    JJ Reddick

    How great would we be with gordon, anderson and reddick??
    Especially with cp3 and blake only taking them so far every year.
    How far will we go this year? 2nd round exit?
    I think this would be such an underrated move.

    Blake Griffin ALL DAY.

    MDA will convince him with the Amare role. If you think about it, Blake would fit the Amare role PERFECT. LIKE PERFECT.

    I think capela is doing the tyson chandler role.

    Its much like the knicks pre melo but with more 3 point shooters and yeah harden himself. So tht elevates the team to much higher heights

    I think Gordon Hayward and Blake will be our main targets...whether we get them or not...wouldn't count on it. Will probably have to do with how well the Rockets play in comparison to the Jazz/Clippers

    If Clippers don't make it to WCF, I firmly believe CP3 will leave, and so will Blake and JJ

    Or better yet, Warriors implode this season because there is only one basketball, so Durant comes to Houston..

    JJ is ok, imo he's also a bit underrated as a defender but eh, i don't think he's what this team is missing, and he'll probably look to get paid so...

    Blake on the other hand...just perfect with Harden, Capela and MDA, he also worked on his outside shot this summer and it looks much smoother now...obviously what i'm going to post next is a pipe dream, but i would love to have this starting 5 in a couple of years:

    Capela
    Griffin
    George
    Harden
    Beverley (or someone else lol)

    Haywood which I think there's a good chance and Griffin which there's no chance. Hope he targets the likes of Kyle korver and patty mills

    Kyle Korver?

    As much as I like him and have wanted his three point shooting on the Rockets for years now, how old will he be in the 2017 offseason? Dude seems like he's been around for forever. I guess he would be good if we were looking to replace the Jason Terry role

    I think Korver is almost done at this point, he regressed last season and will be 36 next summer...

    I think a relastic target could be a person like danillo gallinari would go nice with eric gordon and Ryno but don't know about danillo defense

    What we need to do is target the redhead from Matt Barnes' old stomping grounds
