    Yea, why didn’t we just do that?

    It’s weird that the clippers expected players of value when trading away Chris Paul.

    You know the Rockets tried to not include him in the deal for CP3, right? There is even a Morey quote floating around about how he really hated to lose Harrell. It had zero to do with his fit and everything to do with getting a top 10 player. Quit making stuff up.

    D'Antoni did develop Amare. He also developed Capela. And right now he's giving significant minutes to an undrafted rookie. D'Antoni has zero problem developing young players if they can contribute to a winning culture. And Montrezl was totally getting time before he was traded. I really don't know what you're talking about.

    Carl Herrera would have done: Out of L-ville @DreamShook

    I mean, that also means Houston, right?

    This guy is impacting the game again tonight in the first. I don’t agree but I can see why SAS said what he said. The announcers been praising him and his energy since he checked in.

    Someone correct me if I’m wrong but he had to be included to make the money work as well. So we couldn’t have thrown picks instead.

    Unless a player plays in New York or Los Angeles, to SAS they don't exist. But once they do play in one of those 2 places (in other words someplace he pays attention) suddenly they are a revelation or "the closest thing to Dennis Rodman in the NBA".

    That's right. Morey said immediately after the trade that he was very bummed to have to thrown Trez into the deal. The Clippers didn't ask for him, Morey HAD to put him in the deal for the numbers work.

    Rockets had the right idea when drafting him. Just not the patience.

    Montrezl Harrell is more like the closest thing to Carl Landry in the NBA.

    Harrell's good and he got a lot better, but you can't play him over Capela, and you can't play him at the 4 so it doesn't matter. Sure he would have been a nice big to get 15-20 minutes a game but the fact remains that he's still backing up Marcin Gortat on the Clippers and we've got Capela.

    Can't fault him for everything but he is the GM and there is nobody else who seems to take responsibility.

    Tad Brown? After that Calm the f down, never heard from him again.

    They wouldn't need him to replace Capela. But Hartenstein........

    This applies to baseball and football as well.

    It’s the big market curve.
