    The FVV deal was a massive overpay for a mid tier player, something I could eventually come around on. This is just picking up an awful player with a terrible attitude. A guy who comes in and immediately is one of the worst offensive players on the roster....but who will demand he get 16+ shots a game.

    Let's get the "Fire Udoka" thread started.

    Pretty sure Whitmore is a long term project, Eason can back up the 3 and 4, and KMJ is likely gone this off-season based on all the rumors. I definitely think we have the minutes. KPJ is the big question mark as to how the franchise feels about him and what his role will be. I'm assuming a 6th man role, but can he mentally handle that after the franchise made him feel as if he was the franchise player (head honcho).

    Unless this is some kinda three team deal where we get Brooks AND Capela, this is stupid.

    Just sign the dude outright.

    The Rockets are, yet again, the laughing stock of the league.

    Well maybe ime can turn him to like a Marcus smart, just remember Smart wasn't what he was with brad Stevens as he was udoka, brooks is 2nd all NBA defensive player, maybe he turns better to be all NBA first team defense, marus smart shooting sucks until udoka Ben Sullivan maybe they get Dillon brooks better

    This is my issue with Brooks. I would like him on this team otherwise, even if overpaid. My problem is how he feels he deserves a bigger role offensively when he is not an efficient player.
