Dude isn't a GM ......you see that with the imbalance of wings, the most midget guards and tons of Centers. And he can't directly call up GMs to consolidate, he has to go thru Stone and Fertitta, an unnecessary indirect route. Just wait and see if he runs KD into the ground.
I wouldn't mind starting Finney Smith and playing him in closing minutes for now as long as the young guys get slightly more play time than him.
I like Smith, but he lacks ball handling skills and we are VERY short on ball handling players......KD is too old to bring it up, FVV is too slow and Amen is still learning.......as is Reed. If teams want to beat us, pressure the ball - we don't have a guy that is elite at it....and can beat his man off the dribble, that is our biggest weakness still..... Unless Reed and Amen got a lot lot better it will hold us back. DD
[Scotto] The Houston Rockets signed Dorian Finney-Smith to a four-year, $53 million deal, which is fully guaranteed the first two seasons, has a third-year non-guaranteed salary, and a fourth-year non-guaranteed salary and player option
Usually stuff like this come out sooner but in a smaller tweet after the initial Chams big tweet. But it seems they are just taking longer and longer to release the "oh it's not nearly as much money" press release these days. I remember FVV's option also took a while to come out even though it felt like it should've existed from the start.
lmfao, I retract any hesitancy i had on the FO regarding this signing and honestly anything else they do this season now. only 2 years guaranteed is a masterclass all because Pelinka was trying to tank DFS value and the Rockets didn't blink. Stone really is that guy. He deserves EOTY if the Rockets are a top three seed.
Massive win. Deal fully aligned with Durant’s timeline, also allows Rockets flexibilities when Amen’s next (big) contract kicks in. Last but not least, lol Lakers.
I always took Chams as mostly from players/agents as Woj was the from the team source. As I think we are only getting info from the agent side early with Woj retired, the data released early is the stuff that looks good for the player.
