Rockets rookie Bruce Thornton in his Summer League debut: 27 points 7-18 FG 3-8 3P 7-7 FT 3 assists 3 rebounds 3 steals +20 in 35 minutes Strong showing. He's going to deal with a lot adjusting to the size/length/speed of the league, but his physical strength is an immediate fit. Used his football build to ward defenders off. Looked very comfortable making drive-and-kicks and leading at the point.

Rockets GM Rafael Stone NBA Summer League interview: - Really likes rookie Bruce Thornton - the unique build, physicality, shotmaking and ability to take care of the ball. Test will be if he can translate that to the next level. - Very excited about Marcus Smart's versatility. "Feels like a Rocket so I'm glad we could finally make it happen." He says he's happy with him defending any position, including at center. - Loves the defensive switchability options the Rockets now have with Smart, Jabari, Tari and Amen. - Wants to take the minutes load off of Kevin Durant this season. - Says Reed Sheppard has "put on a ton of good weight, a bunch of muscle."

Ime Udoka said the Rockets were watching the end of the Nuggets-Spurs game in the locker room. On playing the shorthanded LA Lakers in the first round: "For us, obviously it's fresh that we lost two games to them recently and then kind of flipped the switch since then. Had a really good game against them on Christmas and obviously (we) know they're injured, but quality players across the board... It's still the NBA, they have some really great players there. We'll have our hands full."

Steve Kerr would not talk specifically about the officiating in this series, but did address it indirectly. "Teams basically just say to their guys, 'Just foul every time, they can't call it every time.' The playoffs become to me much more an art for the officials than a science." Asked about how the Rockets defend Steph Curry: "You don't think you're just going to bait me into ... What are you, James Harden trying to draw a foul right now?"

Ime Udoka absolutely tears into the officiating after the Rockets lost in Sacramento tonight. "Take your sensitivity and emotions out of it and call the game the right way. It's obvious right in front of you. John Goble, whoever it was, sees it and doesn't call it, I'm going to let him know about it."

John Wall says he told Jalen Green and Kevin Porter Jr: "This sh*t y'all getting away with here (with the #Rockets), if you go to any other teams, you would be out of the ****ing league. You wouldn't play. I'm trying to explain it to them because they think it's sweet."

Dorian Finney-Smith would/will be a significant addition to the Rockets. Strong, versatile defender that hit over 41% 3P last year. Attacks closeouts. Lakers defense turned around when they got him and he had the best NetRtg (+11.1) on the team. Boosts Houston, hurts LA. #win

Fred VanVleet on potential free agency this summer: "This is where I want to be. It's definitely a family situation. I got a lot of love for our coaching staff, Rafael [Stone], the Fertitta family. What we set out to do when I had my free agent meeting 2 years ago and we're on that track. It was never a short-term vision. It was a long-term goal. We're on track. We're on schedule."

Nuggets coach David Adelman told Ben DuBose that he believes the 2008-09 Rockets, coached by his father Rick Adelman, was a championship team. "I really firmly believe the team that lost to the Lakers in 7 in the second round, without Yao and without Tracy, was a championship team. I really believe that. I think a lot of people think my dad's best opportunity to win it was in Sacramento or in Portland, and I think deep down he thinks it was that year [with Houston]."
