    With the exception of Bev, which critical piece did we NOT bring back from last year? And please don't say Lou (only had for 3 months) or Trez (who barely played in the playoffs). Dekker might be included if his jumpsuit didn't go completely AWOL and Tucker is like a billion times better than him.

    I said rotation, you changed the verbiage to critical to try and trap me.


    Try harder next time:)

    My apologizes. Was meaning to quote Solid and definitely not trying to trap you. You should be able to tell from my post though that I am of the same mindset as you about this though. :)

    How can that be if we traded away six players in one deal?

    Because last year's team was not capable of beating Golden State. So we can get knocked out in the 2nd round or WCF for the next few years, or throw a hail mary.

    We traded away 3 players and a victory cigar, the rest were fillers that we paid cash for. Of those 3 players, only one was actually worth something (Beverley) and the others were basically a rookie with a broken jumpshot and an undersized hustle forward who didn't even play in the playoffs. So, what real continuity/cohesion did we give up exactly?

    Another rumor with no proof.

    And the Rockets still haven't improved their front court.

    It looks like the Rockets' front office needs to be blown up.

    What's up, rook? You ever have to wait on anything in your life ever or do you just throw a tantrum and make **** happen?

    Wait for what?

    We have good PFs and Cs who we could sign right now.

    We should focus on that before that become unavailable like some of the players we were targeting have.

    Do we? Are you on the inside? Do we have the amount of money they're looking for? Years? Role? Seriously, contain yourself. You seem foolish.

    "Bad info lately"? More like a HORRIBLE post on your part. He said they were "INTERESTED" in Nick Young. What part of that don't you get?

    Interest doesn't mean signing or done deal.

    Like clockwork, here come the Cyber defenders. :D

    How about they were never even LINKED to Gordon Hayward or Nick Young.

    For being VERY INTERESTED, Woj or Stein or Sam Amick or Chris Haynes or Marc Spears or Shams or Mannix or any other NBA insider/reporter would've reported something, no?

    but but but they wanted to keep it secret!
    but but but things change! Things are fluid!
    :rolleyes:

    Cyber is hit and miss. He just throws all kinds of darts around hoping one or two may hit. His record is about 30%

    I'm on team Codman! Straight shooter, No Ego. Doesn't take his ball and go home when his paging thread is closed like cyber did. LMAO
