    why do people keepsaying bazemore can create his own shot and shoot?

    umm have you seen him play recently? he was terrible shooting the 3 ball with the hawks. he started off very good then sucked later on in the season and playoffs.

    Moreyball is dead. While the corner 3 may be open, there won't be a emphasis on it like last year

    Has a nice mid range game. Perfectly capable of slashing to the rim and finishing, pulls up out of pick and roll. Umm have you seen him play recently?

    I was hearing 4 years for 70 million. 1st year salary ~16.395 million

    Rockets offered 4 years for 60 million. 1st year salary ~14 million

    Keeping DMo should not be a factor when signing FA's this offseason

    If you're going to overpay...overpay for quality not mediocrity. He's not worth $20 million! You pay 20 million dollars for an all star or borderline all star...not a bench role player! Rather sign Eric Gordon for cheap!:rolleyes:

    We could gain an extra ~3.9 million in cap space by stretching Brewer. We can also cut the non-gaurunteed contract of Andrew Goudelock for an additional 1.016 million in cap savings.

    So we can get an additional 5 million in cap space pretty easy, without renouncing DMo, if need be.

    Hopefully, Jordan Clarkson's deal helps us out. Regardless, I imagine Bazemore will see if there are any takers for his asking price. Understandably so with the new market. Bazemore should get the same deal as Clarkson.

    Look bottom line is this. Bazemore is not worth anything he is going to get.

    Is he good? Hes alright.

    Difference maker? Not even close.

    If he is your 2nd or 3rd option on offense, have fun with the 8th seed / 14th pick.

    Shout out to Codman. I believe he was first. He turned us on to Bazemore as a Rockets free agent target months ago. Thanks Codman. Always appreciate reading what you're hearing.
