Talking Rockets with Houston Chronicle’s Jonathan Feigen
The Houston Chronicle beat writer joins Dave Hardisty on the podcast to discuss 25+ years of covering Rockets basketball, plus what’s in store for the current squad
When you think of writing and reporting of Houston Rockets basketball, you think of Jonathan Feigen.
The longtime beat reporter for the Houston Chronicle is the very best doing it today. He joined us to talk about his career covering the team and some of his favorite moments since he’s been on the beat (1998). We also touched on the topic of the NBA Draft lottery as Jonathan was in Chicago and was one of a select few witnesses in the drawing room as the Rockets came away with the 3rd pick.
Of course, we also talked about today’s Rockets, including:
The Rockets assistant coach vacancies
Do the Rockets need to create roster spots?
His experience witnessing the NBA lottery drawing live in Chicago
Paolo Banchero and his fit in Houston
Daishen Nix
Usman Garuba – how is he progressing?
Trade goals and opportunities this summer
The 2022 NBA Draft
