    Bro, it was a ****ing good guess! Lol.

    I really don't follow that page, but I guess this trade definitely gave it some credibility.

    Pretty good for both teams. V's ability to stay off the training table and on the court will be a huge thing. #10...Grizz likely score big time with that.

    Brother do you ever sleep? Would love to bring Ricky's son in for the right price and see what he could do. Definitely add some of that D we're looking for, if he can stay healthy.

    I may be wrong but I dont know that Winslow really fits what the Rockets do on offense. There might be better fits for him in other systems.

    Probably not ideal but could sign him to 1 year reasonable deal and trade him midseason? I assume other teams that are better fits will offer him a little more than the Rockets plan to but Rockets should definitely consider giving a JJ Reddick/Trevor Ariza type of 1 year offer to somebody that contenders covet with the understanding that they will most likely be traded midseason. We could potentially do this with Kelly Olynyk.

    D Rock once slept and we drafted Mirsad Turkcan. He has not slept ever since.

    He’s plagued by very poor shot selection, which can be troublesome for a guy on a young team with a rookie coach

    That being said he still has potential, he’s definitely a 2 way player with athleticism and would fit here very well in that regard

    He needs to be limited to 3 and paint shots on offense, passing is also one of his better attributes, he could potentially play a Jae Sean role here

    Mirsad Turkcan? The evil Doogie Howser MD?

    "I was talking to Mirsad Turkcan," Jeff Van Gundy said. "He said to me, 'You got no 3.' I said, 'What?' He said, 'You got no 3.' " (Referring to the Knicks' having no legitimate starting small forward.)
    "What about Larry Johnson?" Van Gundy asked Turkcan.
    "He 4," Turkcan replied in halting English.
    "What about Latrell Sprewell?" Van Gundy asked.
    "He 2." Turkcan then pointed to himself and announced, "Me 3."
    Van Gundy said, "You 3, me fired."

    An oldie but a goodie. JVG despised European players. Hated them like persistent plantar fascitis.

    Rockets: Not only do the Rockets want to move up to grab the top pick for Cade Cunningham, but they could also move up from their 23rd and 24th picks in the draft. How far the Rockets want to move up remains a bit of a mystery, and there’s always the chance they’ll attach one (likely) or both (less likely) of those picks in order to get off the Eric Gordon contract. But the Rockets would love to grab as much top talent in this draft, and while value might be there at No. 23 and No. 24, the better value remains in the top 20.

    EG/23/24 for 13 sounds nice. Carlisle can make use of EG 100%, and that last year is a TO.

    Find a way to get Sengun the Mobley squasher.

    That has only a slight chance of working if you change Turner to salary filler. Indy can get more for Turner

    If they turned down Kuzma and 22 for 13 they sure won’t accept EG and 23/24 for 13

    Lamb/Holiday for the fillers...

    No thanks to Myles...I will however take the 54th pick that Indiana has.
