    Dude got slightly under the mle. Guess Morey only offered the minimum. No way he left the Rockets to go to a lottery team unless it's about money.

    I wasn't the biggest Ariza fan and I even thought that this board overrated him a bit but I think anyone would objectively agree that Ariza was a better player last year.

    Better 3 point percentage, better fg percentage, less fg attempts, better ft percentage, Ariza only averaged 5 points less. That's not even taking into account the gigantic gap in defense.

    This is officially depressing lost both small forwards that defined our defense and signed a scrub in MCW I really do wonder what Daryl is doing.

    I mean...we just gonna let Capela take the QO too? Rockets don’t seem too interested in keeping last year’s team together so why not?

    Mbah a Moute is maybe someone I don't mind losing...

    Wonderful defender on the wing, but is a total liability offensively, and was a hundred times more exposed in the playoffs.
    Is this what Clutchfans has come to? Crying over losing 2 mid 30s defenders who have lost a step, and are liabilities offensively?

    Both Carmelo and MCW are jokes. Every team is laughing at us right now. It's hard for us to recover.

    Bad news comes here every day.

    Liabilities offensively. What does that make Melo who had worse percentages than either?

    And is a scrub defender?

    Happy to hear that, his second shoulder injury basically made him an non effective player and I don't believe he will ever recover from that.

    We can move on without him.

    Man I hate Iko, every time he reports something, it's always something bad about us and it happens.

    Does anyone else feel like we gonna get Parsons next? Sigh...

    At least offensively, we'll look more exciting. Melo at least gives you confidence when he chucks. Can't say the same about Luc and Ariza.

    ... and that's about it. Hopefully CP3 believing in Melo does otherworldly things that unlocks his youth.

    Meanwhile, Ryan Anderson becomes the biggest trade asset that Morey having on his hands.
