    Cavs had a great day. They literally got rid of trash & Kept the Brooklyn Pick.

    I agree...CP3 seems very happy and humbled to be a Houston Rocket. Morey and Harden aren't letting him go. Especially if we go deep into the post-season. Stay positive folks!! What a time to be a Rox fan.

    KCP and Ariza shoot the 3 at about 35% this year. o_O

    Ariza's contract is an expiring. Not sure what he is worth but I don't see why the Rockets would not resign him for a reasonable price tag. Ariza doesn't need to start.

    Kobe coming out of retirement is funny, ridiculous, and unlikely. It would also be really entertaining. Granted Kobe would have to play with a THIRD number for the Lakers. Plus Bryant and Wade have lost a step or four but they would be guarding the worse perimeter player. I bet LeBron and Kobe would want to play together for at least 1 year. And Bryant doesn't have to start.

    But Wade is following LBJ wherever.

    IT went from “Bring out the Brinks truck” to “Put as much as you can in this pillow case”.

    Correction, Ariza is shooting 38% from 3 this year.

    Plus the dynamic that Ariza has with our other Rockets (potential Rockets :D) is more important than taking a flyer on KCP. I like the kid but it'll take a few more years before he becomes that 3&D wing with a veteran presence on a playoff.

    Thank God, Kobe will NOT be coming out of retirement!

    Clarkson plays like Lou Williams. I think he’s better all around. He just needs minutes.

    Nance is just the hustle / above the rim guy they needed.

    You're right. I was looking at Ariza's 3Pt% as a Rocket.
    Well...why not have both?
    Agreed. I don't like Kobe but he is a Hall of Fame player. He had a year to rest his body and may get motivated to tie Jordan in championships if the right team is set up.

    whats bullshit about it. that big injury has caused him to suck plain and simple. hes sat out for how many months now? this injury he tried to hide was obviously more severe than what he tried make it out to be.

    idc if he avg 1ppg for the rest of the season, you dont trade him for that sht. keep him and let him walk at the very least if all u can get is clarkson and nance. giving up frye, who unlike ryan, a good stretch 4 with ACTUAL SIZE, and the nets pick?

    this is a terrible panic trade from cleveland.

    looks like cleveland made out fine. people tried to make it seem like KL was the scapegoat in cleveland. Looks like it was indeed big mouth lockeroom cancer IT.

    and where did the nets pick come from. that wasn't involved in the deal. might want to get your facts straight first before having a meltdown
