hey, read what I just said! There's legs! Not that it's done. I have no idea but him liking that post and taking away the like is where I see the legs. If Harden is here and we don't use that exception or the full MLE I will admit I was wrong. I think we will use one or the other. I think it's the TPE for a SNT for Wood. I'm excited, let me have this. This is my Otto Porter Jr. 1.5 movement. (Myles Turner is my 2.0)
Third best....he clearly would be the third best Rocket to ever wear the uniform behind only Hakeem Olajuwon and James Harden!!!
If we get Wood it proves LTS is our star player. Who can top letting players leave for years at a time saving entire annual salaries ?
For me, the only way you can justify the Robert Covington trade is If you use the 12.8 TE on Wood, and then use the entire MLE 4/40. If you don’t do both of those things, you were cost cutting.
The MLE would have to be used to fill out the roster with multiple players. You are already hard capped so you have to get smart with who and what you add. Stone is the KING OF NUMBERS. HE's going to shine and Tilman is going to give him what Morey never got. Financial Freedom for one season. Tilman's ego is shot dead. He needs to save face. He loves Houston and is a laughing stock here now.
Me too. He's a prideful man and right now you can't watch a basketball show on ESPN without them joking about Tilman not spending.
Hope you're right too. Tilman's got too much ego though, but he is a Houston guy and tried to buy the team before Les bought it from Charlie Thomas so he's wanted this for a long time and was there rooting for our championship teams(tried to be part of the Texans ownership too iirc?). That ego could work toward helping Stone look like a better GM than Morey and his own image as i'm sure he doesn't want to be hated in his own city for ruining his favorite team. He's got a lot of work to do.
The way you guys are talking about Christian Wood makes it seem like we're about to get Anthony Davis, i hope you're right
Funny enough, I would call him a poor mans AD. Can stretch the floor, face up, pick and roll, good defender.
