[Chron] PJ and Rockets still talking extension. No deal close.

The blue cap means lying... So maybe he didn't get the extension offer. Or maybe it was "laughable, no lie". I need a gen z to help with the translation. Funny because PJ is older than me.

 

they didn’t offer him enough

 

If we ship out Harden, PLEASE get rid of Tucker as well. He has been praised so much, and he is a decent defender and corner 3 guy, but he is a freaking role player who overrates himself like crazy, and acts like he is some poor victim "only" making 8m/year at 36 years of age. His posturing for an extension has always been ridiculous.

 

Tucker sucks he is a get out of the way player on offense and a hustle guy on defense.

 

I am also tired of his constant pouting and then this social media stuff, guys close to 40 posting like they are teenage girls, I mean, GTFO.

 

I’m getting tired of it myself to be honest.

 

Yeah, Precious is going to need those minutes.

 

I'm tired of the entire Rockets organization..... I wish Les still owned this team

 

we will be known as an organization who doesn't know how to treat their players

 

I'm fine with being known as an organization that doesn't waste valuable cap space on washed up players, if much rather the organization prioritize winning. You don't win by throwing contract extensions at guys who will be 36 this year and already shouldn't be starting anymore.

 

I’m really disappointed in PJ. All the pouting he’s doing, it makes it a lot easier to not give him an extension.

 

If the Rockets are looking at Tyler Herro or the Ben Simmons of the world it makes no sense to keep Tucker . Just use him as a extra in the Harden trade

This is a better interpretation than I'd come up with.

PJ laughing at the new city edition jersey color; newborn baby boy blue.

 

Yup. People should just say what they mean, and say it with their chest.

Rocket general manager Rafael Stone and Tucker’s agent, Andre Buck of Arete Sports, met in person earlier this week in Houston to discuss a contract extension with talks continuing throughout the week, HoopsHype has learned.

Tucker, 35, is considered a lockdown defender who can guard all five positions and is one of the league’s top corner three-point shooters.

Multiple teams have expressed interest in trading for Tucker if he’s made available, league sources told HoopsHype.

If Tucker remains with Houston through the season, he is open to re-signing with the Rockets in the offseason.

 

Apparently Rockets offered 2 years, he should take it or just be traded. He's not that great to be pouting this much.

 

Why? For example, if the Heat traded us Tyler and Duncan, a Wall / Herro / Robinson / Tucker / Wood lineup seems pretty solid to me IMO.

 

I mean if they offered 2 years, $10m, it's fair that he turned it down lol.
