    Tilman would pay At least 100 million luxury tax each year if everyone gets market value.
    Paul + harden + Hayward + horford = 140 million.

    Rockets and Celtics make good trade partners. Both teams have talent and disappointing playoffs. Darrel also has froends ib Bostonia.

    If Irving leaves,

    Trade can only make one team better, and another team worse.

    I would be into Horford/Brown for Capella/Gordon/a first (or two) or alternatively if we wanna keep our picks

    Horford/Hayward for Capella/CP3.

    1st scenario:
    CP3, Harden, Brown, Tucker, Horford

    2nd scenario:
    Harden, Gordon, Hayward, Tucker, Horford

    Both look great to me.

    Paying Horford this year would probably lead to a long discounted contract next year.
    I would obviously LOVE brown on this team, but i know people would rather have our picks and i think we'd need to give those up for any chance to take Jaylen from Boston.

    1st is good
    2nd, Celtics take additional 100 million dollars. Tax teams can’t afford Paul contract.

    I honesty wouldn’t mind if Houston traded for Horford. He can shoot the 3, defend, rebound, and block shots... not to mention he’s on an expiring contract.
    I would also sign DJ to start at our 5 and possibly move PJ to the 3. I would than offer Danny Green our full MLE and trade CP for Butler & Redick who both would have to opt in for the trade to work.
    I know this is far fetched but it’s very possible. PHI gets a much needed PG and not loose Butler or Redick for nothing. This would also allow PHI to max out Harris if they so choose to.
    Meanwhile, Houston would be retooled and ready for the start of the 2019-2020 season w/

    Harden/Gordon
    Gordon/Redick
    Butler/Green
    Horford/PJ
    DJ/Horford

    This lineup would be sick but obviously a very long shot.

    But.. better? Hayward and Harden are just entering their 30s.

    If it involves Jaylen Brown.. he's younger than Capella. So.. i guess the median would go down from running this current team back.
    Plus like i said. If you get Horford on a cheap deal coming out of this year.. thats a win for me.

    Regardless of the feasibility, did anyone else get the feels after reading that a non-scrub wants to play in Houston?
