    Whitmore, salary filler and three firsts for Murphy would be insane.

    Fred will sign a reasonable deal and he will serve as filler if we want to go make another big trade.

    I thought Marshall's *is* just a big clearance rack?

    I think we may move FVV for salary/additional depth or make some pretty minor moves with the end of the roster.

    Resign FVV, maybe add some more shooting. If we do spend any significant assets it needs to be on long term options.

    The core for next season is set, now we wait to see how KD holds up and whether the young players take big steps.

    Amen Tari and Jabari should really live with him all day and night. Pick his brain.

    This roster with Dursnt is a contender what the hell are you smoking?

    Rox were already 2nd seed without KD. Add KD to this team they are the best team in the league on paper.

    Green+Dillion = KD this year
    Green 2 yr extension = KD 2 yr extension+ alittle from Dillion's money
    Hopefully, it works out and we have some money from Dillion's yr 3-4 available and + Fred's restructured contract to resign Jabari/Amen/Tari as their contracts will be up within the next few years.

    Keep in mind the Rockets have two very valuable FRPs in 2027: The Suns pick and a swap option with the Nets.

    They are still loaded for bear to make a huge blockbuster trade.
