    Doesn't make much sense trading Brewer in roster construction point of view either. Rockets are not going (or able) to keep both TJ and DMo the coming summer. It makes sense to trade for Morris considering his capability and bargain $8M salary when every team has millions in the pocket next summer.

    On the other hand, Rockets need Brewer at the 2/3 for the depth.

    They've got about $1.6 million in room above what they trade out.

    Weird that this rumor comes out now considering Brewer isn't tradeable for over another month.

    It would be hard to make a trade right now, I'm trying to think of way it would be possible

    Perhaps something like

    Leuer for Shved TPE
    Then
    KJ, Jones, Dekker and Harrell for Morris + pick

    We'd have 13 players and it would work financially even with the hard cap (once KJ becomes tradeable dec 15th)

    Beverley / Lawson
    Harden / Thornton / Terry
    Ariza / Brewer
    Morris / Motie / Leuer
    Howard / Capela

    Or we wait until Brewer becomes tradeable, or we don't trade for him.

    I was all for Ryan Anderson this last offseason but his game against us was very unimpressive. Soft on defense, flopping, and taking fadaway shots when the Pelicans should've gotten it into Davis. I guess he would be a solid back up PF.

    I thought since we where hard capped we had to match dollar for dollar?

    It will be the 15th. All unrestricted free agents who signed over the summer will be available to be traded on the 15th including KJ, Thornton, Terry, PatBev, and Brewer.
