    i'm pretty sure that if we wanted Jeff Green, we could have had Jeff Green. He's just not very good. I'm not saying MCW is good. I'm just saying that Jeff Green is not good.

    Jeff Green for the minimum would've been better and he actually filled a need

    There's the list of free agents I could imagine the Rockets still being interested in.

    Kevon Looney for the minimum to be our new backup center would be cool with me.

    Green is by far a much better player than MCW.

    1) Codman uses "looks" twice at the beginning. Meaning, it seems like the Rockets' are sitting idle. Then, Codman counters the misconception with "Morey isn't sleeping". Essentially, the Rockets have something brewing in the background.

    2) Phoenix/Mil/Atl/Sac will all take on money (he alluded to these teams being willing to take on $20m— Ryno— in a previous sig).

    3) Wiggins and Butler both had "bird" mascots (Wiggins a Jayhawk and... wait for it... Butler a FREE BIRD with the Marquette Golden Eagles)

    4) Reiterates the ball in motion with "we're not stagnant"

    5) The robbery/supporting cast who "have a lot to prove" refers to us being willing to gut a lot of our depth to have a starting unit able to compete with the superteams that are being made. Then we will be banking on unproven, forgotten (MCW) talent that will have to prove something.

    6) The B in "Be ReLaXed" is just naturally capitalized, but if you take the other interesting characters (R, L, X, 0), you can draw two common Codman targets— Robin Lopez and X0, Kevin Love.

    7) Pop taking "many seats" could refer to trading Kawhi for a ton of people (more seats on bench). However, when Codman mentions "You messed up... again", this could be referring to either fleecing a team for Kawhi being a negative thing, or the opposite— being unwilling to trade Kawhi and not getting anything in return/lose trade value.

    I tried to defend MCW but goodness he makes it hard. At least he's lengthy and can defend... 23% 3 pt shooter, 26 years old, probably too old to really develop from such a basement... I mean maybe the Rockets see something in his shot that can be tweaked, Blake Griffin became a volume 3pt shooter at age 28 afterall. But I do trust the organization more than myself to analyze players.
