yea, I remember that one as well. That was the one when we were up by like 20 and the refs tried their best to bring SAS back, n then Harden with a clutch 3, right?
I think so. If I recall, Dwight got a key offensive rebound late in the 4th and kicked it back to Harden for a 3.
It will be a big mistake to let D-Mo go now, just because Smith is arriving. Josh cannot be relied upon to be the almost exclusive 4. Morey and Les should wait, to see how Donatas and Josh play along with each other, and Howard. D-Mo is an underrated defender, and an upcoming offensive player. He may even play better,if Josh can take off some pressure from him.
Let me start by saying, I almost always agree with your posts. You're money and I like what you bring to the board. While I agree Capela has tremendous upside, I don't think we can worry about that too much right now. The Rockets should be all in THIS year. If that means trading Capela for the right deal, we have to do it.
All he mentioned is that they are trying to make a deal to clear room. Probably why Smith won't sign until Thursday or Friday. Giving the Rockets time to make the necessary moves. Most guesses are that with Capella being called up that he is part of the trade. Most likely they are wanting to move Dorsey since he is guaranteed. If not I figure they will be cutting Black at that point.
Compare to Dorsey & Black, I would rather DM makes a trade for Nick Johnson or Alex Shev. We might need Dorsey & Black's big body in the playoff. They defnitely defend the opponent big better than Jones and D-Mo. At the other hand, Nick can't play the PG and too small fo the 2s. Plus, he's young, should be easier to trade.
black doesn't defend anything. Dorsey blocks shots and sets screens. Dmo is the 4th best defender in the league in the post.
We need to know what the Suns are trying to achieve with the cap room they just created through trade.
If you are the Suns do you take KPap and Capela for Dragic? The contract KPap signed was always intended to be used in a trade and with Brewer and Smith here, we really do not have many minutes for him.
