    Every time I go out of town the Rockets make a trade. I literally had just checked into my hotel room here in Cancun when I got the notification.

    I was in Cozumel when we got Harden

    I was in Dallas for work when we acquired Westbrook.

    Nebraska for sister in laws graduation when we dealt for Chris Paul

    Oklahoma for work for Covington.

    Next time there’s rumors of someone we really want I’m buying a plane ticket.

    Yep! Guy has potential. I think he will be great coming off the bench for us!

    I'm confused. You are adamant on keeping Tucker...but are against getting a 20 year old with possible high upside during a rebuilding process?

    John Lucas could be a real asset to Porter turning things around.

    I could see Kpj, Tate, and Christian Wood annoying teams in the near future.

    Wish all the best to the young man, your past doesn’t need to determine your future. Listen to the coaches and work hard on being a great player, but more importantly a better man.

    Oh yeah, adding a certified nutcase with another borderline one in Boogie on the team.

    We might suck but our entertainment potential just went up.

    Tilman better be careful.

    This is a kind of guy that might go Latrell Spreewell on his neck someday if he is having a bad day.

    I'm really not. There is value for their org to show goodwill to players on the way out.

    This is how you take on a project and not with the 16th pick in the draft a la Royce White

    Or just don't want to deal with him. They have first hand account on good (and bad) he is. They're like 'we're good'. No less than a week of the lockeroom, foos incident, they gave him up for nothing. It's the equivalent of the Cavs firing a player.

    Rockets is getting a 6'4" guy for free basically. The risk is there as you'd hate for TMZ sports breaking news::::: Rockets player KPJ is (fill in the blank).

    I don't mind folks being optimistic, but if you're one of those super excited, then you're not allowed a future [I've grown to hate KPJ thread]. :p

    Im not adamant anymore. I hope to either extend him or trade him to a contender. Tucker doesnt fit with whatever(i have no idea) Silas is trying to do.But he would be a good mentor for the young guys and a good....ugh tank commander. Im not against getting this guy, but Im not ecstatic about it. I hope it works out.
