  1. Yes I would do that trade, who on this rockets team will reach the level of Gianni's? We still have identity questions because there is no hierarchy

  2. Hell yeah I’d do that trade. I love Jabari and I know he’ll sadly be part of the trade but we gotta do what we gotta do. He’ll have a hell of a career

  3. Keeping the core 7 might also stunt their development too unless we can quickly establish who is a role player and who we need to be the stars, sometimes splitting them up is what’s best for everyone although that’s not what I’d want to do

  4. This a trade I can get behind not all them old guys they been talking about, Bari, Fred , 3 1sts another player…thinking about it Alpi might have to be the centerpiece

  5. Haven’t nearly all the last few NBA champs been built through the draft? Spurs, Bulls, GSW, Nuggets, Celtics, Bucks all drafted and held onto their star players to win their titles. In fact, the idea that you can go and grab a star player has historically been pretty unsuccessful unless that player is Lebron James or Shaq. If you’re after titles it’s statistically way more effective to go with a homegrown team rather than trying to assemble stars from other teams.

  6. F#%K NO!! A “Superstar” who can’t shoot??? Naw we already gave Brooks and Fred max contracts, and neither of them dudes can shoot 😂😂. I don’t think I’ve seen Fred make a 3 pointer all season. I’m being sarcastic obviously, but Fred’s shot selection is suspect at times.

    I agree we need an established Superstar, but someone who can score in these 4th quarters when we keep blowing leads because nobody can make a shot would be more ideal. Stop playing and go bring De’Aaron Fox home for Tate and Jabari. Move Fred to the bench and call up Eason to the starting 5. Fox, Green, Cam, Eason, Sengun 👀👀👀👀👀

  7. You surprised me mate. Sengun, Jabari, Amen seems too much for Giannis. Not to mention draft picks. BTW will Ime accept this trade? Not sure.
    Giannis is not an ordinary player, has issues it will be hard to get along with him for Ime.
