Houston Rockets Receive: G Trae Young
As a matter of fact, the Rockets seem to believe that Porter Jr. is a point guard. They do, don’t they? It is hard to say for sure.
As a matter of fact, at the moment, it is hard to make any predictions about the Rockets’ intentions. Isn’t it true that this team has been tanking as hard as anyone else in the NBA for the last few years?
Could Porter Jr.’s running point be nothing more than a failed experiment that is designed to fail? Is it really the case that the organization believes he is the future of the position he holds? Is there a truth somewhere in the middle, or does it lie somewhere in between?
That seems to be the most likely scenario. If Porter Jr. were to lead the Rockets into the playoffs as their floor general, it is likely that they would stop tanking as a result.
