    ...if you can resign him sure, but i wouldn't expect that, and the Clippers are not helping us.

    None of them are worth a first-round pick, but Detroit would just keep Wood if all they can get is a second-round pick in return.

    I would like to see the Rockets fit both Morris and Nerlens Noel into their TPEs, personally. Give up a few second-round picks if need be.

    I'll take O'Quinn, hope that those reports of him as a backup plan were true

    I wouldn't do it, BUT considering that the Rockets have been trading their 1st round picks for LTS multiple times the past few seasons... Wood or Kief doesn't seem that bad lol.

    So be it then, Wood isn't worth a 1st rounder, let alone if it's the last one we have, he's not a game changer for us anyway.

    Noel (especially imo) and Morris are at least more proven, and for 2nd round pick it would make way more sense.

    Bought out???

    TT already said he isn't getting bought out and multiple reporters have said the buyout this year is going to be extremely weak.

    Is BraBra better insider than Lowe?

    Eh, i get what you're saying, but there has to be a limit you don't cross, otherwise you literally turn into the Knicks, Kings etc.

    I feel like this happens every year. Endless rumors of a deadline deal ultimately leading to nothing

    I wouldn’t give up a first-round pick for Wood, either. I would only consider it for Morris and Wood if I got a very high second-round pick for my very low first-round pick. However, 2022 is three drafts away, and who knows how good the Rockets will be by that point.
