    Yeah rumor is if he gets to a buyout that he wants to play for the Warriors. Rockets would have to trade for him if they want him.

    Yikes. That might be the nail in the coffin for the season guys. Lengthy time, rockets were not good without him either last year. Gonna be tough to overcome.

    Granted this was last year but I read that the Magic were looking to move on from Vucevic. I wonder if that’s still the case. If it is I would offer them Gordon and filler for Vucevic and Simmons/Ross right away.

    Harden definitely struggles more without Capela since you don't have that vertical spacing there when he isn't in there. Feels like season took a nosedive. Harden can only do so much.

    Why Knight and Chriss stay here so long?

    Trade!

    Yeah we seriously need to hire that Phoenix Suns staff from the years D’Antoni was the coach. Other than Stat, that team was super healthy and even known for resurrecting some careers. Grant Hill had some productive years in his time there...
