    I don't know how...but Spurs will be all over that.

    Duncan/Manu/Parker to Aldridge/Leonard/Conley.

    Conley is not leaving memphis, but if you ask most of our bbs, they would jump for joy if that happened, they think conley is extremely overrated and not worth the contract he is likely going to get.

    Goes to show you fans are irrational. I've heard that spurs fans on their bbs wish that pop would hit the next train outta town, lol.

    Houston would be a great fit. Miami would be great for Conley, as well, but I think Dragic is their long term plan.

    Don't blame Conley at all for leaving Memphis. So many options out there for a player like him.

    He's from my hometown and is a really good guy. I wish him the best and will (probably) cheer for his new team as long as it isn't the Lakers.

    More free agents on the move the better.
    Not just for the Rockets but for the NBA as a whole.
    I find it more interesting.

    Conley is a great PG. somewhat of a CP3 light but still great.

    I don't think he's an ideal for next to Harden. He'd be great in New Orleans with Davis or the TWolves to replace Rubio. He'd be great in Utah. Of course better he goes to the East.

    If Conley can play and be effective with ojmayo and rude gay, I say sign him up

    Conley's face looks real old. Like he looked 32 his rookie year.

    He should come to Houston and fix our chemistry. But I don't trust mauri anymore to sign the right complementary players.

    Conley will go from "most underrated" to bad contract almost as soon as the ink dries.

    He won't fit with Harden - unless Harden changes the way he plays.

    Jazz would be a good fit. They need a veteran floor general who can play defense. Possibly the Bucks as well.

    I doubt any POINT guard would fit with harden unless if he is a straight up sharp shooter like say.... Buddy Hield.

    I've blocked him bc I thought he was a troll, but might undo it bc of the entertainment value. Yeah, I was at the bar hanging with the guys the other day, and I too heard that Spurs fans on their message boards want to get rid of Pop, lolol. :grin::grin::grin: That's such a fantastical statement to make.
