    That’s probably close. Tomball Jimmy’s intensity is an elite skill that would best be harnessed on the Rockets

    It doesn't mean that we are NOT getting Butler either tho. Which is an improvement on where people thought we were going into last weekend.

    Alright, if we have other sources saying it was really dramatic, I dont know what eles to say. Not defending WOJ but calling this sensational when its reported by others to have been really bad is kinda harsh no?

    Jimmy Butler can guard durant and get his on the other end. He's been doing it. Hes a star. Eric Gordon and PJ are not. Not sure if you watched Jimmy Butler play before.

    Butler is an all star and a two way player. He’s also 29, which can extend the rockets championship window longer if cp3 loses a step.

    Fans always overrate their own players, just like when most of clutchfans thought we gave up too much trading guys like Melton, lamb, Lou Williams, Beverly, Harrell.

    Tucker is a 33 year old role player. I’m confident that he can be replaced with the guys currently on the roster, if not through a trade at the deadline.

    Hollywood Jimmy isn't happy how his injury was handled (there is a scoop for you) and dude is going to be dealt to where he wants to play.... even if it means ruining his trade value.

    The problem as I see it is PJ is Hardens BFF and the club will always try and keep Harden as happy as they can. I think there's a way they get this done without PJ. We want PJ and Jimmy Buckets playing together.

    This again. No most of cf's did not think hou gave up too much. This is 100% false. That's been proven already. and once again name a viable replacement. this has been brought up before and you obviously still havent been able to come up with an answer

    @Nook Yea but thats in game, sure he can be an intense guy but whats being reported is down right crazy. Theres no way hed be downright disrespectful to people every practice like that, I just do not believe it.

    sounds exciting for an October for you...no?:)

    regarding your quote above, I guess my question was: So, did Morey "package picks" yet, in an offer, and get rejected? Now that Minny is calling us, I assume something has been rejected.

    It's helpful for us fans to speculate Up from rejected offers, vs take leaps all the way to the Final Offer. I assume EGo+picks was offered and rejected, per your tweets today.

    thx for the posts today and yesterday!!
