The West is so stacked this year. Who do you think the worst team in the West will be? I think it’s the Pelicans, Blazers, or Rockets (alien.top)

I can’t see Houston being worse after adding a top 5 coach. And at the most negative a real pg who facilitates and is known for getting a lot of deflections/steals. Even if DB is terrible on offense your wing defense with Brooks Bari and Tari is still very very good. Worst case scenario this team wins 35 games best case is a play in game, team is young but the depth of talent is actually really good, they added two good defenders in the draft who both have NBA ready size. They also brought in other good veteran players in Jeff Green Reggie Bullock and Jock Landale so again even in a stacked west this team has little chance of being a less than 30 win team and will definitely surprise a lot of NBA “fans” who don’t see the tremendous value they added to the team in only one offseason. Rockets will easily be a top 20 defense and could sneak into the 15-12 range if young guys make a good leap under a coach who is knows for getting the most out of wing players especially.
