    Yes, that would be an apt comparison if our third best player was banned from Toyota Center because he refused to get a COVID vaccine.

    Generally speaking, any argument that can fit on a bumper sticker is likely wrong.

    My son asked where to run after hitting the baseball. I’m like, “To firsts, dumb.”

    I would love Alvarado tenaciousness on this team and bringing DeAndre home finally seems fitting. Have you seen Jordan play lately? I'm wondering how much juice he has in his tank.

    FVV/Eason for Holiday and a future first. Combine the Holiday brothers.

    Sengun/Adams/Capela
    Smith/Sengun/DFS
    KD/DFS
    Amen/Reed
    Jrue Holiday/Aaron Holiday

    No thanks. Tari or DFS can be used as part of a bigger upgrade. I would hate to trade Tari, I admit, but the team comes first.

    I know we are desperate for a PG but giving up Tari for TJ McConnel is insane.

    All we need is Tari and DFS on the court and these trade proposals will die down.

    This. For anyone seriously considering trading before deadline, I would not look at any player that makes above $7-$10 million.

    Looking like a buy-out market for the Rockets this year.

    I read a news report that GS is looking to trade Stephen Curry. There is speculation that Houston might become the favorites to acquire him, while retaining Sengun, KD and Amen.

    Just wanted to share this. I don't believe a word of it. I don't want Stephen Curry on the Houston Rockets.

    Same, wouldn’t watch a single game if he was on the team and would be crushed if they won a title

    does utah even consider this? obviously we'd need to add 2-3 first round picks.

    Reed
    Amen
    Markkanen
    Durant
    Sengun

    is a nasty 5.
