    porter makes too much, oubre is too selfish. morris would be a solid pickup, although he doesnt seem to be quite as good as his brother in boston. he stays making clutch shots for them.

    Still trying to figure out whose burner account BigBum is.

    I've definitely seen this shtick before on CF: Mostly posts in semi-broken English for the simplest of sentences, then occasionally slips up and runs off a few sentences in a row with flawless spelling and grammar. Then back to semi-broken English for the next post.

    I'm pretty sure I know who it is, but coming out and saying it would be dead-horse flogging, so I'll refrain.

    Rockets seems to be interested in JR.

    Another difficult player. o_O

    I found the article to be a bit convoluted, topfive, and very interesting. On the one hand, Trevor was bothered by the special treatment superstars received, and on the other hand, Kawhi was bothered about the egalitarian way the Spurs treated their superstars, the lack of special treatment. Sort of damned if you do, damned if you don't. It's a peek through the window at what GM's and head coaches have to deal with behind the scenes to keep their superstars and the rest of the team happy. It might be even more difficult than I imagined, and I've imagined a lot over the years.

    i say Gordon Hayward struggling but feels a positional need. His value is lowest it will be. If we can do it for Ego, BK and Criss (maybe Melo) I say do it.

    In about 3 weeks, Ariza becomes a nice trade-able asset to playoff teams looking for a 3 & D wing on an expiring contract.

    The Suns will probably start shopping him very soon.

    Why would they buy him out when they can possibly get some value for him?
    They already made that mistake with Chandler this year.

    Mentioned in the Pistons game thread, but the Rockets could use a guy like Anthony Tolliver.

    His shot selection is already Rockets like, since 15-16, 76% of his FGA are 3PT shots (4.0 3PA / 40.0 3PT%), and another 13% inside 3 feet, then another 6% between 3-10. So far this season, 3.5 / 3.9 FGA are 3PTA. Hustles, defends, low turnover, efficient. Currently out of the Wolves rotation, not specifically happy about it, and makes $5.7 million.

    Why would Boston want all those guys?

    No way. He's broken and is on a max contract. This is worse than Chandler Parsons.
