    hopefully its just bev and ariza. kj can be a solid defensive guy off the bench, and with time, potential to be a decent three-ball guy. bev and ariza can gtfo after the patheti cplayoffs they had.

    why kj? give them goudelock or dekker. kj has too much upside. even avg 3d players dont come cheap.

    Oddly, he gets some things right and gets some occasionally placed cred; yet, mostly sophomoric horse-hockey. I have long suspected his ears occasionally are within distance of someone who knows something...like an uncle, or janitor?

    oh? You mean like last year Utah traded a MAX contract to be player for one of the latest picks in the draft?

    I think I'd do something like this if both sides are into it, but I can't imagine that it works. It's 17.8 million in salary with only 3.5 coming back.

    If the team getting the larger amount of salary isn't under the cap now, likely that team would have the cap space once the July moratorium ended.

    We don't need defenders anymore, didn't you hear we hired D'Antoni?

    I'd rather trade KJ than Bev or Ariza but would prefer to keep all 3 if we can but if we're getting an upgrade using one of those guys then I'm all for it

    Ariza is a mediocre defender now, and an average shooter. What did he shoot from deep in the playoffs?

    26% from the floor and 14% from deep I believe it was.

    Dude is passed his prime, get over it.

    He can still contribute. I'd like him off bench. I think he'd be a nice role player for us

    Team needs a starting center. Capela can't play extended minutes shooting 30%. So unless the league changes the hacka rule... the Rockets need a different center.

    I don't get the nerlens Noel's hype. Basically would be current dwight, great defense and rebounding with mediocre offense

    If it was for okafor is be hyped
