RippleEffect89+FollowReed Sheppard goes nuclear + KD returns soonThe Slim Reaper is back and the Rockets are absolutely cooking! Reed Sheppard just torched the Warriors for 31 points while KD was handling family business - talk about next man up mentality! This squad is averaging 119 points over their last eight and winning by double digits like it's nothing. The depth is unreal when your backup guard can drop 30 and you still have Durant waiting in the wings. What's scarier - this team's offense or the fact they're not even at full strength yet? #Sports #Basketball #Rockets00Share
Matthew Roberts+FollowCould Prime Yao Handle Wemby?Yao Ming at his peak was 7'6", 310 lbs, unstoppable on the block, and one of the most skilled post scorers ever. Victor Wembanyama is a 7'4" unicorn with guard mobility, absurd length, and elite defensive instincts. So would a healthy prime Yao’s size, footwork, and power give Wemby serious problems? #NBA #Wemby #YaoMing #Spurs #Rockets #NBATalk #Basketball #BigMen 20Share
Edwin French+FollowKevin Durant really stopped smiling after leaving Golden State 😭From the Sonics to the Rockets — KD’s media day photos tell a story of their own. Maybe it’s the pressure? the injuries? or just the grind of 19 seasons… Do you think KD was genuinely happiest in Golden State? #NBA #KevinDurant #Warriors #Rockets #Sports 40Share
Beth Holland+FollowKD Thinks the NBA “Set Him Up”Kevin Durant said the NBA set him up by making Thunder vs Rockets the season opener and the first game on the new TV network: “I’ve been in this league a long time. They know my history with that franchise… I don’t know if it’s cool or not, but it is what it is. I just hope people are happy about the ring ceremony — not just watching for my reaction.” He added that while it’s been 10 years, his name still stirs things up in Oklahoma, and the NBA definitely knows it. #NBA #KevinDurant #Thunder #Rockets #BasketballDebate #Sports 7012Share
