    Has Carroll officially signed yet? Or is he not able to play in this Warriors game.

    So your idea to get the Rockets over the top is to cut two guys and bring in Isaiah Thomas and Tristan Thompson?

    Congrats! That qualifies you to be the Knicks' GM, so be sure to send in a resume.

    If you guys think Thabo is a bad shooter, wait until you see Harkless. Dude can't throw it in the ocean.

    Career .612 from the free throw line for godsakes.

    Thabo >>>

    I don't want Harkless as much as a lot of these other people seem to. More than anything he's just youth added to the roster at a good age. And nothing more than depth. In a buyout, sure why not. add him for free. other than that meh nothing special

    He is a lot closer to James Ennis than the Trevor Ariza that people are hoping for, imo. Would be nice depth for sure.

    They have better player development success than Rockets.

    Agree... sure would be nice to get a Porzingas-type player (7' PF that can shoot from the outside) on the dirt cheap.

    Seriously? Zhou was what, 2-19 on 3pt over his career? I'd rather have a shooter that can also pass the ball and has a decent roll to the basket. Bender was a early 1st round pick... I'd gamble that he can do something.
