@@GARIONN1 no it doesn’t, KD was a full on unrestricted free agent and the best team of all time just magically was given all the cap space for a max slot to add to their existing team in one summer. That little piece is something that will never happen again, the nba realized what. Ridiculously stupid mistake it was and came right out and said nope never again, our bad. Jay,en brown isn’t eve; free agent of any kind this summer. There is actually absolutely zero way he just joins Houston this summer, especially in this videos scenario where Houston isn’t giving up their best assets to get him since it would have to a trade…. A trade that would have. Massively super competitive market with multiple suitors, and a trade that Boston can flat out say no to. And all of that is even the least likely scenario anyway bc brown is almost a lock right now after early voting results to be named all nba. Which triggers the supermax extension that he is in no place to say no to (losing $120M, flat out losing it in guaranteed money) and no one in their right mind would say no to. Which will add 4 more years to his contract WITH BOSTON UNDER BOSTONS CONTROL. Literally no way for him to just walk like a free agent and go where ever he wants with no other factors. And Boston can just say cool that you want to leave but you have no leverage or say, we will see ya at work buddy you’re under contract locked in for at least 4 more years (5 if the final yr isn’t a player option, which if giving him this insane supermax I doubt he will be able to get a PO, but regardless it’s 4 more years under complete control of Boston even if he does get the PO for year 5). There’s essentially zero chance of this happening and actual zero chance of this scenario here where brown is somehow a free agent joining where ever he chooses for zero loss of major assets and players, this summer
As a cs fan he better get that supermax but if he leaves it would be interesting to see what we could get in a package this is where Brad needs to talk to Danny bout getting the max in a trade.
Trading Jalen green is a horrible idea, shouldn’t even be considered , he’s off limits. He was a 20 yr old why wouldn’t he be inefficient? Playing in a horrible system also made his play inconsistent which Udoka will change, trading a future scoring leader would be the worst move possible. If none of these 3 things happen it means nothing, this team will be way better than last season just off having a real coach finally and the players will improve going into their 3rd seasons + a top pick from this upcoming draft + a ton of cap space sitting for the future. Rockets will be fine regardless
Udoka, probably doesn't have a lot of offers. They have a lot of young talent. They have a chance at getting Wemby. Even if they don't get him, they'll get a very high pick. Plenty of reasons for him to want to go there
@@johnscilleto yes absolutely. Scoot is a lead guard, a true point guards d floor general. Houston has nothing anywhere near a real flor general or point guard, much less just an nab level point guard. There is zero overlap at that position, it is just a big wide open hole on the roster
love the videos! been watching basically every one since beginning of last season (I newly got into basketball and am glad I found your channel its so entertaining!). The editing and writing and the amount of videos you consistently release is so nice! Love from Canada!
Good luck on Yr basketball journey .. I assumed you ment newly started to watch and play ??. Have a blessed day and always strive for your dreams and interests ❤️❤️🙏🏽🙏🏽
We are not trading Green. That is final. That article was very dangerous with its wording. It was an idea that management played with for a second, we ain’t doing it
Lol this feels like validation. My cousin and I are huge Rockets fans but he’s a HUGE pessimist. He insist it will be 5 years minimum before the Rockets even sniff the playoffs again. I’m like ??? Bro our young core is good, we just signed one of last year’s Finals coaches, the future’s bright.
Your young core is trash. Hated Green and Jabari during their pre draft processes. They have only validated my opinion of them. Inefficient chuckers. Same with KPJ. Sengun is their best player and it took them half of this season to realize it. And their is no surprise why they finally realized how flawed Green is and why they are willing to trade him now. No matter if they get pick 1 or 2, that player in Wemby or Scoot will immediately become their best player easily.
@@LofiTryfe Houston ALWAYS has a bunch of haters regardless. Even when we were the only team challenging the KD warriors at all it was still all hate from internet trolls.
Teaming up with James Harden at this point in his career is a bad move for a younger star like JB. JB will likely have to take a LOT less money to leave the Celtics, but if he really wants to leave why not sign to play with Lillard, or maybe go to the Kings to play with Fox and Sabonis. Or the Mavs with Luka. But if Brown wants to be the #1 guy on a team, I guess playing with Harden would get him that. They arent winning any titles with that duo though. Brown is in a win/win situation with the Celtics, get the money and contend. Webanyama is raw and will need a few years to get up to NBA speed while he bulks up, I disagree with thinking of him as some instant superstar. The track record of guys that tall, nevermind that skinny, isnt good. Wembanyama needs a patient coach like Popovich in my opinion, someone who won't rush him and play him huge minutes right off the rip. If Wembanyama has a few years to bulk up and get more durable he'll have a better shot at a great career. Id hate to see another injury prone talent who cant stay on the court.
By making All NBA 2nd team this year made Brown eligible for about a 30% higher contract extention if he resigns in boston. If the Celtics dont want him back, he'll make a lot less in houston or wherever.
I thought thats what he was starting to do with this one. J was really looking forward to the spurs episode. Even though its just hopefully get first two picks.
The nets suck now. Lol who gives a shit about them when their biggest star is Milan Bridges 😂 the Suns should’ve kept Crowder though, they have no defense at all.
@@johnscilleto they don’t suck finished 6th. And were above .500 with bridges.. now add a couple of pieces theyre good. Not championship good, but not bum bad. They’re middle of the barrel.
I don’t see JB leaving Boston whether or not he makes All-NBA. He likes winning, he’s said it a lot over the years. Before the playoffs he said he and JT have a great relationship and he feels like they’re a part of each other’s DESTINY.
Are we really not giving jalen green a chance to play under a better coach. Anyone who watched the rockets played this year should know why everyone on that team struggled offensively. Man jalen green had mad potential and i would be so sad that we did not give him a chance to play for udoka.
@blablablaa nah if you actually watched you can see how bad the system was last year. We had a super stagnant offense that was either fast break or get the ball to sengun at the top and let him facilitate... and it was not effective
Let’s Go Rockets!!! No matter what happens, Rockets will improve, they are young, as they get older, they will get more experience, and they start playing their career with each other, they will learn how to play together as the years go by
But Jalen won’t be a free agent though… always happens when you look at free agency ahead of time, so many players will stay on and Jalen will sign the supermax surely
Udoka new rocket head coach and JB tired of being in trade talks… and honestly he was more consistent in the playoffs and finals last year and Tatum is my boy. If I’m Boston I trade him before he walks unless we win a chip Jalen is out. I think he not feeling all the Tatum hype and kinda feels unappreciated to be honest. I hope we can keep JB in the Bean
Perfect take. I been saying if JB leaves, he will go where Udoka gets hired . The rockets have money plus a draft pick to surround JB with a squad. ..a ring could trump the scenario..but we shall see
You lost me at KAT. He cried when Jimmy Buckets went too hard in practice. If he’s on your team then your ceiling basically is gonna be the play in game
I liked it in the 90s when each team had their 1 or MAYBE 2 superstars, then role players. Now, teams are trying to hoard as many superstars as possible.
Agreed GMs need to learn to look for chemistry instead of just throwing names together. Just look at the trouble the clippers are in and the lakers were in before the trade deadline
Why root for a team when literally the entire roster could change in one or two seasons and now you are supposed to room for 12 new strangers that have no allegiance to you or your city?
@@pineapplegamer6986 I think apart of this problem is that the older nba let the coach mold the team into an identity. Now a days guys have more talent but the fundamentals of the game isn’t throughly used. Players try to do too much in the name of having an “all around game” instead of sticking to your strengths and develop your all around game through the years. This puts coaches on the hot seat very quick if they can’t win it all with the talent but the talent hasn’t fully developed fundamentals.
This is so weird. Rockets aren't even close to being competitive right now, so seems absurd to overhaul a large chunk of the roster to, what, become a low seed in the playoffs? The OKC approach is best IMO - accumulate good young talent, grow it, wait until it's just about at a boiling point - and then top it up. Like, this is the kind of move that OKC should potentially be making, not the very lackluster Rockets. It's going to be a Nets situation all over again, where a team tries to force it, fails, and ends up in a worse position (though to be fair to the Nets, they were injuries and a Durant shoe away from having a very good chance at winning a chip).
Harden is a Great Regular Season Player but a Horrific Post Season Player 💯 Rockets don't need Harden but Jaylen Brown joining his old Head coach Ime Udoka in Houston can actually happen. Middleton has been linked to the Mavs. That makes more sense to me. If they get Wemby then I can see Jaylen Brown joining the Rockets. Porter Jr. Green Brown Wemby Sengun that's a scary starting 5 with Smith Jr. 6th man.
As a Celtics fan, this sucks to watch but absolute A+ content again my man. You are my go to for nba news and I’ve been following since atleast two years ago. Long story short, love you’re making it!
We don’t gotta see him he’s a specimen, and a Wemby x Sengun front court is literally unstoppable no PF is stopping a 7’4 center with guard handles and elite defense , Sengun will set him up and make him better
for those wondering why theres brown and tatum group? let me explain imma a neutral celtics for 15 years until recently i hate the new joke fanbase. brown has been so consistent over the years in fact last 4-5 years. doesn't have alot career high but always gives you consistent points on pretty solid fg%. tatum always has career/season high. brown would outscored tatum on most nights that's why both of them wasn't far in ppg for last few season. (short ver: tatum is inconsistent) not to mention brown defense especially in playoffs was outstanding. the media of nba and boston celtics media has done everything and anything they can to promote tatum(same treatment lemelo ball has) tatum has been given the silver spoon ever since he got into nba, the media, the team. making all the mistake he can make to grow while brown was on the bench trying to earn every minutes. catch & shoot- slashing. out performed every single task brad steven given him to the point they have no choice but to give brown more minutes and touches on offense. brown earned every minute on the court. despite being only a year older than tatum. brown was consistently bashed by celtics media and especially fake fans. tatum can be averaging around 4-17 fgs and the media and the fans keep saying "hes only 19, hes only 21, give him a break" double standard while brown gets "why is brown playing? he should be on the bench, trade him, brown peak is at best 3rd option" plus kyrie-morris-smart toxic inner team conflict against brown. that was the lowest we had been since we had tatum and brown. since toxic kyrie and morris is gone. team got better. now hard facts. tatum has been underperforming in playoffs in elimination games and he gets no blame or any form of accountability until only last year finals where all eyes are on both gsw and celtics. then people outside of celtics fanbase start paying attention to brown because media did not promote him. in ecf 2018, tatum showed up for only 2 games and dunk on lebron. brown and rozier showed up for 5-6 games however nobody ever mention them and tatum gets all the credit because he dunked on lebron. had tatum just played a little, just a little better in any games that celtics lost(close game), celtics would have made the finals. 2019 celtics vs bucks playoffs? it's just kyrie-tatum taking turns to bricks. brown showed up and well no credit again. 2020 ecf vs heat . tatum only showed up for 2 games. brown played well for 5 games. again tatum gets all the credit and brown gets none from new celtics fan. we even have heat fans praising brown and asking why brown doesn't get more touch. 2021, brown gets injured out for playoffs. celtics got 1-4 by nets. 2022, brown gets more involve in offense. in playoffs. we revenge the heat, the bucks and the celtics sweeped the nets. and the famous 2022 finals of tatum performance. so for us true celtics fan who actually watch the game. tatum underperforming in elimination game and brown performing is nothing new. so yes, we hate tatum because of all this fake casual celtics fan that recently jumped on the boat that holds the highest double standard i've seen in any fanbase. this is what divided us. the media and the double standard fake celtics fans. i sincerely hope brown goes somewhere he can be appreciated. don't get me started about 2022 all star voting when brown was playing better than tatum before all star game and yet tatum was voted in and brown wasn't. this shows you how low this celtics fanbase has become.
Wembayama going to the Spurs and becoming a boring bank shot machine would make his numbers insane and would make his career last way longer. Not the most fun option but my favorite as a Spurs fan
Legit tho man , all I’m gonna say , all hell is gonna break loose this summer But damn Casey u gotta talk about that giannis New York thing Milwaukee is in an absolute free fall
Of course it would be great if Wembanyama came. But it should not be forgotten that Al-P is in the team. The trio of Harden, Brown and Al-P are scary enough!
This dude has no idea who JB’s favorite coach is, he’s never explicitly said that just that one quote about his firing. JB just recently said he loves playing for Boston, it’s fun. His problem with the franchise is that he questions if the organization wants him, if they offer him the super max that’s a clear indicator they do and he’s not leaving. Dude wants to win and compete for a title not go to Houston and be a 7-8th seed at best playing with an old harden and AAU team.
@@1972OGTony no I just keep up with the Celtics and watch all their interviews. He talks about wanting to compete for championships and his work outside of basketball, that’s what he mainly cares about for the most part.
I mean I dont think they would win right away even if they do go agressive this offseason, it will just turn out to another rushed rebuild that will fail. They should just rebuild patiently, there are no short cuts to a rebuild
The Rockets WERE NEVER A SUPERTEAM. It was literally James Harden vs The World. Sure we got Cp3 and Dwight at one point. Superteam???? Not even fricking close.
The “they” was the NBA. OKC, Houston, Brooklyn, Philly…they’ve all tried pairing Harden with at least one other top guy and they’ve always fallen short. Now that you mention it, though, I don’t think it’s fair to say it was Harden vs The World. Howard, Paul, Westbrook…and they had solid help.
I really hate these. Rumors season is not even over yet if Jalen Brown gets all MBA, which she absolutely should then no team can offer him as much as the Celtics. And can we stop putting James Harden who are used to like as a superstar because his mom and his past just because there’s a name doesn’t mean it’s a super team.
I think he should be free to coach again. But I don’t think it’s a good idea for him to be handed a young, impressionable roster that has so far had no real structure or veteran leadership in place - at any level. “My coach misbehaved once in Boston, so why can’t I?” Udoke is more suited for the Toronto job IMHO. Houston is a recipe for disaster.
Thunder likely aren't trading or making any big signings until after next year when they really had a chance to go with their young guys healthy for a year
Jaylen wouldn’t leave killing it with Tatum and company to go play with Harden who was an embarrassment to watch in game three. Dude had the ball open at the basket and got scared and kicked it instead.
Given the recent history of number 1 draft picks I don’t know if it’s the best idea to put all those eggs in that basket. Didn’t you just make a video warning against Wembanyama?
If you go for Harden, Smart, Middleton, the Rockets would be tanking again 2 or 3 seasons from now. Jalen is the face of the Rockets, he is untouchable and they are rebuilding around him that's why then tanked in the first place. Jalens development is their priority, not to mention Sengun, and Jabari. If they develop properly after getting Ime, then theyve hit the jakcpot. Harden might come back but he'll be just a vet and pg for Jalen, Jabari, Sengun.
Mikael Bridges is a beast. I am sad we traded him... I would have given up more picks to keep him in the Durant trade... but probably wasn't possible. Durant just ain't playing like Durant...
How bad the NBA is today: teams using young guys with big perspectives to trade for aging all stars that are just chasing a ring. Then people talk about loyalty of the players! Man, you stop caring about loyalty when they treat you like a trading card, you just want to take the money and retire in 10 years.
im a rockets fan so im really hyped when they completely screw this up and give jalen green a max and somehow move their franchise to hawaii or something

tatum has been given the silver spoon ever since he got into nba, the media, the team. making all the mistake he can make to grow while brown was on the bench trying to earn every minutes.
catch & shoot- slashing. out performed every single task brad steven given him to the point they have no choice but to give brown more minutes and touches on offense.
brown earned every minute on the court.
despite being only a year older than tatum.
brown was consistently bashed by celtics media and especially fake fans.
tatum can be averaging around 4-17 fgs and the media and the fans keep saying "hes only 19, hes only 21, give him a break" double standard
while brown gets "why is brown playing? he should be on the bench, trade him, brown peak is at best 3rd option"
plus kyrie-morris-smart toxic inner team conflict against brown.
that was the lowest we had been since we had tatum and brown.
since toxic kyrie and morris is gone. team got better.
now hard facts.
tatum has been underperforming in playoffs in elimination games and he gets no blame or any form of accountability until only last year finals where all eyes are on both gsw and celtics. then people outside of celtics fanbase start paying attention to brown because media did not promote him.
in ecf 2018, tatum showed up for only 2 games and dunk on lebron.
brown and rozier showed up for 5-6 games however nobody ever mention them and tatum gets all the credit because he dunked on lebron.
had tatum just played a little, just a little better in any games that celtics lost(close game), celtics would have made the finals.
2019 celtics vs bucks playoffs? it's just kyrie-tatum taking turns to bricks. brown showed up and well no credit again.
2020 ecf vs heat . tatum only showed up for 2 games. brown played well for 5 games. again tatum gets all the credit and brown gets none from new celtics fan. we even have heat fans praising brown and asking why brown doesn't get more touch.
2021, brown gets injured out for playoffs. celtics got 1-4 by nets.
2022, brown gets more involve in offense. in playoffs. we revenge the heat, the bucks and the celtics sweeped the nets.
and the famous 2022 finals of tatum performance.
so for us true celtics fan who actually watch the game. tatum underperforming in elimination game and brown performing is nothing new.
so yes, we hate tatum because of all this fake casual celtics fan that recently jumped on the boat that holds the highest double standard i've seen in any fanbase.
this is what divided us. the media and the double standard fake celtics fans.
i sincerely hope brown goes somewhere he can be appreciated.
don't get me started about 2022 all star voting when brown was playing better than tatum before all star game and yet tatum was voted in and brown wasn't.
this shows you how low this celtics fanbase has become.
I love your videos AM Hoops!
Wembayama going to the Spurs and becoming a boring bank shot machine would make his numbers insane and would make his career last way longer. Not the most fun option but my favorite as a Spurs fan
Thanks for this nobody talking about Houston Rn
Nice vid man
6:54 dude rly thought he could sneak dillion brooks in there lmao
The city might be lit Ayee, let’s go rockets and Texans !
Legit tho man , all I’m gonna say , all hell is gonna break loose this summer
But damn Casey u gotta talk about that giannis New York thing
Milwaukee is in an absolute free fall
Of course it would be great if Wembanyama came. But it should not be forgotten that Al-P is in the team. The trio of Harden, Brown and Al-P are scary enough!
damn almost 400k. was here when you were at low 20k. Good job!
This dude has no idea who JB’s favorite coach is, he’s never explicitly said that just that one quote about his firing. JB just recently said he loves playing for Boston, it’s fun. His problem with the franchise is that he questions if the organization wants him, if they offer him the super max that’s a clear indicator they do and he’s not leaving. Dude wants to win and compete for a title not go to Houston and be a 7-8th seed at best playing with an old harden and AAU team.
He told told you that?
@@1972OGTony no I just keep up with the Celtics and watch all their interviews. He talks about wanting to compete for championships and his work outside of basketball, that’s what he mainly cares about for the most part.
When is the last time a super team has won a championship?
Why are people ALWAYS trying to break up Tatum and Brown
Because da organization almost traded brown twice🤷🏾😂
I mean I dont think they would win right away even if they do go agressive this offseason, it will just turn out to another rushed rebuild that will fail. They should just rebuild patiently, there are no short cuts to a rebuild
Yes sir I think you spot on with this video at least it looks to be heading that way great content 🔥
Harden/Middleton/Brown/Bridges... can that happen? If so, that's championship worthy.
Great idea, but what is "super" about the heavy set version of Hardin refusing to play.
I don’t think you can have a super team with Harden. They’ve tried, like, four times and it always fails.
The Rockets WERE NEVER A SUPERTEAM. It was literally James Harden vs The World. Sure we got Cp3 and Dwight at one point. Superteam???? Not even fricking close.
The “they” was the NBA. OKC, Houston, Brooklyn, Philly…they’ve all tried pairing Harden with at least one other top guy and they’ve always fallen short.
Now that you mention it, though, I don’t think it’s fair to say it was Harden vs The World. Howard, Paul, Westbrook…and they had solid help.
OKC was not a super team
AM HOOPS fire content to keep us entertained
I really hate these. Rumors season is not even over yet if Jalen Brown gets all MBA, which she absolutely should then no team can offer him as much as the Celtics. And can we stop putting James Harden who are used to like as a superstar because his mom and his past just because there’s a name doesn’t mean it’s a super team.
As a Rockets fan, I’m excited for the offseason. Can those mfs finish the playoffs already?
hey AM, big fan. curious if anything has ever turned out true from a prediction you've made?
J.Brown looks good in a Rockets jersey ngl
Bro nobody is about to pick up Dillion Brooks 🤣🤣🤣
You make nba so interesting and fun to follow, wish u could do NFL too 😢
I just love listening to Casey's opinion on NBA matters. You're doing well Bruh!
What everyone thinks the Rockets are planning : Mass Change
What the Rockets actually are planning:
HET HARDEN BAAAAAAAACK
Udoka has served his sentence. He's free to coach now
I think he should be free to coach again. But I don’t think it’s a good idea for him to be handed a young, impressionable roster that has so far had no real structure or veteran leadership in place - at any level.
“My coach misbehaved once in Boston, so why can’t I?” Udoke is more suited for the Toronto job IMHO. Houston is a recipe for disaster.
Can you please do a video like this for the thunder? 🙏🏽
Thunder likely aren't trading or making any big signings until after next year when they really had a chance to go with their young guys healthy for a year
Jaylen brown is signing a max and staying with the Celtics ur buggin💀
Jaylen wouldn’t leave killing it with Tatum and company to go play with Harden who was an embarrassment to watch in game three. Dude had the ball open at the basket and got scared and kicked it instead.
I heard Luca, kyrie, Brown and Harden are going to the Rockets.
Can’t tell you who said it.
Brown making all NBA is tough. Joker, Embid, 7:56 Booker, Greek, LBJ, Luka, Curry, Tatum, KD, Ja. These are probably all locks for all NBA.
What about jaylen to the rockets
trae to boston in exchange of some role players
6:00-6:15 Yeah… But a lot of that had to do with coaching.
Rockets should see what 2yrs under Udoka can do.
y would the Rockets consider bringing Harden back when he quit on them to get traded out of there?
Given the recent history of number 1 draft picks I don’t know if it’s the best idea to put all those eggs in that basket. Didn’t you just make a video warning against Wembanyama?
If you go for Harden, Smart, Middleton, the Rockets would be tanking again 2 or 3 seasons from now. Jalen is the face of the Rockets, he is untouchable and they are rebuilding around him that's why then tanked in the first place. Jalens development is their priority, not to mention Sengun, and Jabari. If they develop properly after getting Ime, then theyve hit the jakcpot. Harden might come back but he'll be just a vet and pg for Jalen, Jabari, Sengun.
Love the vids
So best case scenario of next years starting five being. Harden, jaylen, kenyon, jabari, victor
as a rockets fan I really hope this will happen!
Mikael Bridges is a beast. I am sad we traded him... I would have given up more picks to keep him in the Durant trade... but probably wasn't possible. Durant just ain't playing like Durant...
bro. both of these teams are still in the playoffs in right now.
God please come to Houston
Damn casey hittin the gym
Malcolm Brogdon your next video A.M. Hoops 🙏🙏🙏
MY ROCKETS WILL BE GREAT AGAIN 🤟🏾🚀
If Houston gets #1 Pick Brown n Harden would become Rockets in the blink of a check
This man’s just staring up shit that won’t happen
he really is plus i bet he's not the one putting work in for these videos 😂 just gotta stick to the script lol
@@DreNicdao fr lmao 😂
It's an interesting roster... A 45-50 wins second rounder.
And the Rockets now have the 4th pick🤦🏾♂️
A.M Hoops amazing content to keep us intertained
A duo of Harden and Brown would be filthy but imagine if the warriors lose this series vs the lakers and trade Jordan Poole for Harden.
Do a video on the blazers
imagine the rockets get Victor, Harden and Brown for the next season... With Green, Sengun, and the new coach Udoka... Wow
Why would the Houston get rid of their young core around the same age
vuori sweatpants are top notch ngl
Looks like the rockets decides to move on from their highlights duo lol
2 beards teaming up
How bad the NBA is today: teams using young guys with big perspectives to trade for aging all stars that are just chasing a ring. Then people talk about loyalty of the players! Man, you stop caring about loyalty when they treat you like a trading card, you just want to take the money and retire in 10 years.
Is it just me or does he look like Tyler herro
Khris Middleton isn’t a restricted free agent.. he has a player option..
this isn't even close going to happen
Jaylen Brown to the Hawks ngl
Harden got one good year left. No way should Jalen team up with someone who just wanna cash out.
im a rockets fan so im really hyped when they completely screw this up and give jalen green a max and somehow move their franchise to hawaii or something
Lol. All of these girls were coming up to me asking about my gray shirt...cringe dude...
