    The Rockets had (2016/17)
    Player.......................DRtg................player(?)........................DRtg
    Ryno..........................113.................Millsap...........................104
    Dekker.......................110.................Amir Johnson.................107

    Lou Williams..............112.................Iggy (36% 3P%).............105
    Gordon......................113.................Redick............................112
    ............................................................CJ Miles.........................111 (but 104 in both 2015/16 & 2014/15)

    Klay Thompson and Livingston were both DRtg 108............Dunleavy was DRtg 109

    The idea is to spread the floor for both CP3 & Harden with shooters while improving the D somewhat.

    Warriors falter along the way. Lose pieces. Curry is finally getting paid. Then Durant. Changes the
    dynamics of the team possibly......losing pieces of the team like they did with Festus/Barnes/Bogut/Speights
    when they signed Durant. In theory anyway.

    Eric Gordon is actually a viable 3rd star in 'brackets'. Not a bad choice. He can up his stats.

    Well, nobody thought of that?

    Hmm so being optimistic means I'm declaring that I'm an insider?

    We don't need a star. We need solid
    Why? Not like we were winning anything before the trade.

    Me too. I know you got to get CP3 if available, but I feel like we are in the same place as last year or potentially worse. And by that I mean= getting swept by GS.

    At what point do we start worrying about Minnesota instead of GS? That team seems ridiculous on paper.

    You worry about both, and SA and possibly OKC.
