    Honestly. I don't know if jokic plays more than 5 to 6 years. He is 28 now, he is def not playing until he is 38. So if it's for 10 years I am picking alpi. If it's for next 5 year I am taking jokic

    That dude is pro since early ages... they still claim he can develop as if he is still a teenager...

    Usually, a player's progress in a professional scene stops after some time. Although there are a few exceptions, how can we be sure that he is an exception? Why should we invest in him and risk the success of our franchise?

    Just telling you ahead of time, but most of you will eventually admit, "you were right, @OnlyRockets"

    Dude! Don't agree with anyone's argument and definitely don't reply to their post. Even if they have somehow a plausible argument (not saying him's argument is plausible), you are making their argument a CLOWN SHOW....

    Good analogy but if he chooses, I can see him playing until then because, he is not going to get any slower nor jump any higher. He is what he is.

    I equated him to Harden, except Harden is a guard. Harden was once quicker, Jokic has always been slow, although he lost weight, he is still slow.

    So, you say after 5yrs Sengun will be better. In what areas? I'll give you shooting, because I can see his shot coming on but what else?

    A solid argument can be made that promoting lesser players is a waste of time, especially if those players have been playing professionally for a significant amount of time by the age of 21.

    Excuse me, but maybe next time you can add a little bit of valuable information to the discussion?

    Why you don't want him to agree with my assessment? Im curious.

    Im not demeaning Alpi, Im not saying he's horrible, in fact I said he’s a boderline All - Star. So what's the issue?

    right! what value you added to the argument again? What structured analytical technique you used to compare these players and come up with your conclusion? You are dealing with different type of animal here, buddy! Stay in your course or how you say it...go on and get!

    Oh there is no issue with your argument. I was just telling him...that he is a clown! Sorry, nothing to do with you...I might not agree with you but I respect your opinion!

    I'm not interested in personal confrontations. But your registration date explains a lot...

    Please try to get some more reputation in this forum and then we can talk about things.

    I've got this great trade. Lemme know what you think.

    Rockets Trade:

    - All clutchfans members who berate each other over hypothetical fantasy scenarios (not unlike nerds who argue over who would win in a fight between Superman and Batman)

    Rockets Receive

    - Nothing. Problem solved.

    Can anyone tell me how this type of satirical piece contribute our serious potential trades discussion?

    I diligently posted a reasonable trade idea that would make our roster composition a perfect one but all the things I see in this topic are full of humor pieces. Can we please back to discuss my trade proposal?

    How about Nick Richards from Hornets? I know he signed a new contract but he is cheap!

    The Hornets won't let him leave. They are not going to want player #28 either, unless we significantly increase our offer. Maybe adding Tate and Landale can lure them.
