    With KD coming to the H, we will have to look for a two way SG. I think we could try to steal Grimes away from Philly. But if that’s not possible then who will we pick up for to play the 2. This is the only need right now. A starting and backup 2.

    SG and SF are interchangeable - players on the Rockets that can play SG

    KD, Cam, Tari, Reed (in certain matchups), Amen (in certain matchups).....we are good.

    And as we are now at the 2nd apron we can't sign anyone......gotta match salaries.

    Amen will be the starting SG, and will be expected to be the key offensive driver from the perimeter in the regular season. I'm like 99% positive you'll hear something about this from Stone directly or the media insiders will express that this trade was almost more about the Rockets' belief in Amen as a star.

    Amen is our SG. rightfully so. but FVV-Amen is the worst shooting backcourt in the league. one can't shoot and the other one can't and won't shoot.

    I think the will push Amen as pg as much as possible and Fred play a off ball shooter with KD & Jabari

    Reed & Cam about to audition for who replaces Fred in a year or two if Amem turns into a decent point

    Yep. Amen fits well with FVV and then Reed when he takes spot (crosses fingers).

    All you need is for Reed to make two 3's, a few gimmies, and a few assists in his 20 minutes and the need for a SG goes out the window... He can open up so much for the offense that a SG, by today's standards, can't do.. No need to overpay for a 2guard just to have one...
