Worst move the Rockets can make is trading next year's pick swap back to the Nets. Oliver Rioux is a 7'9" incoming Florida freshman, This may be the only chance the Rockets have of landing the first pick.
I'm starting to think the Rockets will not get a vet in the trade down but most likely future draft capital. I could see Charlotte making that deal. Hope we get Dalton Knecht and a future first
Iko said the Blazers, Hornets and Grizzlies are very interested in trading for the third pick. I'm guessing on draft night, if we pick Reed Sheppard, the Rockets did not like the offers for the third pick more than Sheppard. If they pick Clingan, I believe a trade will be announced soon after. The Rockets are working out Sheppard soon according to Sports Illustrated.
The best play for the Rockets is trading down with the Blazers. They get Clingan, Rockets get #7 and #14 and can take Carter followed by one of the bigs available at 14. Before people say the Blazers would not pay that price, consider this. Last year the Blazers took Scoot Henderson. The #7 pick was Coulibaly and #14 was Hawkins. Yeah, the #3 pick is worth the #7 pick and #14 pick. That gives the Rockets a core 8 for after FVV, Brooks, and Adams move on. Keep the Nets pick next year and bring in another wing and the Rockets are set to roll.
I said the Rockets should draft Tari Eason and he turned out to be a good piece. I said they should draft Cam Whitmore and he turned out to be a good piece. Now I'm saying they should Ron Holland.
@@scottmuir6127Agreed he not a top 5 pick but I can see teams in that 7-10 that could take a chance on him but most like he going to be drafted in the early to mid teens
I see the Bulls are trading Alex Caruso for Josh Giddy. Bulls are looking for a replacement for Ball at point guard. Too bad we are not getting Caruso. I don't care who the Rockets pick in the second round.
I like Devin Carter a lot seems like he a do it all glue guy somebody his comp is like Josh Hart and they say his game is Derrick White. I could see somebody maybe taking him at 7-10 if they love him but most likely he going towards the early to mid teens. I could see him going to like the Kings or Toronto Orlando those type of teams
Good pod guys. if the Rockets draft any of these guys before the 2nd round I WOULD BE HOTTER THAN FISH GREASE. any trade down that doesn't get us a Knecht or Cody Williams type player doesn't get proper value for our pick. I would rather trade out of this draft all together for future 1st rounders. if we are going to draft and develope a player our time and resources are better spent on someone inside the top ten and none of these guys are worthy of that pick. Hey Jackson is there any info on who the Rockets are working out before the draft?
I watched Lowry at Villanova and Kolek at Marquette. They are not a comp at all. Two totally different players in college and nothing to even project Kolek to. They aren’t the same
All depends on how the Rockets view the draft. If they go with defense, Castle is the guy. If they go with shooting, Reed is the guy. If they go with size, Clingan will be the pick.
Imagine it is 2027 and the Rockets finally make the NBA finals. Does anyone believe that Tyler Kolek is one of the players that gets us to the promised land?
No Zach Edy talk?

Great show and go Rockets!

I also read the Rockets turned down Ingram for Sengun. But the Rockets are still talking with the Pelicans, I guess asking for other players.

Jake Fischer says the Grizzlies do not want to trade Marcus Smart. Jake has been known to pass on bad information.

Perhaps the best play for the Rockets is to get an upgrade at GM!
Go Rockets! We will be in the playoffs next season!

Is Alperen trading Pelicans?
what about aj johnson, yall think rockets can get him in the 2nd?
He’s like a lil Jalen
Devin Carter is already a top ten draft talent. Should be a top 5 pick in this weak draft. He is the one the Rockets should make moves for.
He will go 8 at the highest and 15 lowest. Houston can trade down if they want him.

Why don’t the Rocket draft Stephon Castle? He’s the best potential all Star in my mind.
I heard he can't shoot. Below average offense game
@@VictorSanchezVS13and we already have Amen who can’t shoot
All depends on how the Rockets view the draft. If they go with defense, Castle is the guy. If they go with shooting, Reed is the guy. If they go with size, Clingan will be the pick.

Talking bench.
Seems like somebody was not watching NBA in the 90s - Kukoc was a much better player than Hedo or Lauri!!
Pause
Go Rockets!
Talking about Kyle Lowry’s BBL during pride month is the progressiveness you like to hear from NBA podcast in 2024
Kolek is trash
Go Rockets ❤
Go Rockets!
