    Dallas would take him in a heartbeat. They need a second ball-handler to take pressure off Luca.

    Buy him out is the only thing we can do, and not screw up our salary cap for the future.. or get some junk in return.

    Aye! Here you have a 31 year old player with a history of injuries causing him to miss a lot of games and who is owed $91 over the next 2 years. Teams will be lining up to trade for this guy...NOT!

    Wall should give up $19 million of his contract ($9.5 million per year) to be released and sign with another team for $9.5 million MLE.

    Really don't see it happening. The Mavs have their own version of Wall's contract with Porzingis who is due to make $31,650,600, $33,833,400 and $36,016,200 over the next 3 years.

    Wall could benefit as 6th man off the bench, if Rockets can not move him out to another team because of his atrocious contract. Since it will be an open process, hope Wall will understand maybe no team in the league will want him.

    The man has been nothing but professional, too many Rocket fans need to learn what class means.

    Thank you Wall for being a class act the entire time, I hope you win a championship.

    $121,000 a day to not play basketball then $131,000 to find something better to do a day next year. This just one day in the life of Mr. Wall.

    It’s just mind boggling.

    For him to be as grounded as he is, is a testament to him as a person.

    The Rockets shouldn't be sending any picks for Porzingas. Rockets can afford to stand pat with Wall, the Mavs can't.

    Interesting. He basically said F*ck y’all
    I cannot with the we guys
    I am not even going to bother trying to play with them
    I won’t even give it a shot

    but he is all class?????

    explain to me why Harden was less classy?

    I guess the press conference?
    Let’s see when wall is still sitting in April
    How classy he will be
    Than again 44 million

    It sure is.

    Another one that is even more messed up is how much Bezos makes every hour. For example when he goes goes to sleep and wakes up 8 hours later how much more he is worth is truly is mind boggling.
