    it won't happen if it is Gordon/nene/3 Firsts for Butler because it needs 2 Firsts to dump Knight contract.

    For sure. Don’t see Deandre signing here to back up Capela. We’re also jumping the gun here. I don’t think Dallas has even brought up the idea of buying him out yet.

    We could always trade for him. It would cost us picks, but Knight + Nene pretty much gets it done, might need one more contract like MCW to make the numbers work.

    DeAndre Jordan isn't going to make or break the Rockets season.

    The Rockets need a really good swing 3/4 to become available and to fill some depth holes at the 1 and 4.

    If we get another 3-4, I think Clark will provide that depth.

    He may, but ideally would like someone better. Clark is only shooting 32% from the field. That isn't going to cut it for a team competing for a championship.

    We'll see, only time will tell. I think that shot is the only thing stopping him right now. And all the evidence points to him being a net positive on the floor, so we'll see whats up as the season goes along.

    2 would be a no brainer for Dallas, not so much for us. It really depends where we are and where they are when the time comes to make that decision. If we start rolling and and somehow grab a solid 3/4 from the buyout market, then I wouldn’t be surprised if Morey gets aggressive with Knights contract and picks. But if things keep going the way they are, where we’re up and down, then I don’t anticipate us willing to part with picks.

    Rockets like to play small so i don’t see us getting Jordan if he gets bought out imo

    If it's not Ariza, I wouldnt expect anything from the buy out market tbh. And honestly, I dont get why Morey thinks its so important but ehh, he knows what hes doing.
