    I'm guessing they'd each have to get a 3rd team involved.

    Would be an outstanding rotation player for a team with poor bench depth and enough offensive talent to absorb him. He also has an outstanding flexible contract.

    He does a lot of things well, it's just that what he doesn't do is pretty noticeable on a team like ours that can struggle to put the ball in the basket at times.

    Probably so, I don’t see anything on their rosters that we‘d be interested in besides the stars of course.

    Would Stone be willing to take a chance on Bol Bol? I’ve heard he has some work ethic issues but he’s a big that can stretch the floor, he could play alongside Alpi.

    Woj: Rockets have at least one lottery pick lined up for Jae’Sean Tate
    Kelechi: Rockets may listen but he’ll be tough to get as the Rockets see Tate as part of their core.

    Yeah I was looking at Bol Bol, but I figure he'd have to be more of a "sweetner" if the Rockets are trying to make a move that gives them reliable rotation players.

    But I wouldn't mind taking a flyer on Bol Bol to see if Ime can get anything out of him.

    Celtics have a Trade Exception Tate could easily fit under.

    I love the way Stone has taken a page from the Morey playbook about using the press to get infaux out.

    Tate is an underappreciated role player. I'm not surprised people are asking about him. He makes less than Jock Landale and is about 100 times more versatile. I'm not against moving him at all, but I'd be fine if we kept him too.

    I don't dislike Tate. But I won't really be sad to see him leave. I would wish him well.

    Not about cap space, but rather the players/assets they'd be sending back.
