    Not that I'm aware of. He always wanted to stay in Miami.

    The Rockets last year when CP3 got settled in became the slowest team in the NBA. It's also the way the Rockets played in the playoffs. And presumably that's what the Rockets simply want to do as a team going forward.

    OKC had the 9th rated pace 2 seasons ago when Westbrook was the MVP. Presumably they want to return more to that style than the slow pace one they played with Melo last year.

    I'm not a fan of Royce Young but his inside info on the Thunder is legit.

    I made it a policy a few years back to place no value in anything said by anybody named 'Royce'... ;)

    Royce only referenced how we were average in pace last year...if that’s what he’s going by, then OKC was even slower...that’s all I’m saying

    OKC was like 18th-20th in pace for much of the season
