    Another name i don't see how it could end up here, pretty sure his contract is also for two more seasons and he makes 15M per year...he's old, had a ton of conditioning problems this season, so much that Miami suspended him...i don't know, let's say.

    Old but still strong as an ox and can dunk on anyone.

    This is why you don't question Morey. He is by far one of the greatest GM's ever.

    Ch said "not exciting but a fit"...might actually be Johnson, pretty much another PJ without shot but who can pass.

    Still have a hard time thinking about Tilman paying the tax for this guy.

    James Johnson sucks. He can’t shoot and is slow as hell.

    Have you ever heard the phrase "there's no use crying over spilled milk"? Definitely applies here.

    Add Tyson to the 4 team deal and we’d have enough outgoing salary to take on Johnson.

    Rumor is that MIA is going after Gallo as well. OKC won’t want to take on any of MIA’s long term salary, so maybe we can help facilitate here.

    Is Tillman really willing to go deep in the tax for him though (personally, I love love love his game)

    Shooting 35% from 3 this season.

    Rockets have liked him in past I believe.

    The Rockets can't keep everyone you know

    Also, players develop

    He was not a part of the deal, it got modified in the 24th hour because salaries got rejected as I recall

    As usual. I used to like him a lot, but we need to acquire Baynes if he is fit. His 5.4 M expiring contract should be tempting for Tilman.
