    It will be his own team after Wall and Sengun are traded for Dame

    That looks like a veiled shot at me.

    That's ok, I can take it, I'm a big boy.

    I would do it just to get Wall & House off the team but would probably flip Ben for expiring contracts and like 2 1st

    Wouldn’t care about getting the best deal, just clear up the roster

    If it happens, my money is on something akin to Simmons and Harris for Wood, Wall, and maybe Gordon. Not saying I’d approve of this trade, but it’s the only design I can think of that wouldn’t involve a ton of picks.

    Why? The article says Houston is one of nine interested teams.

    He isn't coming here, nor should he. Not newsworthy

    Not particularly interested but Green's development would benefit more from playing with Simmons as a primary ball-handler than leaving those duties up to KPJ

    Exactly - one word mention in a very long article. That headline makes it seem there is some recent momentum or buzz. But one of 9 teams mentioned in the past as a footnote of the article?

    C'mon, that's just clickbait and you know it.

    So I’m guessing the question is….

    Would we be ok with a wood for Simmons swap??
