    It won't take Cam. We would be getting massively ripped off, Remember Rob Williams has only played like 40 games in the last 3 years.

    I thought the athletes got better, it felt Vandy Gundy had lots of Andre Robersons on his team.

    Watch his Clippers now, they are a much better Offensive team.

    Yeha but gundey is the defense guy on the clippers. He still had Yao + Tmac and rockets couldn’t score

    Cod - The Mavs are idiotic for their trade. Let's not pay a generational talent and trade for a big man who's often injured or falls down when the ghost of Nate Robinson breathes on him. Ugh...Kyrie is never going to be happy...he doesn't have the psychological wavelength to be content.

    We will likely stay put except for some small adjustments and picks, but:

    ***Just from some good "ears" not named Rich Paul (eeeww :) )

    As I prepare for bed...A free bird soundboard continues to blossom. \. But, ears are rumbling with the free bird package that has echoed for years: Malcolm in the Middle with a coinflip of the Supersarr and Big Science has been in the background. Ime loves Malc' and the Temple of Doom from his days in the east, and we've been looking for some support for Alphi for awhile.

    And, if it comes down to it Feb 4th will show you a potential switch that Christopher Wallace's hometown won't be too sad about. I love Cam and Cam and Cam. Flip 2 coins in a sharp Day?

    Lastly, whispers of Pat at (not our Pat Pat) wanting out along with Dougie Fresh and Mr. Carter. (Early-to-late Deadline ears) And, Lordy Lauri...sending SOS for awhile.

    *But again, the 313 keeps calling. The Lebron-killer is not my cup of tea, but there are some good pieces for depth.

    Depth? Timberrrr ...the shingles are falling off like a conman roofer. Speaking of falling...Stone hates trading w/in conference, but watch out for free birds in the Valley: MM and Mr. DNP because Draymond 'Rick James" him into Sarver's purgatory.

    That's plenty until my spinal tap tomorrow. I can't sleep, so I'm grateful to pass the anxiety with what a few shared with me.

    Wish you well. Call on our friends and family--You'll never know when their timeframe doesn't match your expectation.

    Love and light.

    I wouldn't say the #1 reason, but he's up there.

    The reason the Rockets look bad without him is because they only have 1 PG on this team. It's the same reason they suck with Sengun, because he is one of a kind player. Meanwhile all other players have some redundancy on the roster built in, so their injuries don't look as detrimental. This doesn't mean the Rockets need FVV so much as they need a PG on the floor at any given time. At least until hopefully Amen/Reed can eventually take on that role.

    Yep, the importance of a player is relative to how competent his backup is.

    He hasn't even turned 21 yet. I'm not sure we have any idea what his outcome will be.

    Van Gundy had a lot of slow defenders with no offense, but that was by his own design.

    I swear one year when T-Mac and Yao were injured, he rolled with a rotation of Clarence Weatherspoon, Rick Brunson, Keith Bogans, Ryan Bowen, and Dikembe Mutombo, with Charlie Ward and Charles Oakley coming in too. Brutal to watch.

    He was sucking like everybody else up until he got hurt. FVV being the main reason we are winning is ridiculous. Now that he is off the ball more, he is a valuable player again. Mostly because we have no guards that come off the bench that are even worthy to be in the rotation of a winning team, much less starting. If we keep FVV after this year, he should be that worthy guard coming off the bench. Sengun not being available was way more impactful than FVV getting hurt.

    Malcom Brogdon, Alex Sarr(?), Big Science = Lauri

    “And, if it comes down to it Feb 4th will show you a potential switch that Christopher Wallace's hometown won't be too sad about. I love Cam and Cam and Cam. Flip 2 coins in a sharp Day?”

    Cam Thomas, Cam Johnson, Dayron Sharpe

    “Lastly, whispers of Pat at (not our Pat Pat) wanting out along with Dougie Fresh and Mr. Carter. (Early-to-late Deadline ears) And, Lordy Lauri...sending SOS for awhile.”

    Patrick Williams?, Doug McD, Jevon Carter, Lauri (again)

    “*But again, the 313 keeps calling. The Lebron-killer is not my cup of tea, but there are some good pieces for depth.”

    Isaiah Stewart, Pistons players

    “Depth? Timberrrr ...the shingles are falling off like a conman roofer. Speaking of falling...Stone hates trading w/in conference, but watch out for free birds in the Valley: MM and Mr. DNP because Draymond 'Rick James" him into Sarver's purgatory.”

    Monte Morris, Nurkic

    Thoughts or any ones that I am completely wrong on?

    Sure, you're right that the range of possible outcomes are much higher for a 20 year old. It's just my personal opinion that those are the two most likely outcomes on the way I'm forecasting his future. I could be way wrong.
