    Harden is a given...u have to be stupid as hell to think he could get traded right now

    Tuck is the heart and soul of the team

    everybody else can go...CP0 is the next safest in a trade after Harden and Tuck mainly because his contract is an albatross

    - Chris Paul and Capela traded for little to no incoming salary
    - Gordon traded for Butler
    - sign Kawhi and DeAndre for cheap
    - resign Rivers and House

    DeAndre/Hartenstein
    PJ/Clark
    House/Kawhi
    Butler/Green
    Harden/Rivers

    :D

    Got a feeling Tillman has had enough of the analytics talk and wants results. Morey sweating hard this summer

    Maybe I should start a Youtube channel and repeat this statement in another way. I also have insider knowledge that the Rockets own a 767.

    We need players who don't expect harden to move

    If Morey can get value for Paul, considering how toxic his contract is, it will almost make up for signing Ryan Anderson.

    While it is so great to know what Brian T. Smith thinks.
    I would rather know what Daryl Morey thinks.

    Yeah, someone who expects Harden to stay still.

    Like Kim in that "leaked" sex tape, so long ago now....she just lay there. You're yelling, "DO something!" But noooooo.....

    Paul is safe as well. Nobody is paying max dollars for a 34 year old PG with shot hamstrings who can't even average a 2:1 assist to turnover ratio when he's not even running the offense lol

    I think so too ,but Rockets are in so much trouble cap wise and bad contracts that i believe if someone offered morey a great deal for tuck he would take it .It is wat it is.

    Don't believe anything that comes from Rockets cheap organization, All loud talk and no action...last offseason ruined the 65 winning team, talked big before trade deadlne but what they did was basically salary dump to save tax and gave away draft picks...another round of big talk before waiver player acquiring deadline and another big dud....
    All this big pretension of trade activity could well be to show that they are trying to make trade to make the supporters feel good for the moment after many blamed the shameful tax saving at the cost of the team.
