1. There are a ton of options with regards to $ and length, I think there's an argument that both sides might prefer a shorter deal; a 3-year term...
I think your position is pretty clear on Green, and I think it's perfectly valid to prefer letting him go to RFA rather than offer him an...
In 2013 - 2014, Steph's 4 year, $44M extension was 72% of a rookie max extension, roughly 18% of the cap at the time. If Steph was signing an...
For everyone's reference, Devin Vassell's contract that Bobby Marks refers to, scaled to the 2025 NBA cap (assumed $155.1M). It includes some...
I do not know much about Witus, and whether he even wants the top GM job for a team. Talent evaluation is an unbelievably important aspect of...
I think that Stone has gotten a lot better since he took over in 2020. In hindsight, the Oladipo extension would have been a terrible move at...
Udoka might be a proponent of #BetOnYourself and had confidence in being able to turn around Houston's roster, but you should take off the Rocket...
I'd rather the Rockets do all the "obvious" moves that end up being correct, rather than trying to go off-the-board and be seen as brilliant. I...

Don't make me tap the sign please...
If Sengun's injury is season ending, he'll already be eligible for MIP, by virtue of playing 62 games and at least 85% of his teams game prior to...
For whatever hold KPJ had on the Rockets front office and ownership, it certainly seemed like he won over Coach Udoka as well during the summer....
Recent history for high draft picks, Lauri Markkanen might be a decent example of a guy who was looking like a monster in his second year, then...
Thank you for the information. It seems so at odds that Coach Udoka had enough power when first being hired to nix the Harden return, and less...
I love Steven Adams the player throughout his career and consider him the ideal backup to complement Sengun, but isn't his knee completely cooked?...
Robert Horry for Sean Elliott is the classic example of this. On paper, it's a slam dunk; you're acquiring a 24-year old All-Star for a perceived...
Stone gets credit for the John Wall move, but as a black mark against his record. To recap, both John Wall and Russell Westbrook had the exact...
