Well, It’s been a very ugly season for the Houston Rockets. Let’s fix them for next year!
Not making this easy so Rockets will not land Victor Wembanyama with the 1st Pick in the Draft.
Firstly, There needs to be desperate coaching change. A new head coach for a fresh start. This coach needs to be harsh on the players and keep them checked in.
Rockets have spent time on Kevin Porter Jr as the Starting Point Guard but I feel it needs to change. KPJ is a great player and can do incredible things but him and Jalen don’t work in the lineup together. The offensive is very “your turn, my turn.” Offensive doesn’t flow at all.
If Rockets get lucky and draft Scoot Henderson at 2, I would have KPJ coming of the bench and he can be the primary ball handler of the bench and cook second units. Pair him with TyTy Washington and they can share and learn in the second unit.
One bright spot has been Alperen Sengun! He’s currently the Rockets best player. Run the offensive through Sengun.
As this season proves it very important to have veterans/ older players on your team with experience to help the offensive flow better. Go get a few in free agency to help when times get tough. Recommend a real Point Guard!
On that topic, Do Eric Gordon a favour and a headache and trade him for the best return you can at this point. Start KJ Martin!
Unfortunately time to move on from Dashin Nix.
Rockets have always done well in the Draft. The Rockets have 2 First Round Picks this year so do what they do best find the best talent and go get them.

It’s a big year for the Rocket’s next year as we don’t own are First Round Pick in 2024 so we can’t be bad or OKC will get a top lottery pick. We have the players to build around, it we just need patience’s and stricter coaching.
