Anything Goes Friday! Rockets Lose In OT vs Pelicans… Astros Add a New Arm?
After a strong start to the 2025-26 season, Houston's defensive rating is now in the bottom half of the NBA for December. Not coincidentally, the Rockets (16-8) currently have a losing record (3-4) for the month.Hosted by Ben DuBose and Dave Hardisty, our latest “ClutchFans Live” postgame show breaks down all the frustrations after the Rockets blew a 25-point lead in the second half versus the lowly Pelicans (6-22). Topics include the clear defensive regression; struggles to involve Kevin Durant in crunch-time possessions; and an odd downturn in the usage of Reed Sheppard.

Nate and Danny dig into a Western Conference mailbag for the Grizzlies, Wolves, Pelicans, Thunder, Suns, and Blazers, focusing on young bigs, long-term team-building, and how to survive in an OKC/Wemby/Jokic world.Memphis Grizzlies — 0:15What has Zach Edey's overall impact been so far, and why hasn't his strong play gotten more discussion?Given that most of Memphis' wins with Edey back came against sub-.500 teams, what's actually real and what projects beyond this season?Why are Ja Morant and Jaren Jackson Jr. “bad all of a sudden”—how much of it is attitude, effort, health, or role?Minnesota Timberwolves — 12:00If Tim Connelly decides to make a significant move, what sort of framework should he pursue—selling high on Julius Randle, moving Rudy Gobert to lower long-term risk while raising ceiling, or something else entirely?Who is a realistic trade target for Minnesota at point guard who can shoot, defend enough, and still let Anthony Edwards be the primary creator?What is Rob Dillingham's trade value right now—does he bring back even a late first?Why did the Wolves let Nickiel Alexander-Walker go—could they really not find a way to keep him or other options?How good is the offensive chemistry between Gobert and Randle actually—are they meaningfully helping each other?New Orleans Pelicans — 26:23Do Derik Queen's flaws—lack of true center size and questionable mobility—ultimately cap his long-term ceiling, or can his creation ability and defensive hands make those weaknesses not matter as much?If you're the Pelicans, what kind of offers would you need to seriously consider moving each of Jose Alvarado, Zion Williamson, Sadiq Bey, Herb Jones, and Trey Murphy III?Oklahoma City Thunder — 36:57Is OKC the deepest team of all time when fully healthy, given their bench of Kason Caruso, Isaiah Joe, Aaron Wiggins, AJ Mitchell, Kenrich Williams, J-Will, etc.?Which Western Conference teams, if any, would intentionally punt games against the Clippers late in the season to worsen the pick OKC owns from LA?What is AJ Mitchell doing defensively that makes him so effective?How many All-Stars should the Thunder have this season?If Shai Gilgeous-Alexander were to get hurt in the playoffs, how good would OKC's offense remain—could they still realistically win a series or two?Which Western Conference teams have the best chance of beating OKC in a playoff series, and how would you rank the Rockets, Spurs, and Nuggets as threats?Phoenix Suns — 47:45Given the Suns' surprising competence plus the fact they don't control their own firsts, has your view changed on how they should operate over the next 2–3 years?If you were running the Suns and received a strong offer for Devin Booker, would you trade him?With the Suns hovering around the 6-seed race, could they be sneaky buyers at the deadline—and if so, what position or role should they target given their current roster and Jalen Green's fit?Portland Trail Blazers — 53:05Is Portland's rebuild a failure—especially considering taking Scoot over Amen, choosing Klingan over Edey, trading out of the Cedric Coward spot for Hansen, and the current returns on Shaedon Sharpe?With OKC, Wembanyama's Spurs, and Jokic's Nuggets (plus Houston) as massive obstacles, how should the other Western teams approach big-picture strategy, timelines, and the pursuit of relevance?Have any of Sharpe, Toumani Camara, and Donovan Clingan actually improved from last year, or is it fair to say none of them have taken a real step forward?

We'll look at what's actually improved, what's still holding them back, and what that means for the rest of the season. Of course, we have to talk Zion Williamson's trade value—where it stands right now, how the league views him, and what it would realistically take for the Pelicans to move on.

Thank you to everyone who tuned in live for the latest edition of Corporate Knowledge: After Dark, this time after a 135-132 Spurs win in New Orleans. Just days after losing the third quarter 44-19 in Cleveland on its way to a seventh loss, San Antonio was once again dragged 45-23 in the 12 minutes after halftime. I wish I had an exact answer for what's going on, but I do not, dear reader/listener. It's not as if there's one recurring issue, or one player in particular performing poorly on the regular. The ailments are myriad, and I will be diving into them more. But in a crowded Western Conference, you do not apologize for any win, no matter how ugly. And against the Pelicans, you saw a teenager take the game into his own hands for the eventual game-sealing bucket, which gives everyone a good enough reason to celebrate. Show topics included: You guessed it: What the hell is happening in these third quarters? Harrison Barnes kept San Antonio afloat as everything slipped away; his baskets kept them in a game that could've gotten away even further. Dylan Harper, a 19-year-old, ultimately saves the day. What to make of the trio of Harper, De'Aaron Fox and Stephon Castle in their first game together this season. For those of you who would like to join live in the future and get in on the chat, you can do so by first downloading the Substack app and subscribing to the Corporate Knowledge newsletter. You'll get a notification when we hit the air, which will be shortly after as many road games as we can. If you do miss a show, fear not.

Hawks — 3:36Should the Hawks trade Trae Young plus two juicy Bucks/Pels picks for Giannis, and how would that look from both teams' perspectives?If the Hawks keep Trae, re-sign him reasonably, and just add this incoming Pelicans pick, can that path ever realistically lead to a championship?Do you buy Onyeka Okongwu's three-point shooting, and if you do, is he a top-15 center in the league?Celtics — 13:20If you're the Celtics, how should you play out the rest of the season—go all out because there's no super-team in the East, or pull back at some point to protect health?How useful will their increased turnover forcing and more egalitarian offense be once Jayson Tatum returns, and which rotation guys could actually be part of a high-level playoff rotation?Is Jaylen Brown genuinely improved compared to prior years, or is it mostly that the mid-range is falling more; and if it's shot luck, how long would he have to sustain this for it to be “real”?Nets — 22:36Is Michael Porter more valuable to the Nets as an on-court player to get them back into the playoff mix, or as a trade asset?Can you do as deep a dive as possible on Noah Clowney's game and development?Were pundits too quick to call the Nets' draft a disaster given how much their rookies are now playing?Hornets — 31:06What has happened to LaMelo Ball—he was an All-Star before, so is this decline just injuries and lack of progression?What are some potential trades for Miles Bridges, Ball, and Sexton?Do you sense a shift in the Hornets' organizational philosophy under the new regime?Bulls — 39:10John Hollinger has said the Suns turned down the Pelicans/Hawks pick deal; do you know if that exact deal (or better) was offered to other teams like the Bulls or Blazers, or is that just logical inference?Should the Bulls go all-in and trade for Anthony Davis, and what could they realistically get for Coby White if Artūras Karnišovas canvassed the league?The Bulls are trying to make up for their talent deficit by running on everything—does that strategy backfire (more injuries, better teams separating with more possessions), or is it actually their best path?Cavs — 50:20How concerned are you about the Cavs' bad start, and in particular about Darius Garland's play and health?What are your thoughts on Jaylon Tyson's development so far?Should Cleveland start trying to get out of the second apron, and what would it take to do that?Pistons — 58:06Good or bad, what has been the most surprising thing about the Eastern Conference so far this season?Besides Giannis and Lauri Markkanen, what other players would be a good fit for the Pistons and actually gettable?Would Sam Hauser be a good target for the Pistons given his price point and role, and how does he fit relative to what they already have (e.g. Duncan Robinson–type shooters)?

Today's word of the day is ‘best fit' as in Giannis Antetokounmpo as in Milwaukee as in the Bucks as in Doc Rivers as in trade. It looks like Giannis finally wants out. He didn't ask for a trade, but he asked for a trade. Should Milwaukee facilitate that? Will his latest calf injury keep him from being traded?
