    Big body guards are worth their weight in gold. Could be the difference maker in a contender winning a chip. Trade him and Augustin for Tyus Jones.

    Once he goes, these close games will be double digit losses.

    You bring in Tyus Jones and you have a facilitator. Brooks gets more minutes. The future team gets a chance to develop. Don't forget that Christopher needs to eventually get his minutes too.

    And just like clockwork....

    This is ridiculous.

    Exactly why you can't wait until the deadline.

    I'd bet the Rockets are hoping to trade Gordon at some point for some high draft picks. But personally, I'd like to see them trade him for a pair or trio of veteran role players, including a wing and a forward who can play defense and fill some of the holes in this team.

    Giving a group of rookies all the minutes like what is happening now is very risky in terms of player development, IMO.
    The young guys need more experienced players around to help them learn the game and teach them what it's like to be a professional.

    You could or you could learn from him... but I don't know how much more you could learn.

    Would love him to work with Jalen on getting that elbow tucked in.
