There is little reason now to replace William Howard's two-way roster spot. Two-way players are still ineligible to play in the playoffs unless...
Is William Howard for sure not with the team? I thought his “deal” overseas was for NEXT season.
Daryl is always looking for good ideas from anywhere he can get them. That’s part of what makes him a great GM. Have I ever offered him advice?...
Wait, Bleacher Report picked up my JOKE tweet as serious "news"??? :D
Yes, he is. At least as far as I know.
I wonder if they went with someone they could get under slot so they could give Santos above slot money.
1. 5 LeBrons 2. 5 Jordans 3. 5 Pippens
Had they claimed him off waivers (which they could have done using a TPE), the Rockets would only owe Bolden the prorated remainder of his salary,...
FWIW, Jonah Bolden has cleared waivers and is now a free agent.
Prorated, but it prorates differently. The MLE is currently around $1.35M. It’ll be around $1.15M by March 1.
The vet minimum prorates downwards immediately at the start of the regular season. It is only about $622k and constantly getting smaller,...
No. They lost the Non-Taxpayer MLE for good this season when they signed the Nene contract.
Yep. Again, regardless of what the league ruled, this is essentially two separate trades from the Rockets' perspective: Trade 1: Capela/Nene...

I don't think Atlanta and Denver have "touched" in this overall reported trade, which leads me to believe this is actually two separate trades:...
Haha! No, I was in my office at home. Just bad sound quality. Sorry about that.
One possible trade scenario based on that Hawks rumor: Clint Capela for John Collins Jabari Parker Traveon Graham Rockets would then likely...
If the Rockets trade Nene (and cash) for no salary in return, they should be far enough below the tax to sign a buyout guy to a prorated vet...
What do you mean, FINALLY??? I've been saying this for several months. While I'm not nearly as negative as you (and many others) are about...
The Rockets currently have five Traded Player Exceptions (TPEs), none larger than $3.6M. They CANNOT be combined with player salary or other TPEs...
