I go with 32-34mpg for russ. Pretty much slide him into the role for Chris. Harden MAY rest a little more.



Russ's team now.

Well that bc this was a harden move not a Daryl move. Harden has been the guy who has been the de facto gm for a minute we know about how he handpicked Gordon and tucker and Chris a few years back.

Nah, this is Russ's team now.

Not in his DNA to follow. He's about to big boy HardLn, like Deebo did to Red.

And it's understandable. HardLn tried but he doesn't have the stuff to lead a team. His best position is as a beta. Russ is a leader.

Just like james was gonna take a back seat to Chris right. Chris didn’t hold up his end of the bargain and harden shipped him out quickly. Russ will get the same treatment if he underperforms.

Sad that HardLn has to keep looking for help everywhere else whenever most were told on this board that he is the true alpha of the NBA and he isn't like other players that do that.

Weird how that works huh?

Why were you so wrong when the sources were reporting that there was a riff between the two? I looked it up and saw where you posted in thread after thread that none of it was true.

I thought you said you were in the know?

Anytime you have two alpha dog and team loses things won’t be peachy. There is gonna be some butting of heads. But ultimately They were gonna run it back prior to russ being available. Then harden opted to play with his good pal.

So who do y’all think eliminates the Rockets in the second round this year? The deepest team in the West aka the Nuggets? The revenge minded Jazz? The new look Clippers? The Los Angeles Cir I mean Lakers?

This is all assuming the Rockets make it to the second round.

They may not play a game 6 til they get to philly. This is a team that has been handing out g sweep like candy the last few years.

True or false:

The Houston Rockets have played in a NBA Finals in the 21st century.

The last two teams they have had are better than teams that have won the finals in the 21 century.

True.

One of these days you’ll hit on this prediction and I’ll be happy for you, depending on how close it is to the earth crashing into the sun.

when they signed Chris we said that they wouldn’t play a game 6 against anybody but GOAT. 3 g sweeps later and two 6 + game series v GOAT, that prediction was correct. Only GOAT could even give them a series.
