymond cant shoot either btw, he had on good season behind the arc his whole career
