    Too bad the GM sitting in New Orleans doesn't own an insider newsletter

    Might as well do this right. Note: We are keeping Capela!

    I guess so........ Morey must too, that's why he won't pull the trigger on that trade.

    Morey tends to hold onto tweener bigs with low IQ longer than he should.

    Morey needs those low IQ players. Who else will he be able to beat at chess? Call it an act of selfishness, but those low IQ players boost his ego & make him feel good about himself. There's nothing Morey enjoys more than eating a steak dinner while bragging to his wife all about how he played & demolished the likes of Marquees Chriss & other undersized bigs at chess.

    Uhm, probably algorithm takes into account position. They’re in the same position at PF. So less minutes, skewing their actual effectiveness in the winshare column.

    LOL somehow the scrub thinks he has some trade value around the league. The Rockets would have gladly given him away if there's a team willing to take on his salary.

    I dont think he doesn't want to hustle. He just has no brain for BB. Doesn't know what to do when he gets out there.

    You’re too dumb!!!!

    That should be the universal answer for every question that Chriss asks......

    Why can’t I earn playing time?
    Why am I behind everyone on the depth chart?
    Why is nothin working for me?
    Why can’t you trade me?
    Why do the kids at the playground make fun of me?

    See how that works....

    Because the Rockets are only going to lose 3 games for the rest of the season.

    The funniest is trading Love for picks and it says the Cavs will lose like 15 more games this season due to it.
