Know know what'll make Sengun even better? Shooting. People are overthinking it just take Reed which'll make the whole roster better. Hopefully Adams is healthy enough to have an impact then they can worry about a big man next year. Take the guy who shoots the 3 at an over 50% clip which also just so happens to be your biggest need.
Man I more scared of letting okc or SA get a good player than I am worried about who we get ... like if a team gets Reed he could be held but it okc or SA GET clingon or something that sets us back 🔙
Takes at least 4-5 years for a team to develop!!! Celtics took 6 years to win the championship. I would hate to tear down what took years to build right before they develop into a winner
Go Rockets! Draft Shephard with the 3rd pick then grab Bona or PJ Hall with the 44th pick. Sheppard will address the Rockets shooting problem and we can still draft a big man in the second round.
Nothing against Sheppard he is a good shooter, but Gobert was traded by the Jazz for a lot of picks. Draft Clingan and develop. You will be able to trade him for a lot more than Sheppard. Besides, the Rockets may desire to keep Clingan long term. Won't be an issue. Either the Hornets, Grizzlies, or Bulls will trade up. Then Rockets can talk about who to draft - Sheppard, Knecht, or Carter. Also, next year's pick swap with the Nets is very valuable. Should be a top eight pick. Maybe even number one.
There’s no way I’m trading sengun for Mitchell. Mitchell is only a little better than Ingram in my eyes, neither can be the #1 on a true contender. We have great setup to get a true #1 in the future we don’t need to settle.
Jackson I am a big fan of the show and have been listening to every podcast for over a year. I was wondering will you be doing a live stream for the draft? I am based in England and don’t have ESPN or ABC to watch it live.
The argument is Sheppard has more clear path at mins, clear fit and he fills the biggest need - shooting & added playmaking. Clingan has too many what if scenarios in order to fit long-term. Lastly, he losses trade value if he can't get playing time.
@@jihadmuhammad9491 kindly see his highlights and assist averages. Keep in mind, as you said he played off ball and still led Kentucky in assist. Not to mention, off the bench
@@jihadmuhammad9491about as much as JJ Reddick or maybe at worst a very great open shooter. He can shoot deepsr than anyone on the Rockets. He is a weapon for sure.
Bro them Turkish fans are like cockroaches they all spawn under any non positive talk about Sengun 😂😂I wouldn’t say anything but positive sh** about him either if I was Jackson
I think it should be Sheppard. He is a potential elite shooter in the NBA. I think he would immediately provide that. Then possibly grow to more more than that if he becomes a big time scorer.
@@avissanders1888 true, and I think development wise our players can improve internally as shooters. Can’t really improve as a shot block you know? You can go to the gym and get shots up, you can’t go to the gym and grow to 7’2 so you can block shots. That’s why I want Clingon, he just gives us something we don’t have. Shoot if it’s that serious we can sign a shooter in FA.
It will boil down to who is smarter between the 2. If aheppard can create and not force on his shot then he has advantage but calingan can be like jokic create plays and d is given to him
Which philosophy's results look more succesfull till now? Stone's high potantials: Jalen & Jabari or analytics department's Alpy & Tari ? That is the question? Than you can answer Sheppard or Clingan easily ...... Rafael shoul trust the professionals and definitely Udoko....
Great pod Jackson. 1st Gordan...unless he signs for the minimun let him find work elsewhere. he is washed up IMO. 2nd trade Alperen? absolutely not unless we are getting a top 10 player in the league in trade and Mitchell doesn't fit the bill IMO. I think the reason you hear a lot about the Rockets moving part of their young core is teams covet our young talent and are dying to hoodwink the Rockets out of one or more of them. a few of our guys not only opened our eyes, but they also opened eyes around the league last year. everytime you hear a trade proposal they always want one or two of our young guys for their scrubs. one way to know when you are drafting well is teams are after your players. 3rd the draft ....I said this before and I still believe it..... if Clingan is on the board at 3 the Rockets will trade the pick. there are so many teams interested in him that one of the offers is likely to motivate the Rockets to move in that direction. if Clingan isn't on the board at 3 there is still a chance the Rockets will trade it, but the percentage drops because the teams interested will drop. I think it's likely we be dicussing the results of a trade WED night.
Just draft Sheppard, the best talent in this draft. I’m afraid Hawks will take him at 1. He’s very perfect for our lineup. Movement shooter/off ball movement player in Sheppard is perfect for Sengun and Amen as playmakers. Sheppard doesn’t need to handle the ball as much just like Steph Curry. Sarr is a good but experimental pick if we ever have him or we can trade down somewhere to draft Knecht. But I’m really high on Sheppard.
😂😂😂 did ur dumbass just mention sheppard in the same sentence as curry? 🤡! 😂😂😂😂! He is Jimmer Fredette. Get over it. He will be a bum in the NBA. Dude is tiny!
@@hbdabfellas3916 he’ll be the best player in this draft trust me. Much like how I felt about Banchero back then when this channel is somewhat new, I kept asking UtilitySports why Banchero was mocked 3rd by everyone when I saw him as the best player.
People that think Alpi isn’t our best player & even suggest trading him do not know basketball &/or don’t watch the 🚀.Hes top 3 center n the league behind Jokic,Embid.& he’s only 22
It needs to be Sheppard. If its Clingan, and that off-scenario you mentioned where it causes Senguns exodus, itll be very hard to root for this team anymore. Sengun is an allstar at 22. He is gonna be so great, and we will be a laughing stock for letting him go if that happened.
How about they trade up for no 1 pick and selecting Sarr who would fit perfectly with sengun. Especially since sarr doesn’t want to go to the hawks, and the hawks are even more interested in either of Risacher or Clingan. This trade allows the Rockets select Sarr and the hawks can select whoever is on the board, it could be either Risacher or Clingan, two players they’re actually high on
If it comes down to Donavan or Reed I would prefer the rockets select Donavan. Not sure if anyone really watched the playoffs, twolves and mavs have a solid 3 man front court rotation and if pj Washington didn’t cool off in the finals maybe the mavs would had been more competitive. Got to look ahead and see who can guard Wemby. If rockets draft Reed I’m hoping he can spot up from curry land and knock it from the far consistently, giving all the extra space for everyone else to cook. If anything both these guys might find it hard when switched onto luka, hopefully amen can stick on him.
And the T Wolves were horrible in the 4th with a player like Clingan in Gobert. Drafting a player just to play against Wemby doesn't make sense either.
@@AllDay3004 yet they got to the western conference finals because of gobert and the 3 man rotation in the front court. they beat both the suns and nuggets. they lost to mavs base off the bad match up. not sure if you watched when harden did that to the jazz when they had gobert. even charles barkley on tnt said the wolves were just a bad match up against the mavs and that if the nuggets were playing they would had beat the mavs. at the end of the day clingan can just give the rockets options in the front court. I prefer a trade, hopefully if the rockets can get anfernee simons from portland with another pick for the 3rd
Clingan can't shoot. Career 55% free throw. Provides zero spacing. Reed fills every need to help the core 6. His plus minus was the highest if all of college basket. The cat makes winning plays.
How is Clingan even in the discussion for top 10? Jock Landale is currently a better player. Edey has a much higher ceiling and would be a better fit next to Sengun and can learn under Steven Adams.
Because he is 7ft 2 with a 7ft 6 wingspan.. Size matters !!!!... And the question is not if any other player can fit next to Sengun, but can Sengun fit next to other players being he can't shoot and don't have the size to play the 5
@@ace-ep5bx I agree, however; at Clingan worst he still 7ft 2 with a 7ft 6 wingspan... Gianni's can't shoot, but he all- team defense, Gobert can't shoot, but he all- team defense, Amen can't shoot, potential defense player of the year, Sengun cant shoot??????? Do you see where I'm going with this... Ill put money on Clingan making a all-defensive team before Sengun makes All-Nba-team
@@djmill8000 yeah agree abt clingan, but that’s not what our team needs unless we’ll play clingan as a backup center. Just like lively and gobert, they need a good playmaking guard to atleast be a weapon on offense like luka and edwards/conley but our playmaker is our center
@@ace-ep5bx so wouldn't it be easier to find a guard or wing as a playmaker? We already big game hunting for a star. If we bring in Ingram, let Ingram be a playmaker. Sengun is good but I don't think he will ever become elite, and you have to be an elite playmaker for people to ignore your defensive liabilities.. See(James Harden, Jokic) Ryan Anderson if you are old enough was a good shooter, but in the playoffs became unplayable, because his good shooting couldn't offset his liabilities on the defensive side, if Ryan Anderson was a elite shooter like Curry, or a Klay, chances are it his shooting would have over shadowed his defense. I'll say this again, I'll put money on Clingan making all defensive team, before Sengun makes an All NBA team, why??? Because Clingan has the physical attributes and the potential to become an Elite not just good but elite defender
My biggest argument against taking clingan at #3 is he has the same agent as AL p so I doubt any agent worth their salt is gonna let both of his clients sap minutes away from each other especially with Al p nearing a payday. I expect clingan would say he doesn’t want to play for Houston or Al p would demand a trade. I’d rather trade down if clingan is on the board. And I sure as heck want more than Ingram IF I were gonna trade sengun which i have 0 interest in.
It makes no sense to draft Clingan. He doesn't check any boxes in regards to athletic ability and upside. If you're going to draft another unathletic big, just draft Zach Edey, even though that doesn't make sense either. We'd get cooked by everybody but the Spurs. And why would we draft Reed when we can just draft the better player on his team in Rob Dillingham
Go Rockets. I would rather the Rocket take either Clingon or Shepherd than trade down for Smart. Just bring EG back. He is a better shooter than Smart. EG is a great vet to have around. EG is also a solid defender., if he is motivated. Not to mention his ability to help with the point guard duty. I would love to have EG resign. Papa EG reunited with his pops.
hoops hype just put up that we are bringing back, uncle jeff, tate, lonsdale. if thats true we are most definately drafting someone, which with those players, its most likely reed shepard.
Sheppard could be that next level marksman keep a buck when you think about the sure 3 guys like jerry west larry bird mark price the barrys steve kerr kyle korver jj reddick im gone gone say it that one white guy on the team thats just fundamentally a great shooter stockton hornecek nash i mean reed could be that as a shooter just a curry good shooter and maybe not the night nights and the mouth piece and all that but definitely he shoots the exact same shot from every angle every time im not against that at all 😂😂
No this is a terrible idea to trade back I want Sheppard. If the Spurs get Sheppard imma be pissed. Clingan can’t shoot and we have Steven Adam’s to be a back up center. Our biggest concern is shooting we need Sheppard!!!
Jackson i really like your podcast, but recently the reporting gets kinda ridiculous. I know your just relaying what you hear but damn it is frustrating to listen to sometimes
All of these scenarios besides drafting reed shepphard sound horrible 😂, never thought I’d see the day where the Texans make better decision than the Rockets 🤦🏾, if we trade for Marcus smart I might just watch the UFL season until the NBA playoffs start, I can’t watch him and brooks foul and turn the ball over all season 😭😭
@@christianwatson2032 not sure what you mean by pure center. He plays like jokic and embiid who are pure centers and he’s 6’11. I think your definition of center is outdated
Luka proved these one dimensional stars won't win championships in this nba. Mitchell is a liability on defense. Whatever moves we make, it should be for a two way star, not just a bucket. Ingram smokes too much weed to ever care enough to win a chip.
I hope we get Edey! Spurs gonna pick up Edey and they will dominate. Gonna be hard to shoot over them! Reed will not even get playing time. Who is he going to replace? If we get rid of Vanvleet already maybe I would want Reed but right now he will hardly play. You can also say Rockets do not have Edey's skill set. Can't teach 7'4" 2X national player of the year!
@@bizzyboomin9277 we already have a big gaping hole with bari and sengun frontcourt duo, bad interior defense. And we need someone to defend wemby soon if bari will not improve his defense and strength at the 4 position we’ll have a big problem. Sarr is just more mobile and more defensive and will be the best fit alongside sengun. Sarr just needs to shoot 30-35% from 3. This is just either Sarr or Sheppard at 3rd pick
Trade this, trade that! If our core 6 are playing for the Heat, they're already an NBA champ. This Rockets sucks at developing young players. Wasted Josh, Tyty, and Garuba.

And why would we draft Reed when we can just draft the better player on his team in Rob Dillingham
Ilike clingan
27 June~~~~ come out to play~~~~~ Reed Sheppard~~~ Come out to play~~~~ 🤣-Tari Eason
Go Rockets. I would rather the Rocket take either Clingon or Shepherd than trade down for Smart. Just bring EG back. He is a better shooter than Smart. EG is a great vet to have around. EG is also a solid defender., if he is motivated. Not to mention his ability to help with the point guard duty. I would love to have EG resign. Papa EG reunited with his pops.

go rockets❤🚀
hoops hype just put up that we are bringing back, uncle jeff, tate, lonsdale. if thats true we are most definately drafting someone, which with those players, its most likely reed shepard.
Draft Clingan and play two bigs
go rockets!
Reed Sheppard or we riot!
Trade Jalen for rob dillingham
Sheppard could be that next level marksman keep a buck when you think about the sure 3 guys like jerry west larry bird mark price the barrys steve kerr kyle korver jj reddick im gone gone say it that one white guy on the team thats just fundamentally a great shooter stockton hornecek nash i mean reed could be that as a shooter just a curry good shooter and maybe not the night nights and the mouth piece and all that but definitely he shoots the exact same shot from every angle every time im not against that at all 😂😂
Clingan is the guy.... anything else and we bust
Reed Sheppard is a back up PG. Don’t waste the pick on that tiny man.
No this is a terrible idea to trade back I want Sheppard. If the Spurs get Sheppard imma be pissed. Clingan can’t shoot and we have Steven Adam’s to be a back up center. Our biggest concern is shooting we need Sheppard!!!
😂😂😂😂! You Reed lovers are some kind of stupid! He is Jimmer Fredette. Get over it!

eric gordon is so old and sucks sometimes he has ok games in none important games .
Get Kling Kong !!!
Jackson i really like your podcast, but recently the reporting gets kinda ridiculous. I know your just relaying what you hear but damn it is frustrating to listen to sometimes
WHEN ATLANTA TRADE'S OUT OF
THE 1ST PICK , HOLD ON TO UR
BEER CAUSE IT'S ABOUT TO GET
CRAAAAAAZZZZZY !!@!!!!!!!@@!
All of these scenarios besides drafting reed shepphard sound horrible 😂, never thought I’d see the day where the Texans make better decision than the Rockets 🤦🏾, if we trade for Marcus smart I might just watch the UFL season until the NBA playoffs start, I can’t watch him and brooks foul and turn the ball over all season 😭😭
Clingan can ONLY play the 5 so he takes away our ability for Jabari to play any 5 and spread out the offense. HUGE mistake
We have plenty at pf we need a future center
@@christianwatson2032 our best player is a center. We do not need a future center..
@kingmoz who is that AP? No, he is a pf, not a true center..
@@christianwatson2032 not sure what you mean by pure center. He plays like jokic and embiid who are pure centers and he’s 6’11. I think your definition of center is outdated
True Clingan and Sengun are not power forwards. Sarr can play both like Smith.
Sorry Eric Gordon ship sail he will take minutes from the youngins
Luka proved these one dimensional stars won't win championships in this nba. Mitchell is a liability on defense. Whatever moves we make, it should be for a two way star, not just a bucket. Ingram smokes too much weed to ever care enough to win a chip.
Classic
I hope we get Edey! Spurs gonna pick up Edey and they will dominate. Gonna be hard to shoot over them! Reed will not even get playing time. Who is he going to replace? If we get rid of Vanvleet already maybe I would want Reed but right now he will hardly play. You can also say Rockets do not have Edey's skill set. Can't teach 7'4" 2X national player of the year!
😂😂 edey blows
@@AnimeBronx 2x college national player of the year! You need to get your head checked.
Alp for BI bro pelicans go ahead and delete my number wtf
3th pick: Reed Sheppard: -190; Donovan Collingan: +350 🙄
I guess the finally result is:
1-Zaccharie Risacher
2-Alex Sarr
3-Reed Sheppard
4-Stephon Castle
5-Matas Buzelis
6-Dalton Knecht
7-Donovan Clingan
I’m just not sold on Clingan as a dominant DPOY player for the Rockets. Edey destroyed this guy in the college championship game. 🕵️♀️🕵️♀️
Why do you guys think Jabari Smith is good. He has butter fingers, in consistency with 3s and too weak. Trade him, he’s the weakest link.
I like Jabari's game when he is own. He needs to be consistent to not be a bust.
Look at the numbers, unlike Jalen, he actually improved.
Alex Sarr will be a better fit for Sengun at 4 than Jabari
We would have a gaping hole at the 4 if we did that sarr could be a bust for all we know
@@bizzyboomin9277 we already have a big gaping hole with bari and sengun frontcourt duo, bad interior defense. And we need someone to defend wemby soon if bari will not improve his defense and strength at the 4 position we’ll have a big problem. Sarr is just more mobile and more defensive and will be the best fit alongside sengun. Sarr just needs to shoot 30-35% from 3. This is just either Sarr or Sheppard at 3rd pick
Trade this, trade that! If our core 6 are playing for the Heat, they're already an NBA champ. This Rockets sucks at developing young players. Wasted Josh, Tyty, and Garuba.
Sheppard, easy pick.
Video full of bad takes
Thanks!
@@LockedOnRocketsyour right either Sheppard or Clingan I’ll take the 7 footer
Shooting translates in the NBA. We need a deadly 3 pt shooter to open the floor for Alpe. We will regret passing up on Shepard.
u 🤡
3rd pick landell and Tate to hornets for miles bridges and there pick in a sign in trade deal is our best bet in my opinion
Hell naww😂😂
wtf 😂😂😂😂 someone ban this man where’s the mods at
Tripping!!!!!
Miles somewhere street fighting his gf we just got rid of kpj no thank you
Go mavs!!!
