Clippers pretty clearly will win the West if healthy Another embarrassing offseason for Houston. Just watching teams pass us by.
So, the Clippers are the new Warriors. (take low money on a 1 year or 1+1 to ring-chase, then cash in elsewhere.) Great. They're just going to let Shump walk aren't they, without even trying to fashion a deal for him that could be a small trade piece? And telling Capela and Gordon, "Just Kidding!" while knowing that at least one of those two doesn't handle being a trade piece very well. May even be worse this year, as I can see him thinking that his last two months of play entitled him to some kind of consideration for an extension. Instead of being gift-wrapped for Butler, or Hayward, or ugh, Westbrook. That said, Morey and Fertitta: don't make a stupid trade just to make one.
LOL In all honesty this was inevitable. Still, had the Rockets kept their larger MLE, they would have ended up with JaMychal Green or Marcus Morris. It is becoming apparent it is either a trade or nothing for the Rockets.
It sucks so bad the Clippers have all these perfect role players already and are just able to add two MVP caliber superstars.
come on now, why'd he sign with the rockets? Even for more $$? Let's take off your homer hat for a sec.... let's see, kawhi and PG, or harden and CP? Aint tough choice
