Going into Friday night's play the Houston Rockets are currently in 3rd place in the highly competitive Western Conference. With a record of 11-5, the Rockets look like one of the biggest surprises of this young NBA season.

Now the rumor mill has been churning that the Rockets may trade for Jimmy Butler or Giannis, but in my opinion, I hate to see them break up the youth movement they have on the team. Plus, what they need is a veteran backup point guard.

Personally I do not believe Lebron James is really going to log of social media for good. When you look at the Los Angeles Lakers superstar Instagram and X feeds you will notice that they are full of product and sponsorship endorsements. From Louis Vuitton to Sony PlayStation James seems to have sponsorships for just about ever product category.

It's one thing for him to make a statement about negative topics on social media but it whole other thing for him to leave behind the millions and millions of sponsorship dollars.

I'm willing to bet the James will be back on social media within two weeks.

So I watched an entire Philadelphia 76ers game tonight. Outside of the NBA script writers penning more injuries than a team can be expected to overcome - the 76ers actually have a decent roster with a far amount of depth - the real issue is there head coach Nick Nurse, who was flat out out-coached tonight by the Memphis Grizzlies coaching staff.

The 76ers lost 111-117 in Memphis but as I watched the game it became clear that the problem the team is having falls at the fee of head coach Nick Nurse.

Don't fall for the Paul George is injured routine - if you watched tonight's game you know Nurse was out coached badly. Joel Embiid and Jared McCain had good games and so did Guerschon Yabusele, but for some reason Nurse kept the French basketball player of the court for most of the second half and yet he scored 17.
