    The rockets off season guide is simple. Develop their young core and wait for 2-4 years. Don’t rush anything like how Denver became a force. In 2-3 years a lot of the old guard will start retiring and exiting their primes. This is when they can start to make their runs when the LA teams, GSW, and Phoenix start to really drop off as Houston players start to enter their primes.

    I personally dont think the HOU owner will take this long. Especially that in 4 years, their salaries are likely to get congested with Sengun / Green probably getting maxed out as well as Thompson / Cam getting a decent level. Not the worst problem to have, but im sure they will wanna make a proper playoff push - Only thing is the west are so good.

    I understand your point but what's the difference when you got SGA, Luka, Ant, Jokic, Wemby. The league is going to be STACKED for awhile. Front office just has to determine when is the perfect time to get aggressive and just go with it. You ain't winning a ring in the NBA without a top 10 player on your roster and Houston don't have a top 10 player (Rockets fan btw)

    As a rockets fan for us what we need is to build our bench. If we can trade the ninth pick for like Kispert or Tyus Jones and maybe get like Malik Monk in free agency we are going to be a legit playoff contender next year. Besides improving the bench our roster is fine. Jalen despite being awful for most of the season has showed the flashes what he can be in this league. It’s really all about consistency with him. Sengun before he got hurt was having an all star level season and he was a finalist of MOP Amen was a Swiss Army knife on both ends his rebounding and his athleticism is off the charts. Wouldn’t be shock if he makes an all defensive team in a few years. Cam is a bucket if he can be a better decision maker with the ball in his hands look out and he can be a good defender as well Jabari he was solid he had a nice bounce back year he was a solid 3 and D wing he just needs to get stronger. Fred was everything we needed in a point guard he was awesome in helping Sengun Jalen and the others in developing their game. Dillion Brooks while he was a headache at times he was mostly pretty good. So yeah the future is bright especially since we going to get Tari back healthy and Steven Adams could be huge for us off the bench if he healthy and there still the Nets pick. So yeah the future is bright as long as Ime is running things

    That was my reply to someone else but gonna also copy to here, ​​⁠The thing about Alperen is not actually a scorer player, but stable play-maker. Because of the lack of shooting players, they have limited option for offense, layups or dunks etc... Alperen’s assist percentage could have been higher than current stat in this season, if they had been made the shots. To be honest, whoever comes and goes doesn’t matter. Hou just need stable players not Superstars.

    Not sure if the numbers work here, but I feel like a Jalen Green, Fred Vanvleet, and 9th pick for Dame Lillard makes sense for both sides. Dame doesn't seem happy in Milwaukee (from a geographic perspective) and also Houston could use his shooting and dynamic scoring overall. Milwaukee gets a little younger and athletic with Jalen Green and that 9th pick while maintaining the veteran makeup with VanVleet.

I think he can have stretches where he looks amazing, but ultimately he's a little too streaky. Also, this draft is not really deep and I don't see them finding an impact player at 9. Dame will be 34 entering next season and I think he can still give you at least 2 more all-nba 3rd team type seasons. With Sengun and some other pickups that could be a top six team in the west.
