JaMychal Green is exactly the kind of player this team needs

    Defense....

    ...3 point shooting to space the floor for Harden and WEB....

    ..And we HAD him.

    But then Tilman decided to continue being cheap.

    This one will keep hurting.

    Watching Green with the same envy. But what do you mean we had him? My recollection is at the trade deadline last year, Memphis pulled out of the proposed trade, not Houston/Tilman.

    We beat GS with Green last year. But oh well. What's done is done. At least we beat he and the Clippers tonight. I'm just gonna enjoy the win and get back to my dislike for Tilman tomorrow.

    I don’t think we had him. Morey wanted to get him for a while now. If I remember correctly Codman said we had him then Miami or another team pull a fast one so we couldn’t do the 3 team trade or something like that. I just remember we could have had him and Temple last year.

    my #1 choice to add to this team in free agency for a long time. sucks it didn't happen and hes playing for less than mle in LA

    I'm not sure where the hou had him is coming from? i remember there was some kind of interest in trading for him before he landed in LA but not much more than that

    I believe your recollection is correct. I seem to remember that as well. But the Tilman narrative is strong around these parts (for good reason)

    The Rockets could definitely use a player like JaMychal Green, but, after that dirty elbow to Capela’s face after having the ball stolen, I prefer someone else in his mold.

    You don't know that we "had him". Or maybe you know something that we don't. We wanted him, but Memphis had a say in all this. Come on man.

    Tilman isn't my favorite person in the world right now. But let's not just make stuff up.

    Nook has mentioned many times that we all but had him and Temple but Tilman backed out at last minute not wanting to take on salary to put us above the taxline

    Thanks.

    I have seen @Nook mention this as well and my claim is based on what I have read.

    If I am wrong, he is welcome to correct me.

    Hasn't he been struggling all year? I watched the Clippers broadcast and they talked quite a bit about his struggles this year.

    I don't really want dirty players on my team. No matter how good they are. The NBA shouldn't stand for that s***.
