    Houston is in a great position.

    Tons of cap space, no bad contracts, tons of young talent that will improve and tons of assets in general.

    Plus lower cost of living and the lower taxes.....also just not having to live in Massachusetts.

    Most importantly though, he'd come in as unquestionably THE GUY.

    There's plenty of reasons why he'd want to, but can we make it happen?

    He probably doesn't, Bill Simmons just likes to throw sh** at the wall and see what draws clicks

    He literally can't let it go though. Someone insulted his prophet. We're lucky he's not yet threatening violence...I guess we have that to look forward to as he becomes more unhinged as the off-season goes on.

    Climate wise, I think there are a lot of NBA players that would enjoy living in Houston more than the northeast, especially in the winter months.

    Maybe. I hate Houston's climate, would much prefer Massachusetts in that regard, even though winters in New England get a bit depressing. MA is just a better quality-of-life place in general. Better scenery, better infrastructure, better cities, more stuff to do in the northeast. And cost of living isn't a big deal when you're earnings tens of millions a year. (Income tax is, though, TBF.)

    That’s really bad stuff. A lot of us are parents on here too, which makes it even more cringe. **** was straight defamation of character

    LOFL coming from someone who called an autistic person the R word just because he was told he was grossly inaccurate about comments he made regarding the autism community. You are the biggest POS on this board. You **** on a special needs person because you were losing an internet argument.

    Do yourself a favor and STFU when it comes to telling other people how to post.

    I'm not saying get rid of Green but I think adding a guy like Brown would also help Green grow and score 25 pts per game. Gotta find a PG though.
