I am sure we can...And Tucker might fetch a good return, so I am for it....Tucker is one of my favorite Rockets player, but the team is restructuring. And Tucker is a pending FA that the Rockets have not reached out yet to extend, so signs point to trading him.... BTW - I liked Patrick Beverly, Chuck Hayes I think we should trade him and build up even more draft capital. I do too... |

So, the record is showing that they needed Harden?

So, the record is showing that they needed Harden? John Wall has not played in these games. Despite their start of the season, I am optimistic they can go on a run, and make the playoffs..For those that like basketball, they are fun to watch. |

Highly talented, but he has maturity issues. He is going to be a John Lucas project. |

The Rockets have won the last two games. Tucker's FG% is now 48.4%, 3FG% is 45.1%, FT% is 81.8%.
He's bumped up his scoring to 5.9 PPG and rebounding to 4.7. I figure before long he'll get to around 9 PPG and 7 RPG.
And he is going to be traded, he is a pending free agent... For least a season or two, he has asked for a contract extension. But the Rockets just don't offer one to him.... So this will be his last season in a Rockets uniform...

It’s hard enough to get players to want to be here: He's not the most gifted basketball player, but he plays hard. He hustles every play.. He's willing to take on any task...And his teammates love him....But since the team is going in a different direction, it's probably best for both parties for Tucker to be traded. |

Now that Cousins is looking better, imagine a starting 5 of: Cousins Wood Oladipo Wall Tucker With Tate and Gordon moved into a shared 6-man role. I don't believe it's a championship team, but it could be a pretty solid fun team to watch. |

I don't believe it's a championship team, but it could be a pretty solid fun team to watch. It's not a championship team, but it is one that another playoff team will not want to face in the playoffs... I like this team. Harden is a player you really don't like, but you are forced to when he is on your team....But once he is gone, you are glad that ship sailed....someone else's problem.... March 3rd home game against the Nets will be fun to watch...Even though the Rockets are not a championship team, on that night, for me, it will be like the NBA Finals. Man, I hope we win that night.... |

6-3 with no Harden and our defense is one of the best in the league. 5 game winning streak.
Meanwhile the Nets scored 145 points and lost to horrible team.

If Harden wins a title there or loses one, it makes no difference to me. I’m just glad he’s done dictating his teammates and shrinking in the postseason for the Rockets. |

Durant will carry the burden and Harden will play the role of Pippen. |

7-3. Now 10-9 on the year.
Look at the balance in the scoring! 7 players in double digits for a total of 136 points. 48% FG!

Well they had been looking pretty good until Wood got hurt. Now they've fallen off a cliff. 7 game losing streak...
