We're not taking Paul George. The thing is, they just have to kind of get over the idea. They're not going to win a championship now, right? I mean, that's the thing. They have to sort of take their medicine, I guess. They have to be bad, but that is not a Pat Riley thing.

Let me tell you something. I mean, as a Rockets fan, you know, I grew up in Houston. Yeah. Please don't trade for KD. Like, I just don't... I like our young core. Like, we have a lot of assets. Please, I just want to rock with A-Man, Jalen. Yeah. Like, I just want to see that with Ime. And let's just go with that.

Let's not do the KD thing because as great as he is, I just kind of feel like the days of him being able to elevate a team in quite that way are kind of over. So let's just... I like what we're doing. It's the only thing that makes me feel good about missing out on Wimby in the draft. So, like, let's just, please, if Houston, if you can hear me, let's keep this roster.

Let's just rock with it for a little bit longer and see where we can go with it, please. How close were you to Wimby? I forget. How many picks? I mean, two. But I think that, like, I think they had, they had the second best odds to get Wimby or something like that. Right. And they ended up picking third. Yeah. Which is, you know, fine. I'm not upset with the pick, but obviously it's not wimpy.

Yeah, exactly. I mean, I think that like what the Rockets are doing, it's like the only thing that makes me feel good. I'm like, oh, this is the kind of team. They're really good. They're young. They can grow together. Also... I feel like they're strong in a way that sort of could cause problems for Wimby, like this physical, deep team. I could see that causing Wimby problems.

So I'm like, okay, if we can keep this together, then I'm fine with it. But if not, then I'm just going to belabor missing out. We got Yao. We got Ralph Samson. We got Dream. I just kind of expected the Wimby thing was supposed to be us. That's supposed to be the Houston thing, and we missed out on it.

Well, let me ask you, because you're the NBA expert here. Do you think, though, this is one of those examples of a team that has already sort of capped out on its... They play really... They're young. You may can get them to play really hard in the regular season. But when it comes to the postseason, there may not be another gear for them.
