    It sounds like exactly what we wanted.

    Sengun and KD out for quality young players and picks.

    I sure would like to see Kingston become a Rocket.
    Ayo too, for that matter.

    Extend the timeline.

    I think that is a bad idea to put that out there like that.

    It would need to be KD & DFS for Butler & Podz to make the salaries work, which would be even better for us.

    If this is true, I hope we find a new home for KD and get into the 1st rd tomorrow. This would be a win/win and I won't target any specific pick, but all of those teams from DAL, GS, MIA, etc. would fit well with some potential talent.

    Are there any teams out there that could use a Sengun that would be willing to also part with young talent? I don't think he is getting you into the top 5 of the draft himself.

    Sengun to Chicago with the Splitter connection.

    Sengun and a 2027 pick for #4, Giddey and Essengue.

    For KD i'm looking at Miami (#13, Ware centered + salary), GSW (#11, Butler, Podz) , Minnesota (Naz Reid (perfect compliment if they keep Sengun), Donte and Joan Beringer (maybe Terrence Shannon Jr) I'd love McDaniels, not sure if they would trade him and the Clippers (#5 and salary based, harder but possible, Rockets may have to throw a future first in for that too).

    Imagine turning Sengun and KD into Boozer or Peterson somehow. Both of those guys pair with Amen SO well long term and could be serious franchise level guys. This is genuinely exciting news the night before the draft.

    What a toxic board room.

    Already leaked that we're looking to trade a young all-star together with the toxic waste of talent that is washed/injury-prone KD.

    I'm not looking forward to the moves they're going to make.

    I would not expect anything lower than #9 in the draft. Sengun or KD will not net a top 8 pick.

    Encouraging if true. Good to hear they have that much sense.

    yes but if I’m trading Sengun I want a stud prospect or a high draft pick back. We cannot sell low on Sengun just because he doesn’t fit with Amen. He’s still a premier 23 yr old prospect. Another team that knows how to develop him and use him properly is going to really benefit.

    As they should. But don't be afraid to reject anyone treating us like a desperate party. We don't NEED to do anything.

    I would trade KD & DFS to the Warriors for Butler, Podz, and #11.

    Then I would trade Sengun to the Nets for Nic Claxton, Egor Demin, and #6.

    I just had an idea.

    Sengun and 2027 Brooklyn pick to Chicago.

    Pick #4 , Dillon Brooks and Essengue to Houston

    Giddey + Suns 2027 Pick to Phoenix


    what if the Rockets did this to get Jalen Green back? :p
