I’m so happy for you Rhino

Thank you. Of course, I don't know if this roster is going to beat the Lakers in a seven-game series but they'll have a chance if they're healthy.

DeMarcus "Boogie" Cousins is built like a truck! He adds a lot of muscle and rebounding to the Rockets. He can even space the floor and shoot threes. And Christian Wood is an athletic freak that's lengthy and also adds size, shot blocking and rebounding. That's two huge additions! 6'5 P.J. Tucker was starting at center and at 35 years old his work load was too much.

The Rockets can now compete against the bigger and more physical teams like the Lakers.

The top three teams in the West may be the Lakers, Rockets and Trail Blazers.

All have superstars. All have size. All have almost everything you could want.
In fact, this Rockets roster is closer to the 65-win team they had in 2017-2018.

The Clippers, Nuggets, Jazz, Mavericks and Suns may round out the top eight.
I know I'm sleeping on two good teams in a loaded West. The Spurs and Pelicans.

The Western Conference is no joke! If you go on a losing streak you'll be a bottom seed at best. LOL

EDIT: Oh, sorry! I forgot Proint's Warriors also. They're definitely back.
OMG! Three good teams in the West won't even make the playoffs. LOL

You sound like Mr. Skip Bayless. Damian Lillard! He's a superstar when he plays the Rockets anyway.
CJ McCollum is pretty good when healthy. I like their additions of Robert Covington and Enes Kanter.

I feel so excited! The Rockets will now have a great team this season. Better than they were to end last season.
NCAA Basketball returns in two days! I miss college basketball a lot. We didn't get to enjoy March Madness 2020.
I'm going to eat two large pepperoni pizzas for dinner, watch a movie and play some Heroes of the Storm all night.

More stupidity from the Rockets.

Boogie won't do anything, he'll lumber on the court for a few games then be out again.
