    Lue considered starting him over JR Smith in the Finals when JR wasn't hitting shots. Cause Shump is a really good perimeter defender and could hopefully slow down Golden State.

    Have to wait and see what this is all about...

    Morey is a pretty good faith negotiator so I'd be surprised if he did that

    Sure if only Millsap would take a 11m contract. No Anderson trade=no Millsap.

    From Paul George to Iggy to Iman Shumpert.

    I should have just trusted my Houston sports gut.

    Chris Paul is a rental. We get bounced in second round. Harden leaves in 2019 and we rebuild around Capela.

    Iman is going to teach the Rockets how to be winners, isn't he?

    Deal makes no sense to me. His contract can hurt us next summer.

    Looks like we keeping Anderson so we need some more defense and he can bring some of that plus he can hit the corner three with the best of them. I like that we are looking at better defenders cause we know we can score points

    Yeah, Michael Carter Williams would be a head scratcher. He's tall and lanky and can defend, but he's a bad perimeter shooter.

    I'll gove Iman this, his on-ball D was bery good, you can put him on Steph and he can chase him and contest well.

    Basically we are helping the Cavs, not necessarily making our team better.

    Not a capologist, but I would rather try to hijack Jonathon Simmons from the Spurs. The Spurs are trying to get him re-sign for only 9 mil per

    Haha

    From: rockets are confident they are getting george or melo, maybe both! Melo wants to join Houston on buyout deal! Rockets will pursue millsap and griffin! Rockets meeting with iggy!

    Now we are hoping for shumpert and scraps lol

    Not really, Houston is done having cap space. Will likely extend Harden and CP3 to mega deals soon.
