Wall is not an off ball player, that's why this trade is so F'ing baffling. Trading a HOFer, ill fit granted, for a 3rd team All Star with a history of flat tires. And he will not be 100% this season, for sure not playing on back to backs. WTF!!!!
Yeah I know. Morey was still the architect of one of the worst trades in Rockets history. Morey didn't have to give up everything when he knew Russ was the inferior player. Feels like Morey threw a tantrum along with all of Rockets picks.
certainly part of it. But Russ being shoved into the corner on offense because he literally couldn’t do anything to help us is why we went 1-4 in the series. Also House.
What about the cocaine rumors? Tbh, I hope he's turned his life around and glad to hear of the things he has changed. Hopefully he fits and we do well. I'd love to be shocked.
Not trying to, and you were in the minority. And I STILL believe it could have worked out under new leadership and a different system, but now we'll never know. Regardless, I'll take Wall over CP3 any day of the week, too bad it took a messy season/divorce to get us here however.
Westbrook doesn't care about winning. Westbrook is about the Westbrook brand. That's what he's playing so hard for. His stats and his money.
There was a choice, DONT TRADE HIM. Wait till the deadline, or keep him and let him lose money, not this crap.
with the rockets luck, westbrook will have a good season. him and beal make it to the playoffs, while wall is a disaster (like westbrook last year) and the media clowns the rockets.
Unless the "casual" culture was neither MDA nor Morey and is Tilman Fertitta or worse .. Raf-el Stone Remember the guy that Harden and Russ complained about not having input before he was promoted to GM?
WB wants to be “the man” again. Right? I’m sure Bradley Beal, who at worst is twice the player WB is, is totally ready to lose games and watch Russ pad stats.
