    I don't care, Anderson is finally off this damn team. It's a great day in Houston. Please remember... this guy was sitting on the bench during critical playoff games. Both Knight and Chriss can be used as back-ups.

    Got insurance for CP3 and bench depth if EGO starts. We'll see if Chriss has anything, otherwise he has a smaller contract that can be easily shipped out if needed to package with someone else. Got rid of Ryno. Not bad.

    not tripping over losing Melton...dude was the 46th pick in the draft...if he becomes even just a decent role player than he’ll have overcome the odds

    never seen so much hype for a low 2nd round pick that has yet to play a single NBA game

    Out of nowhere!

    Very meh return, hopefully we flip these dudes again for a wing.

    Chrisss does seem to have some defensive potential, just don't know if he would be better than Joe Chee

    Ppl crying about a 2nd round pick. Morey finds those anyday.

    Good deal. Knight is clearly the stud of this deal. Chriss gives us length. Rebounding and athleticism we need once thick or Capela go out.

    Is there any way we can re-work this trade so that it also ends Sergio Llul's life ? (I kid, I kid)

    Yo, yall think Ariza did us the ultimate solid and talked Ryno up to the Phoenix brass?

    I'd bet he did.
