    Another iteration of the trade can involve re-signing Shumpert and Nene with bird rights to 1.2X their salary with the minimums to the Cavs. It roughly gets them out of the tax and they pick up expirings and draft capital.

    Can save TPE and Davis's contract to aggregate into another tradeable salary. Preferably a wing in the 10 million dollar range.

    Morey knows you have to swing for the fences if your owner doesn't have enough money to own a basketball team and desperately needs a winner. He swings for the fences like nobody else can - legend.

    Oh I sincerely hope the Rockets win it all next year. Harden is my favorite player of all time and i love every other player on the roster. But as a coach myself I absolutely can’t stand watching that guy play. He is the worst leader and teammate I’ve ever seen. No team will ever win a championship with him on it. I’m gonna root for the Rockets but there’s no way I’m rooting for Westbrook

    No offense, but not only do your basketball takes make no sense but whatever language you write in is very difficult to understand.

    Can you clean it up a bit?

    This is funny but come back to this post about 18 months from now. This might be more relevant than you think.

    (Although unlikely but I bet 100 buck to the tip jar now this will be one of those number 1 talked about NBA rumors that people never shut up about sooner than later)

    Rockets won’t blow leads anymore because Westbrook doesn’t take his foot off the gas!!!

    How does he feel that way about losing Westbrook while I feel that exact same way about getting Westbrook?

    I am not a Westbrook fan but I like this trade. We traded an aging CP3 who has 4 years and huge amount of money left on his contract and 2 first round picks. Not bad in my opinion. We still kept Capela, Gordon, and Tucker. Now if we can get a good back up center and another forward with some length, we should be really really good. A starting 5 of Harden, Westbrook, Gordon, Tucker, and Capela is pretty darn good. Having Capela, Gordon, Tucker keep us in the possibility of another trade if another signficiant player becomes available on the trade market. GO ROCKETS!!!

    Okay... THIS makes me feel better instantly!! Haha.

    If that Mavs fan also makes a video freaking out about this trade all will be well in the world.

    It's simply risk reward

    With running it back we were not going anywhere.

    With WB, we could either bottom out or we could reach the finals

    My guess is that this is our order:

    1. Kevin Love
    2. Aaron Gordon
    3. Robert Covington
    4. Serge Ibaka
    5. Marvin Williams
    6. Andre Iguodala

    Signing Rivers, House, Green, and adding Tyson Chandler
