    6ers fans LOVE Maxey and for good reason, he's flashed all-star potential in a few games and is 20 years old.

    He is the reason I prefer the Simmons deal over the Nets one.

    Simmons is at least an all-star caliber player and if we get some good years out of him maybe we can lure the next disgruntled star here.

    Simmons and Wall don't fit, sure, but what can you do?

    I prefer Jaylen Brown over any deal but I prefer Simmons deal over Herro/Heat because I think Maxey can turn out to be a true steal.

    Because other teams are probably offering way less since Harden doesn't want to be there.

    no, I want it to be wrong.

    I DM'd someone the trade so they can confirm if it comes true but it's heavy on picks and a player on an expiring deal.

    Yes, that would be good. Curry would be our best 3 point shooter immediately.

    You people still defending Harden are missing the point.

    On news for the next game: "Rockets might be a tad shorthanded on Thursday. John Wall is out with left knee soreness, Eric Gordon is questionable with lower leg tightness and James Harden is ..."

    Nobody on the remaining roster want to be in that first game without Harden. The scrutiny and a possible blow out.

    It's been a good ride boys, we're gonna see more defeats than wins. The question now is will we be a bottom team or maybe claw into mid tier.

    Tell us who the team is so we can hope it'll be wrong too.

    acquire Simmons then ship him out with Gordon and a pick to the Pacers for Sabonis. Why the Pacers do it? The hell do I know. I just want Sabonis on this team

    Sabonis
    Wood
    ?
    Maxey
    John Wall

    Wrong. We dont need shooters. We need assets. This season is done.
    If Stone is prioritizing fit over value, he should be fired.

    Gonna guess Indy (Oladipo)

    Tilman has probably instructed Stone to ask for the moon from Morey, hence them looking for more picks, to make sure that they don't come out looking like Morey robbed them

    If Rockets are going to tank this year, they better do a damn good job at it to land a top 4 pick, otherwise, all the effort will be wasted.

    Any good prospects this year fam? I don't follow college sports.
