I mean he’s good but no definitely not worth an unprotected pick for a team tied with the 2nd worst record & tanking. And he’s about 8+ years older than their core + getting paid 25 mill.
if the Rockets can get Poole or Looney from the Warriors along with Glenn Robinson in this trade, I will be extremely happy.
Not my favorite trade, Crowder is overrated IMO. Why not Iggy instead? http://www.espn.com/nba/tradeMachine?tradeId=srj6z57
Bring Caboclo HOME! I still believe! Speaking of brazilians, I think you can take Lucas Nogueira from the Euro league or wherever he went and plug him in the Capela role in small spurts. Hes a big dude who can PnR, Rebound and finish -Oops. None of these is he amazing at, but you know what he is amazing at? Being 7 foot tall.
Iggy is taking this year off before he heads back to GSW on a minimum deal. Then he will retire there.
Rockets have two TPE's large enough to absorb his contract .... dumping Nene in a separate deal likely gets them just under the tax.

Rockets had offered a 1st for Luke Kennard, but the Suns outmatched them. Unprotected 1st from the Suns was much more valuable.
If CC is going to be traded, then I like the idea of something like CC + fillers for Bamba and Clarke. I would add a second if needed. Bamba Clarke Tucker WB Harden It has a lot of youth, which is good but might not be great for a team trying to win it all.
