    Well, the thread that called people "Harden Nutsack Huggers" was just too good to pass up.

    Clutchfans really wants us to trade for every white player in the league. Never seen soo much excitement over 2 bonefide scrubs..

    Dudes name is a girls name.. he's probably soft and that's why he's always injured.

    Didn’t Morey almost trade Chris Paul for this guy and lots of picks? He has so much potential but he keeps getting injured

    just looked it up and was shocked to know aaron gordon and wood are exactly the same age (25).. if we win the coin flip to get a top pick this year, maybe AG wouldn’t be a bad idea

    Did you not get the memo? We are trying to lose, not win. Lock this guy up!

    If you ever wondered what a team would look like if fans were GM for a year .... Just imagine if a fan bought the team.

    Keep posting Mdoggnic and ignore the complainers. This is a good post and a relevant one as this guy may be a Rocket by the end of the day.

    7 foot tall athletic 23 year old PF who can shoot. The only thing not to like is the contract situation and injury concerns. This guy would be my first choice easily if you knew you could keep him.

    Agree to disagree.

    Would root for him if he becomes a Rocket.

    Until his lack of defense drives me nuts. :D

    As for who I'd rather pay ...

    Markkanen and Wood on defense would be horrific. They would get pushed around way too easily. Front court offense would probably be elite though.
