    There aren't any phone booths in Houston that Dwight can fit his ego into.

    He's going to get offers from other teams if only to jack up his asking price.

    Yes.

    Sign Baze -> sign Horford -> trade a package like Ariza/Brewer/fillers for no incoming salaries -> sign Durant

    Why are others locked up so quickly but not Bazemore? It's hard to interpret this as good unless he is waiting for Horford to meet with Rockets and the two decide: Houston or Atlanta?

    He is going to take other meetings with teams next week. We just happened to get a surprise meeting.

    I would think Dwight signing in Atlanta increases the chance of Horford coming here and decreases the chances of Bazemore coming here. Whether or not we are front runners, I don't know. But speaking only about our chances, that's how I feel. No room for Horford in the ATL front court, and Bazemore fills the new top need for Atlanta on the perimeter.

    It legitimately feels like nobody wants to play for Houston.

    I am dying for this first domino to fall. I want Baze and Horford, and then let Daryl go nuts on the trades for the rest.

    The fact we had to bust out Clyde & Dream to lure Kent Bazemore is pathetic.

    It's so stupid how one bad year ridiculed us so badly. Guarantee you if we swap out years, Durant listens to us.

    Such bull**** how fickle the world is. We're a very good team, a very talented team. We just have no discipline.

    Is Bazemore waiting for Horford to decide?

    Yeah it definitely does. The fact that we can't even get actual meetings with numerous FA's for pitches is very strange. Last year changed the views on this team so much
