    Best minimum signing I can remember in a long time. Wish Josh the best. He deserves his $6 mil per.

    Stone once gave Tate 3 yr/21M, but he won’t give it to Okogie because Okogie wasn’t draft by him.

    I think he is a better player than Tari.

    Stone did a great job in finding Josh but did a poor job with roster construction so now the Rockets can't keep him.

    I agree, I would trade him for Tari right now.

    That bum (Tari) doesn’t deserve that contract.

    Stone has a tendency of overvaluing the players he drafted.

    always played hard. Great defensive awareness and intensity. Just isn’t talented offensively.
