let's go!!

 

Let's just not trade him!!

 

Someone has to go to create a roster spot.

 

Have no problem with the trade only can help the team, but I don't like that we constantly take parts from Knicks, Nets, and Kings.

Read this story on Terrence Williams last week, shouldn't need a random 13 yr old to straighten your life, hope he gets his act together and steps his game up.......

Let's get our 2012 pick back!!

 

this trade will haunt us for years to come. i hope im wrong

 

Same here.

 

I've only been gone for 5 hours and missed 2 trades(possible).

 

wow...hahaha...soon the sac team is going to be all ex rockets..haha

 

It was a protected 2nd round pick. It has so small possibility that Rockets can get it.

 

not really it's like exchanging 2nd rounders and taking a chance, doesnt matter really

 

Rockets paying cash to dump JT. 2nd round pick purely hypothetical since its top 55 protected.

 

we messed up...

JT is going to pan out while Chase is fizzling out.

 

Good luck JT, sometimes a change of scenario is better for everyone.

He will be starting for them very, very soon.

 

somehow i knew the only reason jt got playing time recently was b/c he was gonna get traded....im not a big fan of this but hey im not the gm

 

I do feel a bit bad after seeing him on the bench tonight. He seemed down, but without sulking, and he still high-fived his teammates and gave a very warm, friendly hug to PatPat toward the end of the game. Trading someone who isn't hated by the entire city is a bummer but, as they say, it's part of the business.

 

Yes, but assuming that Taylor would have been waived otherwise to make room for Williams, you should look at it as Les getting PAID to waive Taylor, since he will save more in luxury tax and salary than he is paying in cash to Sacramento.

 

But he is taking on more salary in Williams and his $2 million......so it is costing him money.
