Yes, reminds me of that time rockets were in the same boat. Young undrafted rookie makes big splash, looks like rotation player and gets multi...

Did this really need a new thread with our opinion? This has been hashed over to death in like, 5 other threads. The argument about luxury tax as...
I'm sure we'll be very competitive in the buyout market when we ask guys to wait until the end of the season. And when we do get them, not having...
The league is dead if Lakers or Knicks swoop him up.
My only creative solution is if Rockets sign Shumpert to a large one year deal, like $20M to create an instant expiring that can be packaged with...
Good point...another reason I was leery of his purchasing the Rockets. There's a big difference between a "billionaire" and a billionaire.
To WIN. Rockets could have improved roster even more if they were willing to pay LT. Nothing is guaranteed, but Rockets had opportunity to make...
uh...he's cheap. Per Forbes, Rockets had an EBITDA of $103 million last year, fourth highest in the league. Which means he could have afforded to...
Baldwin to indy (check!) Stauskas to indy (check!) Nene....
This clinches it: I have tickets to the Rockets-Mavs game coming up. I plan on rooting for "luxury tax savings" and drinking beer before going to...

Don't get me wrong, playoff bench depth definitely helps, my point is that I don't think it helps this team enough. As for Tucker, he's been a PF...
Because it's not my money, I'd hope for a trade that is something like Knight + Criss for Dieng + Saric. In other words, Saric is used as...
Right now, when everyone is healthy, the best lineup the rockets can throw out there is Paul Harden Gordon Tucker Capela Unless Rockets can...
Well sure, you trade players until you get it done, but its a matter of degree right? The roster around Harden has been overturned several times...
This would pose an existential crisis for me if I were a Toronto fan. That would mean a starting lineup of presumably Conley, Green, Kawhi,...
Ideally? The Rockets get a player for four first round picks and Knight/Criss and maybe Gordon too. They were willing to "up the risk profile" and...
Just like, to play devil's advocate for a moment: Let's say this happens. You have a lineup of roughly: CP3/Rivers Gordon/Green Tucker/House...
