    The person you refered to as "scapegoated" in your own post is now putting up solid numbers on a winning team. Playing dumb?

    I’d 100% prefer Nunn, not sure the Heat would. They are having issues with ball handling.

    money doesn’t work either. Same with Okpala. Harkless is simply for matching.

    Wish boogie the best. I wanted it to work out for us. I still believe the injury to wood and a certain extent defeciencies on how he was used is the culprit. We could use his toughness on and off the floor... most especially size. Not the allstar boogie, but this boogie could still help us, except coaching failed to put hin in a position to do so.

    NBA Players: "man can you believe the Tilman-lead Rockets team and what they did to Harden the superstar? Traded picks to dodge the tax instead of trying everything they could to improve the team to get James that ring. Man i'll never forget they don't care about winning just the owner's money"

    NBA Players a few months later: "yeah forget what I thought before man. Did you see THEY DID BOOGIE COUSINS RIGHT. I'm gonna call my agent right this second so they can get me to Houston man. That's a classy run organisation there. THEY DID BOOGIE RIGHT BRO"

    Cousins hasnt played great but he was also the only other dude taller than 6'8 besides Wood.

    He actually played decent the first couple of games as a starter but I guess the heavy load caught up to him and he been playing bad cuz he is just gassed. He also wasnt happy subbing in for Wood we know this cuz his BFF JWall has been on the down low freezing Wood out of the offense.

    Maybe the Rox really like Justin Paton and think Cousins will throw a fit if he gets limited to like 10 mins a night. I really hope there is a trade though, would hate to lose Cousins for nothing.

    Doubt NBA players think this.

    I mean, the Rockets tried to add Jimmy Butler to CP3 but he wasn't that eager in winning here. It's not like they didn't try and people keep acting like CP3 played well before the year. He didn't. Going into that season most people here thought he was a horrible contract that would only get worse as he aged.

    Like, I really doubt NBA players have any sympathy for Harden not winning championships lol.

    It sounds like a buyout I will believe we get something back when I see it.

    I honestly don't think players give a damn about what happens within an organisation since they are the ones who give them their absurd salaries.

    I was more mocking the twitter comment which suggested the move would be seen as a positive with players around the league.
