Rockets PREDICTIONS: Can Kevin Durant & Alperen Sengun LEAD Houston To Postseason SUCCESS?
Houston Rockets look to ignite a second-half surge, but will their easier schedule translate to a top-three Western Conference seed and a deep playoff run? Record predictions, longest win streak calls, and playoff seeding debates set the stage as Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by weekly cohosts Madison Moore (@MadManLeaks), Brandon Scott (@brandonkscott) and Ben DuBose (@BenDuBose) to analyze Alperen Şengün’s impact and whether Kevin Durant can lead a young squad to postseason success.
The roundtable dissects Western Conference power rankings, with hot takes on Thunder, Spurs, Nuggets, Timberwolves, Lakers, Suns, and Warriors playoff positioning. The hosts question if the Rockets’ young core—including Amen Thompson and Reed Sheppard—can build winning habits and avoid being exposed under playoff pressure. Trade deadline decisions, injury setbacks for Fred VanVleet and Steven Adams, and what defines a “successful postseason” for Houston are front and center. Will the Rockets finally break through, or does a bigger overhaul loom?

Rockets EXPECTATIONS: Who Has The MOST To LOSE This Season? Kevin Durant, Alperen Sengun & MORE
Houston Rockets face a pivotal post-All-Star break as questions loom over Kevin Durant and Alperen Şengün’s ability to carry the team to the playoffs. Can head coach Ime Udoka spark a turnaround for a roster hit by injuries and inconsistency? Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) is joined by weekly cohosts Madison Moore (@MadManLeaks), Brandon Scott (@brandonkscott) and Ben DuBose (@BenDuBose) to dissect the major challenges ahead, from the pressing point guard dilemma and Reed Sheppard’s evolving role to execution issues plaguing Houston’s half-court offense.
Debate heats up on who has the most riding on the rest of the Houston Rockets’ season—will Durant push for a championship run, or is Şengün’s spot as a franchise cornerstone at stake? The crew weighs buyout-market options versus rewarding J.D. Davison with the final roster spot. With playoff hopes on the line and Udoka’s coaching future drawing scrutiny, every decision could reshape Houston’s path. Will the Rockets rise, or is a shakeup on the horizon?

Rockets UNRAVEL Vs Clippers As Kevin Durant STRUGGLES With Turnovers & Kawhi Hits GAME WINNER
Houston Rockets unravel in the fourth quarter as Kawhi Leonard and turnovers dash hopes before the All-Star break. Can Ime Udoka find the right late-game formula, or will the Rockets' Achilles heel continue to haunt their playoff push? 
Host Jackson Gatlin (@JTGatlin) breaks down the Houston Rockets' narrow 105-102 loss to the LA Clippers, spotlighting the Rockets' late-game struggles, Kevin Durant's costly turnovers, and the defense’s puzzling shift away from double-teaming Kawhi Leonard. Key analysis covers Reed Shepard's scoring burst off the bench, Clint Capela’s rim protection, and questions surrounding Udoka’s end-of-game decisions. With Fred VanVleet sidelined and point guard play under scrutiny, the pressure is mounting. 
Can the Rockets sharpen their execution and get KD the ball in clutch situations—or are more close losses looming?
