At first, it had been Harden. He missed the primary two days of coaching camp and posted pictures to social media of varied parties he was attending, while the remainder of the Rockets were reporting to training camp and fielding questions from the media about the absence of the team’s star player. Harden eventually showed up in Houston on Dec. 8. It’s obvious that trust is what’s missing immediately between Harden and therefore the Rockets organization. It’s an equivalent between Harden and his teammates, many of which he hasn’t even played with yet. Silas wants to be the catalyst in bridging the gap. But if he can’t, the question becomes when will the Rockets be ultimately forced to deal Harden?
The Lakers have a replacement supporting cast and in these situations there’s usually a involve patience. That’s understandable in most cases. The difference here is LeBron’s passing will accelerate that process with new teammates and Davis is ready to require the lead role on most nights. Because their offseason was so short, expect some nights off for Davis and LeBron. Still, the Lakers should return to the role of title favorite because the standard of their depth is superior than a year ago.
HoustonRockets: W – 3, L – 5
