    Why is Boston so stingy? They whiffed on Butler and George for a bag of magic beans?

    yes, and if Boston doesnt take Noah in return, they will have a lot of cap space to sign Hayward
    Porzingis has a rookie contract

    With things really heating up around the league this off-season, it's like getting a bucket of cold water dumped over your head.

    Because Butler and George are Butler and George, but a mystery box could be anything! It could even be Butler or George!

    Indiana wants something the Celtics are refusing to offer.

    Indiana probably has a deal on the table already but are trying their best to tempt the Celtics to offer what the Pacers want.

    The tough part for Rockets fans during this is that with Woj not being a source for Rocket news, we don't have frequent updates.

    Doesn't look like the Celtics are going to put Jaylen Brown or the Lakers pick in a PG trade. Rockets still have hope somehow.

    Yup. Amick is our best bet, but he is much less frequent.

    Do we have any reason to believe that Morey is in on PG? I've seen the celtics and lakers rumors, had anyone verified that the Rockets are at least involved? Even if on the outskirts?

    Would seem like that's out the window. I'm holding out hope for a Ryan Anderson to SAC trade for #20.

    Marc Stein and Ramona tweeted just before the draft that the Rockets were in heavy pursuits.

    But that was before the Butler trade and now the biggest front is that the Pacers and Celtics were in serious conversations (now stalled)
