    eh, if we could do Ego for Parsons + 4, I'd be ecstatic, especially if Luka is available.

    He’s healthy now, he said the hip injury was over exaggerated. He will be ready to get plenty of buckets by the regular season.

    Welcome to every Rockets Draft post Morey's takeover. Nothing new.

    Iso Joe doesn't need to be traded. Ryno no chance, in this manner.

    Morey is likely testing the market to see what he can get, probably to use in a deal. That's if there's anything to this.

    I feel like this might be a pick that would get paired with Anderson.

    He followed up with a tweet response to someone saying they (the Rockets) asked some of the lotto potential picks in NYC to workout, but they declined.

    It's possible it's just made up scuttle that they're looking to move into the mid first round in an effort to get workouts form some of these guys, as DM always likes to have his due diligence done for future potential trades.

    Morey trying to dump Gordon for a rookie.

    He better have assurances from CP3.

    DM didn't do his due diligence with Dekker's back injury status, and he ended up with back surgery as a rookie.Yeah, Bobby Portis was wrong to punch Nikola, but he was already showing flashes of success as a rookie well before this incident. Portis was the 22 nd pick and Dekker was the 11th pick.

    if we can somehow get an first rounder, that would elevate our trade potential later on
