Why Amen Thompson is off-limits for Rockets trades

The Houston Rockets have made it clear: Amen Thompson isn’t going anywhere, not even for a superstar like Giannis Antetokounmpo. ESPN’s Brian Windhorst says Thompson is ‘basically untouchable’ in any trade talks, and it’s easy to see why. At just 22, he’s putting up career-best numbers, locking down on defense, and now even running point guard due to injuries. His versatility and upside have quickly made him a cornerstone for Houston’s future. With the Rockets sitting strong in the Western Conference, do you think keeping Thompson is the right move, or should they chase a proven star? #Sports #Basketball #HoustonRockets

Rockets just dropped 3 games to the West’s bottom seeds in one bizarre week

Houston’s had one of the strangest “good team” weeks you’ll see: they lost to the Pelicans (ranking 14th), beat the Nuggets (115–105), then lost to the Kings (ranking bottom) and got handled by the Clippers (ranking 13th). What makes it even weirder is the pattern isn’t just one bad night. They also took December losses to the Jazz and Mavericks—teams sitting in the West’s lower tier for stretches. So what is going on with the Rockets? #NBA #Rockets #HoustonRockets #NBAStats #NBADiscussion #WesternConference

Rockets’ point guard shakeup could mean goodbye for Holiday

Aaron Holiday has been a steady hand for the Rockets, especially with Tari Eason out, but Houston’s push for a championship might mean tough choices ahead. The team’s looking to add a more experienced point guard, which could put Holiday’s spot in jeopardy—even though he’s been nailing over 44% from deep this season. With young guards like Amen Thompson and Reed Sheppard still finding their footing, the front office might make a move after December 15. How do you feel about possibly saying farewell to a reliable vet for a shot at the title? #Sports #Basketball #HoustonRockets

Houston Rockets face big Reed Sheppard decision

Houston’s playoff dreams might hinge on one bold question: Is Reed Sheppard ready to run the show at point guard, or do the Rockets need to make a move before the trade deadline? With Fred VanVleet out, Sheppard’s shooting and hustle have impressed, but his inexperience and defensive gaps could be risky for a team with championship hopes. The front office has to decide soon—stick with the rookie’s rapid progress or trade for a proven floor general. What would you do if you were in their shoes? Let’s hear your take, Rockets fans! #Sports #Basketball #HoustonRockets

Houston Rockets’ bench could change everything

JD Davison’s numbers are turning heads—he’s putting up 19.2 points and 7.7 assists per 100 possessions with zero turnovers and an eye-popping 77.4% true shooting. Yet, he’s barely seen real minutes, mostly playing in garbage time while Aaron Holiday gets the backup guard role. With the Rockets aiming for a championship, it’s a tough call, but Davison is just 23 and could be a long-term piece. Isn’t it time to see what he can do against real competition? Should Ime Udoka give him a shot and shake up the rotation? What would you do if you were coaching? #Sports #Basketball #HoustonRockets

Heat’s Pelle Larsson shines after Rockets trade

Houston fans, this one stings: Pelle Larsson, the 44th pick the Rockets traded away for AJ Griffin, is now thriving with the Miami Heat. Larsson’s averaging over 10 points and playing real minutes, plus his defense is exactly what Houston could use. Meanwhile, Griffin never played a game for the Rockets. It’s wild how a move that seemed logical at the time can look so different in hindsight. Do you think the Rockets should regret this deal, or was it just bad luck? Let’s hear your takes on how much these draft gambles really matter! #Sports #Basketball #HoustonRockets

How Good Was Houston Westbrook?

With Westbrook officially signing with the Kings after years of ups and downs, it’s worth remembering just how dominant he was in Houston’s small-ball era. At one point, he averaged 33.2 PPG, 7.9 RPG, 7.8 APG on 53.6% FG over 17 games — blowing past defenses with relentless drives and athleticism. Houston went 10–2 in that stretch, and Russ looked unstoppable. He’s had rough stretches since then, but this version of Westbrook was special. #NBA #Westbrook #HoustonRockets #NBAHistory #Kings #NBATalk #MVP #Sports

The 1995 Rockets Title Run Was Absolutely Insane

People talk about “best rings ever”… but the ’95 Houston Rockets might have the most absurd championship run in NBA history: Faced the 4 best records in the league: 62-win Spurs, 60-win Jazz, 59-win Suns, 57-win Magic (avg opponent = 60 wins!). No home court in any round as the 6th seed — won a record 9 road games. Came back from 3-1 vs Phoenix, winning 2 elimination games on the road, including OT in Game 5 and a Game 7. Beat the #1 seed Spurs by taking Games 1 & 2 in San Antonio — then won every game in Texas. Swept the Finals vs Orlando, who had just taken out Jordan’s Bulls. Hakeem & the Rockets pulled perhaps the most legendary team runs of all time. #NBAHistory #HoustonRockets #HakeemOlajuwon #NBAChampion #Sports

Legendary Duo: Olajuwon & Drexler on the Rockets

You can’t talk about great NBA partnerships without mentioning Hakeem Olajuwon and Clyde Drexler on the Houston Rockets. After Drexler joined Hakeem in Houston, they clicked instantly and led the Rockets to the 1995 NBA title—sweeping Shaq and Penny’s Magic in the Finals. Where do you rank Olajuwon & Drexler among the all-time great duos? #NBAPartners #Olajuwon #Drexler #HoustonRockets #Sports
