    These NBA comparisons are laughable. In what world does Keels compare to Desmond Bane?

    He can dry his tears with $9.5M/yr for 3 years.

    And then sign with Houston in free agency

    lol. And of course Ryan is scared again thanks to Woj



    *EDIT* ... he edited the tweet. Orginally said they had traded cash and pick for Ryan Hollins. :)

    KPJ and Jalen were the two guys he wanted to play with I don't blame him, its interesting to see how this turns out for the magic, and Jabari tweets seem like he is coping with the fact he is a houston rocket, well I hope this humbled him should had came in for a work out.

    Stone is working his magic. There are many facets to being a GM. His drafting is on point. I would like to see how he consolidates some players, though.

    I do think that this means Gordon might stay and someone like KMJ moves along. And I am fine with that. I thought we might have to part with Gordon to get Eason. So, to still have Gordon to mentor these young guys means that KMJ will be on the move. Looks like it worked out great for everyone.

    I'm starting to wonder if Stone has pics from the wild GM parties? Because he was just gifted a perfect draft.

    I never seen a team do what they did to Jabari they hype him up for a month, finally bring him in for a work out they posted his interview online, talk about how much he killed his work out, how everyone likes him , brought all the young core guys to his work out etc etc... Like why would you create this big smokescreen when you are the team with the #1 pick? and Jabari was the only guy they had showed everything about, we didn't see chet's interview or work out like we did Jabari's.

    He had his mind set on Rox, he already got the franchise treatment from Stone and everything. But he can't be mad at Houston for not picking him, at worst both him and Jabari at mad at Orl for messing it up.

    He’s got a Forever Humble tattoo he repeats to himself like a mantra, and said God never makes mistakes after he was picked, so I’m giving him good odds at figuring it all out lol

    His shot is great; he's absolutely money from midrange and has an elite floater
