Sorting through the new mock drafts, I don’t think there will be a player available that can break into the Rocket’s rotation. They need to package this pick or roll the dice on a “lottery ticket” in a future draft. 

You can easily make room by moving off of players that fell apart in the playoffs. Namely, Green and Brooks.

Pre-lottery mocks offered Derik Queen (C, Maryland) as a big man with the most ball skills in recent drafts that could play 5 if we want to use bigger lineups.

I’m a casual who reads summaries and box scores but only watches about 10 games a year. Has Jalen shown much improvement year to year? He’s an incredible athlete that can go off for a game then disappear for multiple games, while not making his teammates better. That same trend showed up in the playoffs. He seems like the type who should be alpha dog on a shitty team and put up great fantasy stats. 

Jesus Christ dude you’re about to RocketDerka this thread…

Brooks, Tate and the suns picks for KD. Hope KD forces his way in. Lets see where the young guys are in two seasons. 

I think Brooks name is dirt league wide. Ime might value what he does, but the rest of the league doesn’t. Maybe a young, bad team is looking for a veteran to toughen them up. It only takes 1 team to say I suppose.

is philly this desperate ?

Mike Levin (@Michael_Levin) from @RTRSPodcast proposed an interesting hypothetical trade last night:

HOU gets: 3rd pick

PHI gets: 10th pick, Tari Eason

I like Eason, but is the third pick even good enough to get minutes on this team?

They weren't last year.

The Rockets have a need that can't be fixed by the draft.  

You aren't adding another 19 or 20 year old who is going to sit on the bench and find a consistent scorer in the play offs and there are not multiple options to fill that hole with someone who fits what you want concerning their age, fit with the head coach, and not cost you a ton of young players you are hoping to develop.

I would do it to reset the contract one of the younger guys and Eason isn't a long term solution on this team and is a RFA after this upcoming season.
