    And what does that mean. You mean udoka wasn’t a laughing stock when he got dumped by Boston for his behavior. Oh the saint chose to come to the rockets. LOL idiot

    the fact that you just tried to use that as some Crutch shows how much of a moron you are

    As usual the Rockets are a day late and a dollar short.

    Should have been done a month ago

    Y’all acting like we’re trying to keep him. Who cares if we’re trying to get something back. It’s smart

    You clearly don’t understand what’s going on. They’re willing to use assets to get rid of him. That’s embarrassingly absurd. Smart lol. It’s 100% stupid

    Who cares? Folks that understand how to use assets the right way. Clearly not you

    Why are people mad that the Rockets are exploring how to get away from Porter while extracting value from him?

    Cause you don’t use valuable assets just to get a rid of a player that should be dumped outright. But then again cf‘s is used to thinking this is the way with how transactions go under the worst owner in the league

    Use assets ? We’re trying to get something back for him. Just him. Maybe someone will bite. Doesn’t hurt to try.

    You obviously didn’t read. It clearly says along with draft compensation. Not for. There’s a drastic difference between the two

    Stone signed him a year earlier than necessary. He could’ve let him test the market this offseason as a restricted free agent. Because of the KPJ money guaranteed this year Stone had to get rid of TyTy and Usman for nothing. You even said yourself we don’t need KPJ, so you should agree that extending him was a dumb move made by Stone.

    Shams said they're trying to get someone who can help team in exchange. Not expecting anything to happen.

    So we are OFFERING picks for someone to take him ? Am I reading this correct ?

    Is he expiring? That's the only way we should expect anything back... late 2nd rounder at best

    I swear Stone and the Rox think they are the smartest people in the room but they are anything but.

    This "value" is equivalent to "SELLING YOUR SOUL TO THE DEVIL!". Fire Stone, the entire FO, and fack Tilman for allowing this disgusting business culture. And never complain about the players and their bad culture when your FO has an even more disgusting culture.

    Yeah. I'm guessing the deal is more like a future 2nd round pick for the return of some washed up veteran that might not ever play but could be good presence on the team. I doubt a team falls for it but then again the Texans were able to trade Watson.

    I don't think KPJ is as good as Watson was though but who knows Sometimes other teams do dumber things that benefit your own team.

    I don’t see how this is a problem. A team could be willing to get out of a contract a year or two early by picking up KPJ.

    KPJ and a pick for Duncan Robinson. The Pick could be used in the Lillard trade plus it gets Robinsons salary off the books for the next 2 seasons for Miami.

    Lol the new team would be well advised to distance themselves from Porter for the next years. Dude is toxic felon.

    I only see the Hornets as a place that does not care .....a tanking team.
