    Woj: Correction... the Rockets are offering 8 picks. There will be 5 first rounders and 3 second rounders in the deal should Minnesota accept.

    We aren’t beating the Warriors as is for years. CP3s window is closing. Go for it I guess,

    so morey learned after game 4 that he needed to add more picks to his team that's "better than last year" sounds like he learned quite a bit after a few games.

    wheres the game 5 learning thread!

    In Morey we trust.
    Hes fully aware what 1st round picks are worth, just like he knows exactly how to get a couple back when he needs them later. Don’t worry guys. Going all in with the best GM as back up is much better than waste Hardens prime and restart again

    Maury sees Stepahnie is balling early and needs to make a move.

    Right because we have really built our teams on first round draft picks. Really, none of the guys in our lineup was drafted by the Rockets as a first round pick save for Capela and he nearly fell into the second round.

    Yes, something like
    Knight/4 picks to Hawks
    Hawks offer Kent Bazemore/2 rookies contracts to Wolves

    Can we sign and trade Jackie Moon instead of the fourth 1st rounder?

    if there's some kind of assurance butler will resign... i say we go for it. we get CP3, Harden, Capela, and JImmy for a few more years. SICK!!!

    With JH and Butler rockets window for contention will go up another 4 years...when you have stars others want to come. THE GAME IS ALL ABOUT STARS
    4first rounders are steep for a player whose leaving the team anyways in a couple months. But its a price im willing to pay.

    Before season we thought we might be good enough without Butler...now we realize we are farther away that we previously thought. LOVE THIS MANAGEMENT. very proactive, unlike texans.

    Get it done Morey!

    Honestly, I love that.

    So many other owners would sit back with Harden and CP3 and just milk the playoff appearances for the next 4-5 years. You have to love the mentality.

    It might blow up in our face but we are rebuilding 5 years from now anyways as CP3 retires and Harden starts to age.

    It's not really the big risk it may seem.
