    I for one, am glad that Morey is GM of the Rockets.

    Obviously to capture the Chinese market Duh?! When Yao left we didn’t have any more Asians that were decent.

    That’s how we’ve stayed relevant all these years.

    Green was 5th best offensive player in OKC series, before Russ returned. Not bad for a 6th man. Certainly better than Rivers or McLemore.

    You must have only watched 4th game in that series.

    the only team that would want russ is one that wants to show the "greatest show on turf". Some team that wants someone that used to be relevant that can sign autographs. We are looking at the hornets, knicks, Orlando, and wolves. We need expirings. We won't get picks. Give us expirings so we can try to find harden the next Klay and Siakam. Either that or package harden, russ, and EG, clear up cap, draft players, and find euro picks. We would need a **** load of good picks though because we don't own many for the near future.

    Exactly.

    We were Yao's team. So we were China's team. "Keep the party going, Daryl.......get me Jeremy Lin!" said Les.

    Now, of course, we're China's pariah. Daryl Morey: keepin' it real.

    Yeah, almost all those scenarios are appealing. That is why I am asking if there is any substance to it.

    Hell Barrett and a top 10 pick along with Payton and Gibson. Not sure you could do better.

    If any team can be that dumb, it's the Knicks. :D

    Let's only hope that is the case. Westbrook would be good there.

    Big time drop off compared to the play in games.

    In the LAL series, sure.

    Not so much OKC series.

    And everything gets harder in postseason. There are many more players you should be targeting before Green. Green actually outperformed expectations and was a huge upgrade over Sefolosha.
