    The Rockets right now are that team in your fantasy football league trying to convince you to take Peyton Barber and Jordy Nelson for Todd Gurley.

    Correct. Yes, Morey tries for any star that's even remotely on the market. No, Berman usually doesn't tweet about it. Mark is great at filtering.

    Is this based on your intel or based on your opinion? IE, are you throwing cold water here based on something you know?

    I can't even recall him tweeting about the Rockets pursuing Lebron at all. Normally Berman tweets don't come down until he's announcing news.

    What do you feel about Chris Hogan and Alex Collins for Todd Gurley?

    If we trade EGo for Tomball Jimmy... and then Jimmy walks next off season... how much will that save Tilman in payroll + luxury taxes next year?
    Then in 2020 if we don't have EGo (or Butler) and their Bird rights... how much does that save in payroll + luxury taxes + repeat offender taxes? esp with no large contracts (outside the big 3) to use in a salary matching trade...
    follow the money trail... ;)

    Hopefully PJ Tucker is not Peyton Barber.
