Rockets are looking forward to Tari Eason and of course 3rd overall pick Jabari Smith Jr.I hope they don't try to tank all season long for getting better draft picks. But most people are saying Rockets will tank again and win around 27 games. I don't have the slightest idea what they're doing with Eric Gordon He's going to be 34 in December. Numerous teams (including us) wanted him during the offseason. Rockets were holding out for a 1st Round Pick. They could have had 'Tisse from us (rumors about a 3 way trade with the Blazers to make salaries match) - one of the best young defenders in the game. This just dropped today per Kelly Ilko of The Athletic - 'Rockets G Eric Gordon has left Landmark Sports Agency and is now represented by CAA, sources tell TheAthletic.'
So people are now speculating his new representation may push for a trade before the season begins Would love to add him, Clarkson, Crowder or Conley Jr. for the right price - I feel like Morey has one more move up his sleeve before the season begins. ** Edit - And I completely get you need good locker room vets around to teach all the young kids - but they're really not going anywhere this year - why not get some valuable assets for him while you can right now We Rockets fans are super excited about Tari Eason, whom we believe was a great steal in the drafts. 3 Years from now, Can Rockets be a legit contender?

As long as they're smart with their money/free agent signings
Have some nice young players
Per USA Today, right now they're 21st in the league in salary
Don't see any reason why in 3 years time they can't grow into a playoff contender depending on who they decide to give all their coin too
Good luck the season I can't wait for it to start

Good luck the season I can't wait for it to start Yeah, I am also waiting for the season.if you see the odds, no team is an outright favourite this time. We can expect many surprises. Some new teams may emerge as contenders this time and some may do worse than we expect.
Personally, I was not following NBA with interest past 2 seasons but this season I might again follow NBA every day. Irrespective of wins, I hope Rockets at least try to win and not aim for 1 more season of tanking.

Cavs are going to be a blast to watch Last night they played all of their stars - Spida, Garland, Mobley, LeVert, Allen.... We rested Jo-Jo and went with a small ball lineup Pretty intriguing - started Peej at the '5' and D Melt at the '3'..... And we blew their doors off 113-97

Green and Poole had a sit down. Green fined, won't miss games, and is back Thursday.

So, where does Draymond go? Somewhere in the East I would assume. Masai wouldn't hesitate if he thought it'd help the playoffs, yet I'm not certain they want that guy in that youthful locker room. The Knicks maybe? Hawks? Pistons I'll bet.

Apparently Poole called Draymond a - 'Triple Single' - which led to the punch. Absolutely hysterical (and true!) I always loved when Conor put him in his place too - Conor tells Draymond it's not his jersey he's wearing - it's CJ Watson and tells Draymond he has no clue who he is

Draymond getting lots of cheers. Kerr challenged a foul called on him 2 minutes in, which was overturned to a charge. Gotta support the team.
