    He's undersized 6'2' pg and not as scrappy. He would be redundant in our system.

    It’s so bizarre.

    Stop talking trades, start appreciating what we have and enjoy the ride.

    Rockets do not like smallish guards that can definitely shoot. Rockets would rather employ Thicc boys that might be able to shoot but can definitely switch.

    Player x has a good game. “Rockets should have gotten player x, stoopid moray”

    Dumb, dumb, dumb.

    I’ll take Rivers in our system over curry.

    We need big guards who can defend on switches.

    It’s vital to our team.

    We’re elite and a contender when we play great defense not when we play crazy offense.

    We play elite offense all the time with who we got.

    Plus rivers is bigger and a better ball handler and obviously a much better defender.

    Curry can shoot all the Curry’s can shoot but Dell and Seth are one trick ponies, Their not Steph.

    I’m not even sure Seth would play over green just because of his size issues.

    Their both bad at D but green can atleast rebound the ball and contest shots with his height and jumping ability.

    Theirs a lot of guys that can shoot really good in the nba that don’t get much playing time.

    Melo and Ennis were options that frankly generated little interest around the league at the time, so I doubt we would have lost out on them had we knocked on Seth's door at midnight.

    Besides, the only wing we got on the market was a D-League player who turned out to be a gem in D. House. Seth could have been had cheap.

    Glad to have rivers over this guy. Better defender and calm under pressure.

    For cheap shooters would rather have bullock or Ellington than a curry.

    I think they should have signed MCW.

    Losing out on them would've been blessings in disguise. I'm just saying Morey wanted desperately to fill a vacant starting spot. It was obviously a ****-show, but effort had to be made, IMO.

    Dumber, Dumber. Seth Curry shoot 45% from 3 pointers whole season... just not one game.
