    Even without Durant, the Nets still have Irving, Spencer Dinwiddie, Caris LeVert, Taurean Prince, Garrett Temple, DeAndre Jordan and Jarrett Allen. It’s a very talented roster.

    Hes had four years to learn how. Lots of athletic bigs with four years of practice could master what he has.

    Lots of athletic bigs would have developed a jump shot and a handle by then too. Lopez did it in one year.

    Not saying hes garbage, but his contract was a mistake. The C position is the least impactful on the floor other than maybe the PF, and even those guys have to do a little bit of everything when a team goes small.

    Lopez developed a handle?

    Really?

    Lopez always had a jumper it's amazing the length that some people got to shot on Capela.

    Name these lots athletic boys that have developed a handle a jump shot?

    Conspiracy theory: all of the players that want to join rockets start doing their research and find out about clutchfans forum. Then they read it. Then they choose other teams

    Don't think there was any reports of interest between Jordan and Rockets-- in fact, all reports were Jordan likely to sign with his friend KD's team, if I remember correctly.

    Durant, Irving, DJ, and Temple? That's a hell of a haul. My only question is what happens in year one when KD isn't playing and Kyrie is basically the team leader? That didn't work out so well in Boston.

    If Butler isn’t in Houston, not much reason for him to come off the bench in Houston.

    Apparently DJ took a discount for good friend KD.... seems Harden has no friend.

    So you're saying there's still a chance to get Rubio?
