    Imagine drawing the line at cutting Boban…

    I guess if the game is really close and we're in danger of winning, coach can call for the Nix-WCS PnR. That'll solve it.

    Fernando and WCS are basically playing at league minimum or close. I don't see the problem with with this move, Rockets are just honoring their word. I think Boban is too valuable to cut.

    Garuba's days are numbered.

    People are really getting worked up about these fringe vets that can't make the rotation of a team that had the worst record 2 years in a row.

    The Rockets are prioritizing assets with value. That means young players with upside, cheap role players, and useful contracts. Anyone else doesn't really matter much.

    They'll cut Nix before moving on from Garuba.

    Don't care if they cut Boban or not but WCS is a waste of time.

    I want the Rockets to sign WCauleyStein so that @DaDakota can become a scoopster.

    Then 10 years from now when he's arguing the Rockets should trade Jalen Green for Chance Dorkowitz he can say "yeah remember when i called the WCS deal -> therefore I'm right"

    He's a bit lazy at times. The opposite of Tari Eason who is full throttle every minute of the game.

    All our days are numbered, but Garuba is not going anywhere unless it’s in a substantial trade, not for a pick.

    No one is trading anything of substance for Garuba at this point. I think he's got another year before the Rockets give up on him, but the clock is ticking.

    I don’t know, but I wish he’d turn up again.
