“My basketball ops [operations] got maybe a little weak at the end, and I just said, ‘We’re doing this. We are going to make the change.” That reads to me like Morey didn’t really want to make the deal.
Haha. Relax. I’m not trying to be down on anyone specific or start a narrative, and has nothing to do with our exit. I actually thought it was super cool to pair Russ and Harden. I just believe that if Harden and Tilman didn’t have a say, and it was fully up to Morey and only Morey, based on basketball and taking any strain in relationships out of the picture, he would definitely not trade CP3 and those picks for Russ. You can disagree. Neither of us actually know.
his intelligence. Just research him, watch his interviews. He loves chess and would play in the park growing up. https://www.sbnation.com/college-ba...8/mohamed-bamba-texas-wingspan-nba-draft-2018 He considered Harvard. That means he had the grades to get in. He’s an incredibly bright young man and Morey would love to have him.

Y’all too hard on house. Get off your moral high horse there’s much more selfish worse guys than house. He’s an idiot that made a mistake you act like Houston is a hot spot for free agents and that we have flexibility to improve this team. House is one of the few guys with upside that we have on a cheap contract everyone else is past their prime and declining. Y’all too emotional. Losers sell low. We should be targeting undervalued “bad character” high upside players cause morey and tilman ****ed this roster up.
Good read thanks. Hard working kid with a good head on his shoulders. Now let’s get him to work with Hakeem.
Sorry let me rephrase that... if we can get mobamba without losing Harden and possibly roco and tucker... he deserves a shrine...
Well I absolutely adore Mo Bamba. There is no chance any of those guys would be traded for him if he was the main guy coming back. It would be House. Anything more, more players would be coming in. For salary purposes alone. Like maybe Eric Gordon + House for Mo Bamba + Fournier or a SNT of DJ Augustin.
So we should rely on a guy who didn't show up last playoffs and literally didn't show up against LA? If you get a chance to go for a young high ceiling guy now for a high floor guy, you do it.
