    I watched the game cos had nothing better to watch today. The guy did good. Did not seem like a rookie. Shooting was one thing but he did all the other stuff well, the things that dont show on the typical boxscore.

    Honestly, at some point we have to realize that we can't always play the guys we have and we gotta choose. No harm done passing a player off to a team not likely to challenge us in the playoffs for something else in the future.

    This belongs to Fire Morey thread. And Fire Morey threads are only for j*zz, Mavwrecks and Flakers fans. Anyone supporting Fire Morey should donate blood, check if it is red in color?

    6' 7", 225 lbs - he would be playing center for the Rockets.

    Just kidding, he wouldn't be playing at all. Too young. :D

    2 picks after Isaiah Hartenstein, Houston just traded the pick away. Thanks Morey.

    June 22, 2017: Houston Rockets to Memphis Grizzlies
    • Memphis acquired Houston's second-round pick (No. 45)
    • Houston acquired a future second-round selection from Memphis
    https://www.nba.com/grizzlies/news/grizz-acquire-rabb-and-brooks-draft-rights-170622

    Memphis Grizzlies General Manager Chris Wallace announced tonight that the Grizzlies acquired the draft rights to Oregon guard/forward Dillon Brooks (No. 45 overall) from the Houston Rockets for a future second round draft pick.

    We ultimately traded him for another pick that became Melton.

    Threads like this just remind me that we traded a 1st Rd Pick, a 2nd Rd pick, and a good young player in Melton to make our tradeable salary vanish. Every thread just circles me back to our dog s**t owner.

    It wasn't untradeable, even the corpse of Anderson would have been an extremely valuable trade chip had we just held onto it. At the time I liked the trade because I thought we were increasing flexibility for trades when in hindsight all we were really doing was breaking it into smaller parts so it could go away quicker.

    Literally all we did was give up assets to get rid of another asset because it cost money.
