Rockets trade for Iman Shumpert

Oh boy youre really smart! Are you moreys assistant? Lets hear your reasoning behind this

 

But he got dog, dawg.

 

yeah, everyone needs to be as smart as you. b****ing about some imaginary move. according to you the obvious answer for the right move is some better trade.

please tell us what that better trade will be. Ill wait to hear some of this comedy

 

I love the trade wholeheartedly. Before some of you whine, take things into perspective. Only one 1st to rid of Knight, only one 2nd to rid of Chriss. Replace end-of-bench corpse with a guy who 1) (decent) 3 & (very good) D 2) plays quite well this year 3) brings super duper positive energy and cohesiveness on court and especially in the locker room 4) is an expiring 5) saves the owner $$$.

Overnight upgrade to lift us over the top does not come from trading Knight and Chriss, who are negative assets (not assets to say the least). There might be opportunity to flip Iman, but I'm happy just having him and keeping him.

 

Oh I dunno bro how about something that isnt blatantly a salary dump? Is that too smart for you?

 

exactly. a worthless answer. try again when you have something that makes any sort of sense

 

durrant 6 feet 9, He is 6 feet 5. Is it too short to guard Durrant ?

 

Ironic. This is why its a good idea to finish high school fellas

 

I like shumpert a lot more than I like Chriss and knight .

But the fact is that only got a little bit better and gave up a 1 and a 2 .

The main benefit of this trade is luxury tax savings .

If we do not use our MLE in the buyout market and/or to resign house then Tillman can suck a fat one .

If you wanna use this trade to position ourselves under the LT cap for next season , that's fine . But , to leave $ on the table in the middle of a harden season like this is incorrigible.

 

what's ironic is you still can't answer the question relevant to the topic, yet trying to sound smart.
whine and complain but still can't even come up with a plausible scenario. good stuff

 

waste a positive asset to break even on a negative asset

New math

 

It doesn't matter, Elmo. We aren't competing with the Warriors this year.

In general, however, having good perimeter defenders helps when playing teams with good perimeter scorers.

 

What in the effing hell are you talking about.

 

Fair enough. At this point I dont expect those of you justifying this trade to be literate

 

All I remember about this guy is him bricking all the wide open 3pters time & time again each time Lebron passed him the ball during the Cavs playoff runs.

 

he doesn't even know. he's just gonna try to save face by going completely off topic like he has been for the last couple of posts

 

Trade season is Ignore season.

 

Not sure about this trade gave up a lot 1st and 2nd plus to players .

 

Yes, that is exactly the rotation that needs to happen. Our best bet to making a deep playoff run is for MDA to have a 10 man rotation and keep Harden, Paul and Capela fresh. Gordon and Tucker's minutes should be limited as well. Keep Harden at around 35 minutes a night but no one else should get above 30 minutes a night except maybe Tucker.
