Kawhi was 3rd in MVP voting, best player on a 61 win team, and an obvious top 5 player in the NBA the year before he was traded. Kawhi wasn't just...
Yeah you'd basically need Jaylen to publicly commit himself to Houston or for Jaylen's agency to be running our front office, like AD with the...
It's fun and interesting to talk about trading for Jaylen -- how he'd fit, what's the right trade value, does he fit our timeline etc. But by a...
Agree with you on taking the swing with Amen. On Jalen and Jabari, I’m not talking about my personal view, or the Rockets’ view. I’m talking...
Do you watch other teams than the Rockets? Patrick Williams is not good, at all. A purely theoretical player. He looks like he should be good at...
You think we’re putting a full rookie extension max in front of Jalen or Sengun next summer, no negotiation? Only guys who got them the last 2...
That’s not really a deadline. If neither one is an obvious max guy (and at this point it doesn’t look like they will be) you can wait until the...
You would only trade for Jaylen if you’ve talked to his camp and are extremely confident he wants to be in Houston long term. If you are...
If you think Scottie Barnes is still obviously better than the 4th pick in this draft you haven’t been paying attention to the Raptors this year....
In terms of market value (not my own evaluation of these players’ abilities), the #4 pick is likely our most valuable asset right now. If another...
Found Kelly Iko’s burner
Siakam will not sign an extension. He can’t sign anything for 6 months after being traded. He can make $40M more on his next contract if he...
Some useful info regarding trades for players with 1 year remaining on their contract (e.g., Siakam, OG, Jaylen, Dejounte, DeRozan, Paul George):...
Yeah, agree some version of this is the obvious and correct path. - Harden at something less than the max with an out at 3 years or less - A...
OK, let me correct myself. If you have a crystal ball that can tell the future so you know which draft picks will work out and which won’t, you...
You said it yourself, OG is a very good role player. He’s not a top 12 small forward in the league. In value terms, you simply cannot trade the...
You've described a big part of the problem with any team acquiring Siakam. If you give out an asset to get him, you must sign him to an extension....
I don’t think any of these rankings are perfect at all, but they are at least objective third party views of top 100 NBA players ESPN 22-23 Top...
You brought up the Chris Paul comparison, not me. Want a different comparison? A very good but non top 10 player on a difficult to extend...
Nah. Chris Paul is actually a great example proving the opposite. Chris Paul could actually be extended (Anunoby and Dejounte can’t). Chris Paul...
