    Shut up and listen.

    This is just another accident again this year. Tilman is willing to pay the luxury tax. Morey has full financial authority. Tilman is only concerned about the repeater tax.

    The Rockets almost won with midget ball in 2017-2018. A hamstring away.

    Lengthy defenders matter. It also matters that we can spread the floor. This will at least balance our line up.

    My post went up before we heard about the 2nd round pick and Bell. Considering Morey’s track record in the 1st round....this isn’t as bad.

    wow. I can't believe it happened.

    I like getting Covington, but gave up too much when you add future 1st and Clint.

    At least Tilman saved Luxury Tax by trading, Green, Nene, 1st round salary, and Clint.

    Did we only get Covington or anything else????

    Morey now shifts his attention to other trade deals and the buyout market. [​IMG]

    Didn’t Jordan Bell hit threes on us when he was in GS?

    I gotta bow out now homies. I can’t continue to support a team when the owner isn’t all in to win. Same goes for the Texans. Our $$ and time/energy deserve that.

    I hope not. We got robbed if it's only Covington for Clint and a 1st. I know we all hate like Clint gets punked by GSW and Kuzma, but GSW is done.

    Clint was actually good against most team, except Warriors in playoff and now you don't have to worry about Warriors.

    Let's hope there's more players announced later or it's really a Luxury tax saving.

    We aren't really going to play 5 guys 6'6 and under for entire season???????????????????????

    Kevon Loony coming in trade?
