    Who has power of the Rockets roster, it ain't the GM, it is Udoka. Before coach hiring, Harden flirtation and 0 interest in D.Brooks. After hiring, no longer interested in Harden and more intereted in Marcus Smart-type player.

    Likely means Memphis takes no player back and can use the offset $$$ from Brooks’ deal on other free agents without counting against the cap.

    i can't imagine there's ANY chance all 4 years are gar., question will be if it's 2 or 3, hopefully just 2 (ideally hopefully 0.....but...)

    means we're giving our cap space to the Grizzlies in the trade market

    I bet anything that one of these guys we just threw away (Christopher, Garuba, TyTy, KMJ) will end up having a better career than Brooks.

    Anytime you can pay $210M for “culture setters”, you jump at the opportunity and don’t look back.

    I mean these moves really reek of Fertita being tired of all the rich guys making fun of him in the rich guy spaces and him demanding the Rockets win more games at all costs. Ok great. Here's 8 more wins a year for you at the cost of seeing if your young players have anything. Udoka just wants to keep his job. All coaches are going to push for more vets.

    Maybe we are trading Alpha Kaba to the Grizzlies for nice guy Dillon.

    I don’t really care about dumping our trash for next to nothing. I’m ok with the FVV signing now that it is only 2 years guaranteed. We will see on Brooks. He is a good defensive role player, but 20m seems like way too much, but it is hard to gauge when guys like Bane are getting 4 years/ 40m
