    Wall, House, Porter, Green, Wood are all setting out and could probably play. Gordon value is rising. We have lots of parts that have value. Mixing and matching could land us with a very different looking team. Sengun is our future so hopefully what returns fits with him.

    Man CF is slipping. 24 responses in 3 hours? This would be 15 pages deep in the first 30 minutes back in 1999 2019.

    I think it's just that no one believes it.

    I could definitely see Wood, House and EG involved.

    I don't care who the Rockets get. As long as they get rid of John Wall, Eric Gordon, Nwaba, Theis, and Danuel House. I'm probably asking for too much, but hopefully at least Danuel House and John Wall leave.

    The Wolves were really close to being pretty good. Had they not won those last few meaningless games last season, that could have picked up Barnes or Mobley and not have to have given their pick to GS.,Add Ben Simmons and that is a really good starting unit.

    Kat
    Simmons
    Barnes
    Russell
    Edwards

    I'd say an allstar power forward who used to play point forward would fit with him and the team.

    I can see us facilitating but not as a landing spot for Simmons. Stone passed on him already.

    Morey and 4 team deals don’t have a good history

    Morey likely to be at the podium talking about what deal he almost did that blew up at the last second

    None of those teams really have any valuable picks. The best is Sac has Detroits 2nd rounder. That said, I 'd really like to get that pick. Rockets need a low 2nd to flip for a pick in the 20's to another team like we did with MiL last year. I can't remember if that got us Garuba or Christopher.

    It was Tucker that got us the pick.

    They owed us one, we pushed it back another year and sent Tuck and a 2nd for another 1st

    Back to back picks for Garuba and Christopher - s9 doesn't really matter which way you see it
