    Rockets tryna be first team all mid

  2. FERFreak731

    But they’re signing Fred, and Dillon

  3. dosnetlive

    Vanvleet, Kuzma, and Brooks? Interesting team

  4. buddyhield_ama

    the rockets are the leaders for barack obama as well

  5. YassSauce

    Man I really don’t like that for the rockets. I get that they want to be a more competitive team but I fear Kyle “never pass” Kuzma could hurt the development of some of the young guys. Would rather have them get a playmaker like FVV than Kuzma.

  6. Solid-Confidence-966

    Kuz would unironically be a good vet for them, I don’t understand the basketball fit though.

  7. PusseySleigher

    With all the young talents they have, they for sure have interesting free agent candidates

  8. bryscoon

    the rockets are tryna have a like two timelines it seems

  9. PumpkinHead555

    Rockets probably plan to trade every young dude, not named Jalen, Jabari, Tari, Amen, Cam or Sengun. Because the other dudes not gonna develop with all these vets they’re trying to get.

  10. browndude10

    I mean I do like that we are attracting more FAs and what not but this is a weird list of FAs that we like

  11. McJumbos

    man that is gonna be a wild team to follow next year if all these rumors are true

  12. BabaBrody

    So Amen/Jalen/Kuzma/Jabari/Sengun?

    And then if they want FVV or Brooks, 2 of those guys in desperate need of development minutes will come off the bench, on top of Tari Eason, Cam Whitmore, and TyTy?

  13. EddyTreeNJ

    Excellent!! just stay away from Cam Johnson.

  14. Part-time_modeI

    Every agent is gonna link their guy to the Rockets since they have the most money to spend.

    Rockets’ priorities will be PG and C. This report is smoke from the agent. Doesn’t mean things can’t change as free agency plays out but I don’t see this as an early signing.

  15. transizzle

    They’re gonna need like 80 million in cap space

  16. maryjain_

    So that’s Vanvleet, Brooks and now Kuzma all probably going to Houston. I’m not sure what the plan is here since that’s just taking away a lot minutes for all of their young guys while not really making them that much better.

    None of those guys are particularly amazing vets or playmakers either where you could talk yourself into them being able to help accelerate the young guys’ development.

  17. Puzzleheaded_Pound31

    This is pure leverage by his agent. Rockets wouldn’t sign him with Jabari and Tari

  18. kpeds45

    I hear they are signing all the free agents this year

  19. Mysterious_Emotion63

    What do they think they’re cooking

  20. Zehrahn24

    FVV/Jalen/Kuzma/Jabari/Sengun with KPJ/Brooks/Whitmore/Eason off the bench is a generational chucking superteam

  21. supe12sta12z

    Lol. The rockets are going to be linked to every free agent at this rate. Especially when it makes no sense.

  22. alldaylurkerforever

    If the Rockets offer Kuzma, Wizard will need to pay someone to hit the 90% cap floor.

    Poole’s contract, even though it is large, is not big enough to hit the threshold with everyone they already have.

  23. No_Nefariousness6385

    People believe every rumor now…arent you guys used to the smokescreen season?

  24. The_Skyro

    It seems unlikely that every free agent is going to Houston. Bs season in full effect

  25. gumbyguy1985

    As a DC resident, I say keep throwing grenades into this tank. I’m excited for $5 games (with $30 fees 😞).

  26. qotsabama

    Rockets absolutely should sign Kuz, FVV, and Brooks to long term deals. No brainer!

  27. Victor_Wembanyama1

    I think Kuzma would rather be in Sacramento

  28. snatchi

    So you take your team full of young, exciting prospects with room to grow and add Dillion Brooks, FVV and Kuzma at 12M, 30M, 30M and do… what?

    Be somewhat okay for a few years and then the team fractures when rooks come up for new deals?

  29. RGPISGOOD

    Yea… All these FAs are just using our cap space as leverage to get paid more.

  30. BluexFlash

    23-24 Rockets are gonna be one of the strangest team ever lol

  31. elefante88

    Strippers in houston eating this year

  32. GrapefruitAltruistic

    what are the Rockets cooking …

  33. taygads

    Why does it feel like the list of players the Rockets aren’t interested in/targeting is shorter than the list of players they are?

  34. HoustonSportsFan

    Yeah I think this is Kuzma’s team using our cap space for leverage. Kuzma makes zero sense to sign when we have Jabari Smith Jr entering his sophomore season

  35. shahsnow

    Rumors about Kuzma, Brooks, and FVV. What are y’all building in Houston

  36. BaullahBaullah87

    so they are signing brooks, FVV, and Kuzma to add to this team of shot chuckers…what could possibly go wrong
