    Would do it in a second. In fact, if we could have traded a crappy frp to get of Westbrook would have done that to.

    Unloading Wall's contract won't immediately make us good, though. The only reason you'd free up cap space is to sign players you perceive to be good. Unless we can immediately contend with whomever we sign with the money we have from unloading Wall's contract, I see no reason to trade an asset like a high FRP.

    I'd rather use that pick to draft someone (call him Player A), and then have them develop until Wall's contract comes off the books. Sure, this mean we'd be tanking until Wall's contract ends, but by that point (2-3 years in), Player A will have played a couple of seasons, we'll have cap money to sign players and players would probably be willing to come to Houston to play.

    Maybe Oladipo can sing to Drake as he runs up and down the court?

    Showcase game for Oladipo?

    Rockets up by 18 at the half and Mutumbo goes into the locker room and slaps each starter in the face then gives an all time great tank speech. The Rockets come out of the tunnel and go on a 0 to 33 point slump for an inspiring loss to the coach less Raptors.
