Rockets Make NO MOVE At NBA Trade Deadline | Rafael Stone CONFIDENT In Kevin Durant & Current Roster

Rockets Make NO MOVE At NBA Trade Deadline | Rafael Stone CONFIDENT In Kevin Durant & Current RosterHouston Rockets stand pat at the NBA trade deadline—has General Manager Rafael Stone already punted on the season? Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) dissects Stone’s candid “just not our year” comments and questions the team’s complacency amid persistent injuries to Fred VanVleet and Steven Adams. With the Rockets’ supposed top 5 offense and defense slipping to mid-tier rankings since December, fans have to wonder: is offensive rebounding enough to mask glaring half-court issues and a lack of scoring punch?Key topics include Ime Udoka’s push for more pace and movement, the sustainability of Houston’s rebounding-heavy identity without Adams, and the minimal hope offered by the buyout market. Gatlin weighs the merits of J.D. Davison’s impact versus potential buyout signings and spotlights lineup questions around Amen Thompson, Reed Shepard, and Alperen Şengün. Can the Rockets salvage playoff momentum, or is it time to prioritize player development and look towards next season?#Rockets #NBA #KevinDurant📺 Subscribe On YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/LockedOnRockets📲 Twitter: https://twitter.com/JTGatlin & https://twitter.com/LockedOnRockets📲 Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/jtgatlin.bsky.social🎧 Follow/Subscribe/Listen:Locked On Rockets Anywhere: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnRocketsLocked On NBA Anywhere: https://linktr.ee/LockedOnNBAFor your next listen, check out the Locked On NBA podcast, where the season never ends providing national expertise with a local perspective.
