As a rockets fan the way Reed has a impressive feel for the game at his age it’s just fantastic. His passing shooting playmaking it’s CP3 like. He might not play enough minutes for a couple if games but he going to earn Ime trust and be a huge part of our rotation for most of the season especially since our shooting is lacking
Rockets have arguably the best depth in the league. I think they’ll get 48 wins and that’ll be enough for sixth. I have the Suns, Clippers, and Warriors dropping.
@@antmj2335 will Boston’s center depth hold up? I believe the Rockets are just one year out on closing the gap and proving it. But it’s fair of you to think it might be two. Development of the young guns was underestimated around the talking heads last year, too. I think Green will maintain his surge from the end of last season. Other than that you’re right.
@@matthewcunningham5069 without Tatum Boston was 7-1 last year and 12-0 without Brown. I don’t think the rockets have enough experienced bench depth yet to be able to consistently win games without their best players. Without sengun they beat a lot of bad teams last year so that doesn’t count lol
@@antmj2335 I am high as hell on the Rockets but I agree for this season. They need someone to step up and claim the position as the number one every down creator but they have a few bites at the apple for that. none of those are more likely than not to eventuate but having 7 players in this discussion speaks to Stone's draft record
I don’t like the trade they made with the Nets to give back their picks for the Suns picks. The Rockets did it to avoid adding more depth and in the hopes of trading for Booker or Durant. First off, I don’t think Booker or Durant makes this team a contender anyways. Second, the 2025 draft class is stacked and Nets will end up with a high lottery pick. Having a bird in the hand is better than 2 in a bush. I think if the Rockets wanted to do this, they should have waited until after the lottery next year. Then if they land a high pick, they should keep it, and if not, they can then trade it back to the Nets for the Suns picks, which will still be there. The Nets are a dysfunction team that will always find a way to screw things up from the front office. So I would have bet on them continuing to fail, and keep the pipeline of young talent flowing until we find a legit superstar. We have a lot of potential stars, but no clear superstar yet.
You heard it here first; rockets will struggle to start the season, but reed will look great. Rockets will trade FVV to a team that needs a PF like Miami, and whoever the rockets get back will make the current group make sense and get them to the play in.
I think its hilarious people are picking Reed to be ROTY or make a big splash. He has FVV playing 30+ minutes in front of him, he is not getting a real chance this year no matter what, especially with the Rockets having depth in positions outside of PG, and they are trying to win not develop their young guys. He will not get any real chance this year if the Rockets are trying to win
@@darnejackson1 Yeah that's not gonna happen while FVV is on the team. He is not going to get any minutes while FVV is on the team. Also no 6'1 white guy is "generational"
I'm afraid you gotta go and watch or rewatch his SL performance. He's true value is as PG and he has everything to be a top 3 PG in the NBA in a matter of few years.

Best young depth, not best high level depth yet. Potential to become that in a couple years. Okc, wolves, Mavs Celtics all have superior depth.

Am I just hating or is Jalen Green the “worst” out of the Rockets young core. Rockets diehard by the way
He is cp3 with Curry's shooting plus 42 inch vertical. .

No. They now have Sengun and Tari back with Reed
I don’t understand how you can have 7 guys on 1 roster & also talk about opportunity as a limiting factor for other players.
Cam, Tari, Jalen and Jabari were all left outside the top 24, partly due to opportunity. so it's only Reed, Amen and Sengun that they deem elite

U think other ppl taking Reed spot? 😂😂😂😂 u out yo dmn mind. Reed is generational. Ime don’t care about vets. U have to earn playing time on his team
@@darnejackson1 Yeah that's not gonna happen while FVV is on the team. He is not going to get any minutes while FVV is on the team. Also no 6'1 white guy is "generational"
if you remember, Fred also played a couple years alongside Kyle Lowry too. So, it’s possible.
@@lawbinson Yeah cause Kyle was able to guard 2s. FVV and Reed can't
It would be waste to force Reed to play as PG.
The smart move would be to trade Green for a draft pick. Open space for Reed.
Too small to play the 2 with VanVleet. If you believe in Reed's ceiling, you see him as a point guard
I'm afraid you gotta go and watch or rewatch his SL performance. He's true value is as PG and he has everything to be a top 3 PG in the NBA in a matter of few years.
Both horrible opinions, I’m impressed.
loud and wrong, congrats!
