    The league will force the players to play if the sit out is negatively affecting the on court entertainment product. This won't be a problem. No one's tuning in to see John Wall.

    I don't disagree from my perspective but it depends how they value the players they would get...

    Fits our youth movement better than Brad Miller.

    This will be me if we go from Harden for Simmons to Wall for Simmons from Morey no matter what the peripherals of the deal:

    I bet it will.

    I watched an entire season of Juwan Howard as our best player.

    You obviously don't have your stripes, so pipe down little chicken.

    Damn, Morey really loves trading for $40 million 30+ year-old injury prone point guards.

    Strongly doubt this happens before training camp (if at all)

    You tube has a guy speaking on the matter claiming Evan may be associated with the Cavs
    in some manner.

    Possibly knows about talks as the Sixers and Rockets may be looking
    for a third team like the Cavs

    My first thought was how this info could have been "put out" there to entice the Clippers to make a move.

    Putting aside whether getting Simmons would be a good move (although moving Wall would be outstanding, depending on what it cost), it looks like if this went through, the Rockets would be OZ Central - Simmons, presumably Matisse Thybulle to make the money work, and Dante Exum. Heck, I might be forgetting someone.

    John Wall being traded to the Clippers is more likely.

    The Rockets need to clear salary and acquire picks.

    Marcus Morris has the most value to acquire picks
    Eric Bledsoe
    Luke Kennard
    Serge Ibaka injured right now
