The rumors were nice, and suggesting the Rockets were doing something but in the end everything died down. Have to limp it back. Hopes are up for strengthening the bench.
Oubre (SNT), Jonathan Simmons (Vet Minimum), Tyson Chandler (Vet minimum), and Jamychal Green (Remainder of MLE either NTMLE if we do a SNT or Tax Payer's if not) are all just sitting there. If we do use the NTMLE, the BAE is also there for plenty of guys. Come on Daryl, quit playing tennis and make some noise.
Basically no interesting players left at this point, aside for Green who's probably trying to get a deal with the Clippers...Rondae and Stanley were both guys i was hoping we could get for cheap but, eh...
Looks like another offseason where we come out of it with no depth. Morey has let so many options go by.
Shump S&T + pick for D Gallo? Then agree with J Simmons, Chandler, J Green Gritty team. Pau would also be a good option for backup center.
Clippers want to win now. To get Gallo it will cost you Capela or Gordon, assuming the Clippers bite. Gallo on offense is an awesome fit. The problem is on the other side of the court. So far the last couple years the Rockets have targeted guys that defend well. Eta: I forgot he is on the Thunder now. Maybe?
No chance of getting JMG unless they use the NT-MLE but is that a move that the Rockets would risk being hardcapped for? Probably not unless they're already S&T-ing Shump for someone. Wish they got Vonleh. For the minimum he's a steal. Don't know why they didn't pursue that. Wolves ended up getting Bell too and already have Dieng/KAT in the front court
