    We strike out on everyone and give the MLE to someone who hasn't been good in two years, Paul and Harden will be at each other's throats by the All Star break.

    At this point i'm starting to get the feeling Chris is going to get traded (i guess to the Lakers), and if that happens for little to no incoming salary i think we'll also trade Capela or Gordon to go under the cap to sign Butler.

    I don’t think they can take back no salary in a Paul trade because of being over the cap already.

    We will pick up a bunch of unheard of guys from the G league, try and test them and then waive those suckers one by one

    Butler is not coming here to get less money. He opted out of his deal=not going to be a Rocket.

    Tad and Morey would do the usual big talk, then we pick some scrubs up like we did in recent years...

    People were saying yesterday that they could still take him if they move Kuzma or into their cap space before officially doing the Davis trade or expanding it.

    He would get more money in the long run by coming here, and he didn't opt out yet, he just plans to opt out, just like Chris Paul did before he got traded here.

    Kuzma is better long term for the franchise, even CP's friend Lebron is not that dumb....
    And short term Kuz is the better scorer than CP3 already.

    What about a Capela for Wiggins package? Is this possible?

    As today Kuzma is not better than CP3, and he'll likely never be as good as CP3 is today, but i do agree that for them makes sense to keep him since he's very cheap.

    Wolves would jump on that but makes no sense for us. Damn, you're really desperate if you want to swap Capela for Wiggins :D

    Wiggins would drive this fan base crazy. I want a wing but not Wiggins.

    Well if they send houston Dieng, Harden could turn him into the next capela, whilte getting some offensive help from wiggins. Hes not a bad player by no means, a rudy gay like player. Timberwolves have the #11 and i hear are eyeing a replacement for wiggins, because hes not the #2 option, or franchise player wolves were hoping he be.

    We need to hope Isaiah Hartenstein pans out :(

    He's like having a lottery pick this year-Murray and Thaddeus
