    there was always respect w/ PJ though and i think they were actually friends off the court. but w/ crowder it's immediate that they talk trash and get in each other's faces going back to BOS and DAL as well

    im not sure about that relationship before his houston days. crowder is one of those hard nosed players much like pb. he isn't going back down from anyone. i too would love for houston to get another glue guy in him

    Crowder might be a target at the Feb deadline. He is a Grizzly now.

    I got into it with players from the opposing team every game...

    Until it came time for AAU ball.

    It's different when the annoying guy is on your team.

    Why would the Rockets do a trade like that?

    luckily there is imo zero chance of crowder and harden becoming teammates because crowder is a horrific shooter

    Any thoughts on Rockets moves eve of draft night? I know, so many ways the Rockets can turn.

    Okay, a few people brought this up. Harden wasn't even a star at the time. He wasn't even prime Harden, so basically Morey hasn't gotten a single star in his prime in free agency or trade, but he's considered one of the greatest GMs in this era. Hmmm...

    I don't know, but I wouldn't be surprised if Clint and Clark are offered for the rights to another rookie center ( a better Clint) down the line or more likely for a true SF. This would create some cap room too.

    Edit: Well Morey didn't get a player out of the draft. It's hard to get a good player. The picks are treated like gold.

    The 5.7 M MLE is all that the Rockets have.

    Yeah, GMs looooooooooooooooooooooooove those draft picks. Getting dudes on cheaper contracts for 3 or 4 years. You pretty much need at least some draft pick to begin with to even barter your way up, not, "I'll give you future picks."

    "Uh.........." Click.

    Tilman is not going to double pay him at 100 million dollars due to tax.
