    We know Morey is working on something.

    There is a reason that House, Rivers and Green have not signed their contracts yet.

    I really feel we can steal Winslow in a okc/mia deal. But okc will 100% want Winslow Bc hes 23.

    That's the problem. And why I don't see the Rockets getting Winslow. I don't see how the Rockets can get into this deal really. Other than throwing in a FRP into OKC's war chest.

    How many first round picks is Okc gonna save? Literally they’re saving all the FRP for a year rental of Giannis in a year when he requests a trade Bc the bucks lost to Boston in the 2nd round. Then he’ll dip and go to NY.

    The one you deserve since you like non- shooters so well, you COF.

    Can't wait until he's on an All NBA Team next year and you have to admit he's great.

    I’m amazed that people here don’t realize this. What morey is doing is great for a hedgefund...but the goal here is to win a championship

    I wouldn't mind admitting that at all. LOL. Hope it happens too. But it won't happen next year.

    We got that already with a new owner and his little 'Josh Kroenke' widget son running around leaking info like a sieve when he's drunk.

    I agree completely on Winslow, Riley would keep him if possible, he is reasonably affordable, young and Swiss-army knife type player. If OKC can snag him they can see if he can take the next step in his game and get a steal, otherwise they can trade him later for a better pick than our picks. But maybe I'm wrong and Morey can Jedi mind trick Winslow to Houston.

    Anyone can buy-in and sit at a poker table; doesn’t mean you’re a good poker player. Rockets are terrible at it.

    so by this logic, everyone that's rated high enough to be a contender and reach the final table qualify as being terrible. got it

    this is why cf's has become as bad as its been

    Honestly, a lot of times it feels like Morey's playing Mouse Trap.
