    Surprised no PG on a minimum deal, because we cannot count on Gordon and Bev health wise!

    I like that lineup too BUT I LOVE;

    Harden/Gordon/Ariza/Anderson AND Jahlil Okafor more!;)

    DMo, KJ and #1 to Philly for Okafor
    Capela, Brewer to Minny for Ricky

    "Impact player"? No, I don't see us having the assets to pull an impact player... and no, nobody's gonna want a pooh pooh platter of all our various spare parts...

    So probably see a minor move or two (bu pg)... but for the most part... this is the roster...

    I think at then end of the day (right before TC?), Morey will pull off a dozy trade (showing that he is currently only 2nd to Jerry West as a GM)

    HOU In: PG Eric Bledsoe + G John Jenkins
    PHO In: G/F Corey Brewer + G/F K.J. McDaniels (HOU) + 2017 POR 2nd round pick from HOU + 2018 HOU 1st round pick + 2018 HOU 2nd round pick + rights to PG Sergio Llull + F Sam Dekker (HOU)

    That's not a bad haul for Phoenix for the former 18th (& 23rd)overall pick in the draft who is currently redundant on their squad.


    HOU
    PG Bledsoe; Beverley; Payton III
    SG Harden; Gordon; Jenkins
    SF Ariza; Beasley; Wiltjer
    PF Anderson; Motiejunas; Harrell
    C Capela; Nene; Onauku

    Tom Haberstroh's ESPN Insider article suggesting that the Heat tank this year. And part of the process would be trading away Dragic.

    This chance crossed my mind, but I wasn't going to be the one to bring up his name. :)
