    They probably want to move Rubio but will end up giving up Dieng with him or Shabazz.

    They can't move Dieg until next season. He just signed a huge extension

    He's done in the league. I'd take Shabazz out of all of them though. Dude can put up points and D up with the best of them

    Payne is ass, Shabazz is decent i'd say, but i don't think he would help that much any team if not as an ok scorer from the bench...i don't know what to say about Dieng, he looked an interesting young player in his rookie season but as today i read a lot of Wolves fans mad at Thibs cause he resigned him with that contract, they say Dieng is just too soft, discontinuous and that Thibs should've traded him or just wait next summer to see if they could've paid him less money.

    I also think that Rubio is gone, i don't think he fits there at all, especially if they're going to keep both Wiggins and LaVine (which i'm not even sure is the right thing to do but well, we'll see that), i just don't see a place for Rubio there tbh, to me it's more a matter of "when/where" he's going to be traded. Jones is a keeper for them imo.

    Do they want Corey Brewer back? Please? We'll take whatever they give for him, whatever.

    Can they just have him? He's a vet and the coach will love him, that's a guarantee. The coaches always love him.

    If Houston makes a trade with them, Brewer must be somewhere in that trade.

    Call me crazy, but I wouldn't use 'Rubio' and 'young star' in the same sentence.

    OK, Crazy.

    I agree with the Rubio comment, but couldn't pass up a free pass on calling you crazy.

    I'm sure they'd move Rubio and Pek.

    Don't want.

    The media tends to overblow the meaning of a "star"

    "Come meet Rockets LEGEND Tom Henderson VS. the Raptors!"

    who the **** is Tom Henderson?

    Can someone who follows the
    Good catch, I didn't realize that.

    For someone who watches or follows the team, can someone please explain their guard rotation? It's Kris Dunn, Tyrus Jones, LaVine, and Rubio? That seems like too many young guards.

    Hasn't played well at all this year.
