Although the Houston Rockets finished with the worst record in the league, GM Rafael Stone is convinced that good things are on the horizon in Houston, starting with July's NBA draft.
"We're going to get a good player in some way, shape or form," he said. "We're going to build something special here over time." Stone is right that the Rockets are likely to add a franchise-type talent with the No. 2 overall pick.
As for the rest of the roster, for the Rockets to get back to being a playoff team, it will take patience and a deliberate approach in how they retool the roster.
"We're trying to compete," Stone said. "We're not going to shortcut the process. We're trying to win a championship, ultimately."
