    I wasted about 10 minutes of time watching 2 minute videos of each of these guys.

    Morey purging scrubs left and right...I love it

    make Houston a scrub free zone...no more Ennis’s, no more Marquise’s, no more Melo’s, and no more B. Knight’s

    yeah this is not even Morey's fault. He's more of an accountant than GM at this point. Having a cheap ass owner will be this team's ultimate downfall.

    Let's not be so short sighted here. Morey is creating a lot of roster and cap flexibility both this year and with the repeater tax implications in the future. Who cares if we dump a bunch of bums that aren't playing in the playoffs anyway?

    Tman sends out 3 2nds and 1st to save money. Bucks send out 4 2nds for Mirotic.

    Get used to these sorts of moves. Bulls fans have been living with a cheap owner for years. Now it’s the Rockets turn.

    Morey's going to send that cash to Tilman after the deadline in an envelope with a note that says "keep the change". That's how you get a huge bonus.

    You'd think Morey has a better pulse on what players would be interested in going to Houston if bought out the way he's wheeling and dealing right now.....right?

    The team has some of the most plugged in players in the league with Harden and Chris.

    There's the Swap...(Good ear!)

    - Still, 10 minutes ago got a text that said hang tight. Meaning, I think cash and other considerations complete this deadline.

    Waiting on a text back from my friend. (anxiously)

    The dude is acquiring scrubs just to trade them. Maybe he's in full rage about how all the offseason scrubs turned out.
