    Thank you. I pride myself in the obscure.

    Did you know that Peter Parker is actually Spiderman?
    Did you know what Steve Rogers is actually Captain America?
    Did you know what Mario Elie played for the Spurs, Warriors, and Rockets?
    Can you name the other NBA player that played for the Spurs, Warriors and Rockets? HINT: His name was MR MEAN

    Did you know Jim Petersen has a mullet and played for the Warriors and the Rockets?

    No need to speculate. We're trading that underachiever Capela for Winslow, Oubre and Thon Maker. It's being discussed.

    The cool thing about it is that although they play on 4 teams, it's only a 2-team trade! Yes, Morey is that good.

    More obscure Rockets and Warriors facts:

    The entire 1980's Warriors team played for the Rockets:

    Sleepy Floyd, Purvis Short, Terry Teagler, JB Carroll, Mr Mean, Lester Connor

    Now we know why we hate the Warriors so much. This goes back to the 80's when the Warriors sucked and unloaded their garbage like Floyd, Short, Just Barry Care, Lester the Molester Connor etc.

    I think they traded the entire 1980's team to the Rockets for Jim Peterson and Ralph Sampson

    BTW this isn't for Isaiah Caanon that by itself at least would officially tell me we are going after Zion Williams.

    I know it would be really nice to have a traditional 3 but I feel like Beal and Morris for Knight and Gordon with picks would be amazing.

    Morey hasn't a good track record since the end of last season. I'm not getting my hopes up. Might be some other washed-up big name (JR Smith??)

    I can't do a Morris again, still having nightmares passing on Leonard. Beal would be amazing here, a rich man's Gordon.

    Everyone hating on the idea of JR smith but if you could swap knight for JR straight up that's a win.

    Knight is injured and not playing and you are getting someone who can play back.

    Both have very Similar contracts in length and dollars EXCEPT JR is only guaranteed for 3m next year.

    So, while yeah knucklehead and that's bad and hes typically just wtf. He does have playoff and championship experience. He does provide flexibility and would provide added depth
