http://www.hoopsworld.com/2013-nba-free-agents Looking at the amount of FA available next season it looks like houston will be in perfect position to take on some good players. our top player will only make 8 mill next season and the cap space avaible according to bima will be huge. With no roster moves , 12-13 season will be hard to watch but with 2 top draft picks and the new CBA penalties for tax teams starting along with 20+ mill in space, we could potentially build a major team ( pending anyone running to dallas or cleveland). Is Morey cashing in on this season and waiting for the next offseaon to make his major transactions? Dwight and Bynum headline avail players and with the multiple over cap teams ( even GSW is over cap) and " no sign n trade for tax teams" starting we may finally get a chance to really rebuild while keeping the rookies. ppat and kmart come off the books next summers also opening up 15 mill in space + other moves morey will make by cutting players.
Morey's game is to have financial flexibility until he can get the superstar he wants to build around. So its not so much he's setting up for that particular season but just to be ready to capitalize on any situation that occurs.
you can pretty much say that he`s setting us up for every offseason. say what you want about Morey. But flexibility has been his #1 priority... until he finds his star players.
This pretty much sums it up. Cap Flexibility. Attain a Superstar. Build the team around the superstar. It isn't rocket science folks..........
We're making our own luck. Anytime a major player moves on to a new team, it's when that team is in the right situation at the right time. Morey is making sure we are in the right situation at all times.
The overall idea isn't rocket science, but I'd bet balancing all the details makes it more like rocket science than not.
exactly, Boston had to have the cap to aquire their big three, same with Heat. Cap space means Superstar plus money to throw at another one and build a team
I'm not trying to be THAT guy, but don't we get this topic every year? I'm sure we'll have a... "Morey setting Rockets up for 14-15 offseason." next year.
But whats different is possibly two top ten picks and the Dallas pick on top of the four rookies this year and cap space.I think he has done a good job and is going to make something happen i just hope its not thrown away for a b---- ass cry baby.
Still in WAIT AND SEE mode. Tired of trying to figure out the magical moment when all the plotting and planning pays off. Rocket River
Takes Hoopsworld 2 months after the draft to report and write what we've known and discussed countless times on the BBS. CATCH UP FOOLS!!!
The thing I don't get is when people say Morey is making moves to save his job. I can't believe people argue that. Damn 610 am.
