    That was my first thought as well. Wall is gone.

    I was genuinely surprised when we guaranteed him because I was expecting him to be waived (with a mutual agreement with him wanting to go elsewhere). But I just assumed maybe he really liked playing with Wall.

    This is fine if a team takes him into a TPE. Gives us the cap space to bring back Gerald!


    I do NOT like us wanting to go "small" with Wood back, that is horse ****. We need a legit C who can reliably play 25 mins a night even when Wood is healthy.

    Gordon will ruin the tank my guy. As much as I love EG and Tuck(if you are not going to pay him his deserved money) than they have to go to.

    Rockets making it clear to the league they are ready to part ways with their vets. I wonder if this makes any difference on teams calling us or not

    Would be fantastic to get Wall out of here. If Stone found a sucker to take on that contract, it would be glorious.

    I did not see this coming. But good luck, Boogie. I wasn't a big believer in giving you minutes, but I'm not a hater. I hope you find success on a winning team.

    Unless Washington wants him back, there is nowhere for him to go.

    Rockets have the cap space to bring back the mayor. They cleared out quite a bit of money with the Harden trade and we are under the hard cap apron by quite a bit.

    he already did that each of the last two years.

    you’d think he wants playing time.

    Allen saved the Rox more than 30M in payroll on top of getting them a FRP.

    Unless you got a jedi mindtrick to convince billionaires to not care about their money just stop beating the dead horse.

    How do you think our self proclaimed franchise player is feeling about this??

    Boogie here was fine when maybe Harden was going to stay but made no sense once we got rid of Harden. I was never a big fan after watching him play a few games and watching him suck finishing at the rim so bad.

    Hoping a trade is incoming for a big or this move doesn't make much sense...
