My Clutchfans has been glitching for weeks now.....I see I'm not the only one. Many are getting posts duplicated often. Some bugs have crawled into this site lately. _____________ So you say stay the course, BPA, don't swing for the fences. Business as usual. I say, don't expect the Rockets to keep the #4 and probably the #20 pick; packaged with it. Stone doesn't need more young players in diapers. He needs to trade the assets he has accumulated, and flip them for vets that can contribute right now. 41 wins and the "Play-In" gets Stone kicked to the curb. I say, he ain't going out like that. Holding more kids hands will get him fired this year. We'll see who is right in about a month
#4,#20, Christopher+KPJ+KMJ+2024 Nets pick unprotected to Toronto Siakam+Tate to Portland Nurkic+#3+Anuoby to Houston. Draft Henderson Sengun Smith Anuoby/Eason Green Harden/Henderson
Toronto seems to want to go younger and rebuild the right way, essentially what the Rockets should be doing. Toronto is a top 3 NBA front office, I would be paying attention to what they are looking at instead of helping them.
It almost seems like Masai is trying to bully Stone into making a deal through the media. There isn't a single player on the Raptors roster that excites me enough to give up the #4 pick. If he wants to give us Siakam, I'm willing to talk about Tate, KJ, #20, and BKN picks. Anything outside of that is a non-starter for me.
Narrowing it down, it is either the Nets or the Raptors because they are likely more committed to a full rebuild than the Celtics at this point. If Scoot is taken, Amen Thompson could be picked at 3rd in the scenario by Brooklyn or Toronto.
Top 3 NBA office my ass. The guy literally gave up a first round pick for Poetl, only to get smacked in the playin and get a shitty pick. Now they either lose all their players to FA, or overpay them to treadmill at 9 th seed
Siakam can't sign an extension with us (or anyone else) even if he wanted to, so they can have a bag of peanuts and a Diet Coke. Otherwise we should just wait until he hits free agency if we want him.
I would not include Sengun in a trade package for Siakam. But the reality is with Masai who is notorious for overvaluing his players, you'd have to send one of those three and the Rockets if they aren't incompetent would so no which means it just ain't going to happen.
Yes. If the choice is that or Amen, then ya Barnes is who id rather have. Barnes isn't a good floor spacer but he doesn't have the potential to be Ben Simmons level poor floor spacer like Amen.
Neither can OG. I wish guys would stop throwing them out as good trade options for the Rockets. Why give up assets for guys that are going to hit FA next year, regardless of who they play for this year.
And Stone specifically mentioned that he will not trade Rocket players for players that are going to be free agents next year.
It's pretty simple. If the Rockets trade for Siakam, it's clear Tilman & Stone are never to be taken seriously.
