The 2023-24 season for the Houston Rockets was surprising, frustrating and, ultimately, a season of progress. With a new coach and new additions to the line up, some bumps in the road were to be expected, but to finish the year at .500, a 19-game improvement, coming off three of the worst years in franchise history was worth celebrating.
Now that the Rockets will have to watch the postseason like the other teams that didn't make the NBA postseason, it's a good time to look back and give some grades to this young, talented team.The Rockets managed to nearly reach the Play-In Tournament this season after a 19-win jump in the win column. It was impressive by all measures. But this is a franchise that clearly wants more. A perennial playoff team for so long, they want back into the postseason as soon as possible.
Right now, the Rockets are in an excellent position because they have good quality talent with very few free agents of consequence. They spent their cap money on Fred VanVleet and Dillon Brooks. Now, they turn their attention to getting healthy and making that next step in their development, which hopefully will be a run to the postseason.
