Have you considered what we would have had to give up to trade for him? After he opted in to his contract, a trade is the only way we could have acquired him. No, not a playoff team at all.
i know im just saying... but i'd trade kevin porter jr right now without hesitation. ive wanted him gone long before his legal troubles.
A backup shooting guard that's taller than 5'11" VanVleet and Holiday.......oh yeah, and he can shoot 3's. Need a KPj replacement. PG is covered by VanVleet.....Amen / Holiday SF is covered by Dillon...........Jabari / Tari / Whitmore But SG just became thinner.
Free agent swingman Lamar Stevens has drawn interest from several teams, including the Celtics, Timberwolves, Rockets and Heat, HoopsHype has learned. The Celtics signed Svi Mykhailiuk to a one-year deal, as HoopsHype reported. Boston has 14 players with either a fully or partially guaranteed contract and one roster spot open. Minnesota also has an open roster spot. Following Kevin Porter Jr.’s arrest for allegedly assaulting his girlfriend, former WNBA player Kysre Gondrezick, his NBA future in peril, as ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski noted. The Rockets are a team to keep an eye on with one roster spot open, pending what happens next with Porter Jr. Miami continues to be in a holding pattern amid Damian Lillard trade talks while eying potential rotation depth should a deal come to fruition.
Possibly, rooks tend to flame out as they hit the rookie wall at 30 games....then get a second wind around game 65. I was thinking vet waived from another team might be more consistent. Whitmore missed like the first 9 games of the college season as a freshman and then contributed as a bench player. So his role might be the same. I'm expecting a terrible season before the KPj incident, now I'm expecting worse. Rockets are the most disliked franchise outside of Rocket-nation and Sengun-goons.... and we sign the most hated player (Dillon B) in the game. That's doubling down on stupidity or relishing in on the villain role, just sew a patch that says "kick me" on the back of our jerseys.
Sometimes you have to embrace whats been bestowed upon you. HC was kicked out of Boston, Dillion Brooks was kicked out of Memphis, now KPJ....Sometimes in Sports its better to be hated, than loved. HOUSTON ROCKETS, THE NEW BAD BOYS? Also, the Astros!
It's one thing to be an A-hole and win; but it's another thing to be an A-hole and lose. Nobody likes A-Hole losers
“They [the Knicks] own the rights to four future first-round picks and have all of their own first-rounders moving forward”, Begley writes. “They have players signed to reasonable contracts. Can they put together the best combination of players and picks? No. Oklahoma City and Houston can easily top any New York offer.” Any Antetokounmpo deal doesn’t appear plausible until 2024 at the earliest, so his current view of other teams is far from binding. But from the perspective of the Rockets, if they want to get in the sweepstakes, the best thing they can do is make a leap forward on the court next season. From there, that could make it clear to a star such as Antetokounmpo (or Joel Embiid) that Houston — with its burgeoning young core and, now, a proven head coach in Ime Udoka and accomplished veterans in Fred VanVleet and Dillon Brooks — is a place where they could win big in the mid-to-late 2020s.
Heild would be a great 6th man for the Rockets. Expiring contract, instant offense. KPJ, Tate, and what to get him?
