    There is no other choice. Morey has been unable to move Ryno, and he is rightly reluctant to move the rest of the role players.

    Another elite team gobbles up a role player for free while we just sit there with 990 year old NeNe and Goat Cheese as backup to Clint.

    DARYL DO SOMETHING!

    Man that’s just what we needed! If Morey brings in another guy then that must mean Arizas minutes will be reduced hopefully!

    Yeah but I also think there Are a lot of fake “insiders” hell if you throw enough **** at the wall some will stick. And a broken clock is right twice a day.

    I could have told you that Morey was doing whatever he could to get rid of Ryno at the deadline but that doesn’t make me an insider it just means i have common sense.

    His D can't be any worse than Ryan Anderson.

    One of our forgotten weaknesses was rebounding last year. Can he rebound and blockout? The lobs fit right in, but this needs to really be about rebounding to support Capela and Nene in the event of an emergency.

    Wright is as good a player as you can realistically hope to find as Capela insurance. He can do pretty much everythng Clint can do, just not as well.

    We will still need Nene's physicality for some matchups

    We have been through those before but ch44, cyberx, Codman, and previously DocRocket are not fake insiders. Everyone should know that by now and not just blindly post that they are fake as we have seen in a lot of threads. This is the path to losing insiders as we have been fantastic at doing in the past. Other people hear things at times and we have seen a ton of fake insiders but not the named ones here that have all been confirmed by Clutch. If they are legit they get confirmed or they stop posting. Cod's always been great in giving the lay of the land from his perspective similar to how cyberx does from his side. They are not wrong. There are a lot of things discussed and deals take multiple calls and time to make them work. We have seen multiple closed deals fall apart so I am not at all surprised when we hear about a ton of deals that died at the finish line.

    Yeah, but you didn't and if you did we all know who has the skins to back it up.

    Comparing yourself to Codman, ch44, cyberx, etc. is embarrassing. We all trust Clutch, or at least we should, and he vouched for them. He dud not vouch for you.

    Common sense cuts both ways.

    God bless you cod, keep fighting the good fight, most of us have your back buddy!!!

    I wonder if Tarik Black heard about the Brandon Wright deal before or during the game. Tarik was the most active we’ve seen him.

    I usually don't like to read too much into stuff like that, but he must know he's on the hot seat. He doesn't make a ton of money, he's not as young as Zhou Qi or Onaku (who were drafted by us, meaning that we've already invested something in them); the next guy we sign is either going to take Williams or his spot. And with Williams potentially being a trade asset for the offseason because of his positional fit (we could probably flip him for a second rounder in the draft), you have to think Black is starting to feel the need to look good.

    Dude knows Rockets will be all over media in the post season, knows with his injury prone past this is his moment to show the world and other teams why they need to give a contract to his 30 year old body this summer.

    He is going to be amazing for us.

    We are always weak when Capela goes down and we don't have that lob play in our playbook anymore. This allows us to stay with our same play system if Capela gets injured.

    @Codman is more than legit. He has more inside info than me, just different sources. Don't stress out about explaining yourself to the doubters. People are skeptical by nature, but the smart ones figure out that nothing is 100% until it happens. Thanks for everything you share. I learn a lot from you.
