    I was repeatedly told on CF that his massive expiring contract would be an asset. I guess they were wrong and I was right.

    There's more but you get the point.

    Wall was not a part of any era related to Rockets.

    Unless you count the Tank era, which is still far from done.

    I don't know about that, I think the tank era is basically done.

    Should solidify us being the youngest roster in the league regardless of PT.

    Hopefully should be our last truly awful season record wise for a long time.

    Sign Harty to 3 year $20.475 million deal with $6.5 million guaranteed......nice trade. Wall for Harty.

    The Rockets have added a ton of young talent and have already parted ways with Wood and Wall, and free agency hasn't even started yet. I'd say it's been a hell of an offseason so far. There's still too many players and not enough roster spots to go around, and I think we'd all like to see Gordon with a new team soon, but if this is the roster they go into next season with, I'm going to feel pretty good about it.

    Knowing Tillman, he won't though, this is still a rebuilding team and will be under .500 next year, most likely. The play in tournament is what we should be aiming for. Mo Bamba will cost too much and just take away PT from others that need it. A year from now is when the money will be spent to make a real push, our cap space will be insane in 2023.
