High percentage landing Paul Milsap to the Rockets according to ESPN

Nothing to see here.

 

The current Rockets are barely a top 5 team in the NBA. They're not beating the Warriors.

 

Phx backed out bevahad he wants the max. Minnesota out now too because money to high.

Denver probably prepared to offer him a near max.

 

No one here understands anything. We trade for Paul and suddenly they feel Morey has magical powers. There is nothing we can do about the lack of assets to send out.

 

Don't the Suns have a lot of cap space? If the asking price is too high then perhaps he's looking for something close to his max. A team would be foolish to give it to him.

 

Minny out of the running now also.

 

We need to get on in Milsap he is down to Denver now

 

Maybe he's looking for close to his max? That's only been said for two straight years lol

 

Why aren't the Rockets pursuing Milsap? Is it because of Ryno's contact?

 

Kings called unlikely

 

any team giving him a max is stupid...ATL said no, PHX said no, and we'll see if Denver says no

If Denver says no then what's he gonna do? Go to Sacramento?

 

We can't afford him at the dollars he wants, and no, even without ryno in the team we wouldn't likely have the cap space for what he is apparently wanting

 

Best case scenario that I can think of is that morey has a crap deal on the table for ATL. Ryno and maybe Cap.

Atl is waiting for a better S&T partner but if milsap is talking to Den and PHX then he has to threaten walking to a team that can sign in outright and leave atl wo anything.

If there was a strong connect with houston and mutual interest then ATL might see a move to a cap space team as just a bluff.

I can't imagine morey not being very interested in adding milsap unless he's for sure looking for the absolute max. If that's the case i think he's just waiting for the hawks to sweat long enough to take his deal.

 

Lol because he's good. Not sure if you're being srs

 

sorry I meant why aren't they pursuing him

 

We have Anderson, best shooting big in the league (on the road and in regular season), we're fine.

Spoiler: Yep

 

Sap not taking a paycut to sign here, ibaka might?

 

Ibaka is heading back to Toronto, Barring a Pat Reilly pitch that sways him is last I heard.

 

I really don't get why you would choose a team that is bad just for money, where's the fun??
