    Too bad there is such a thing as the salary cap


    (INB4 the multi team trade proposals where other teams give up the good players/contracts but Rockets end up with the good player!)

    If Harden signs off then he’s willingly to kill it off ball....

    Otherwise Simmons is kind of a terrible fit.... thinking more a Paul Millsap who shoot and pass.

    Works for both teams. I think you can play Simmons as a small ball center. (ie draymond green style). CP3 will be 35 and got 2 more years of 40+ mil per year after that. This will extend the Rockets as potentially contenders our a few more years.

    Broussard is a clown.

    Do we really want a guy who looks disinterested half of the time to a team that looked disinterested in game 6?

    Do not want at all. He’s great in transition, but god awful in the half court. His defense to this point is all tools and little results.

    Still young though. I guess things could change, just don’t think it’s likely.

    Simmons and a #1 for CP3?? Hell ya! If we can get anyone to take the contract off our hand, get anything in return to use towards another player in a trade (SIMMONS, CAPELLA AND #1 FOR ANTHONY DAVIS) HELL YA!

    Does Chris Broussard know what a salary cap is? Would this not have to be an extend and trade with Ben Simmons to even be a possibility?

    Wait, u actually think the Sixers would give up Simmons and a draft pick for CP0 and his contract? Do y’all not realize that he has 1 of the worst contracts in the entire league?

    Funny how most NBA “experts” have no idea what they are talking about.

    Philly would hang up (loudly) in DM's ear before he finished.

    To me can the Rockets improve Ben Simmons, maybe he can turn into Kawhi as a shooter.

    If Ben Simmons was on the Spurs they have Chip Engelland who changed Kawhi Leonard shooting form.
