    you think? lol. But seriously I think they should just hold onto him if they can’t get better than a 2nd rounder in return.

    At this point he is a much worse version of Carmelo Anthony minus Syracuse/Kiyan Anthony.....lol.....coming off the bench me?

    Hoodie is missing.

    All those stories come out once he leaves the Rockets .....he is not breaking the law but there are skeletons in the closet.

    At least he is no John Big Mouth Wall.

    Tari Eason’s place in the rotation isn’t in jeopardy. He’s one of their key bench players who can start in a pinch. The only way he gets traded is if he’s part of a deal for Giannis.

    The Rockets are trying to build an insane perimeter defense on par with what the Thunder had this season. Eason is a big part of those plans.

    He’s naturally a 2 guard, he also has the physicals to be a great defender. He just needs some more coaching and NBA experience. I hope the rockets don’t give up on him so soon.

    I don't know about Natural but I doubt it is that easy, feels like Udoka and him are at odds but PR machines kept it under wraps.

    Well, I am glad I am just a minor supporter and not in charge of anything.

    His attitude and all that (whether prince or pariah) are moot at this point. There's no room for Cam in the rotation. I don't want to lose him, and I think it's selling very low on a guy who has a good chance of being a sub-elite scorer, with upside to be greater than that. But he'll never play enough for them to get good value for him. I think he's worth a lotto-protected 1st, but the vibes I'm getting are more like 2 second-rounders. Caveat, I'm not great at getting NBA trade wind vibes.

    Yeah, he is in the exact same place on the depth chart.

    Durant replaces Green
    Finney-Smith replaces Brooks
    Capela replaces Landale

    2 upgrades in Durant and Capela and one lateral move in Finney-Smith.

    Except those are vastly different players and better players, but they are not going to play that many games.

    The Iron man status flies out of the window.

    what if we're gearing for a trade with the bulls for Coby White?

    I think we were always going into the season with 14. I guess this is our team. Pretty damn good offseason. A little light in the backcourt.

    Sengun/Adams/Capela
    Bari/DFS/Jeff Green
    Durant/Tari/Tate/Cam
    Amen/Holiday
    Fred/Reed

    The Victory Cigar position is not essential on an NBA roster.

    I think we will see some form of load management or injury between Fred, KD, and Tari that will give him minutes.

    Send him down to the G League until an injury happens, rinse and repeat until the All Star break...

    Let him compete, and if we rest KD on B2Bs and give him off days (Which we damned well should) then he picks up minutes there.
