    Some of these "veterans" y'all are suggesting are literally on their rookie contracts lol

    KPJ would legit attempt murder on Amen if he was starting. KPJ is a better player than him and I don’t think he would handle that well lol. I don’t know that it would even make sense starting him either. You would need an older vet PG to back him up.

    I would get KPJ the heck out of here if we draft any player we're expecting to be the point guard of the future. Don't want KPJ teaching them bad habits, and if the rookie starts playing well (or if it's Scoot who should start right away) you know KPJ won't tolerate getting benched. Just dodge that bullet and move him along to his next team preemptively. Better for everyone.

    Adding Brooks n Hart would definitely bring some junkyard dog toughness to add with Tate(if not moved) and with Eason/Bari

    Rockets are getting a top two pick so it will be either Hendy or Wemby

    I would keep TyTy/Garuba, its a long season and having young depth who can come in and contribute is always good to keep around, unless Rockets feel like Grady is the ultimate floor space sniper then you may be on to something with that trade

    He could be a good backup behind Green if KPJ goes
