    Look it is unlikely, but Stone is doing the right thing by trying.

    After sleeping on it, I'm pretty sure Tilman is playing 100D chess with Silver. Pretty much leaking that he is looking for a trade to force Silver's hand to void KPJs contract.

    It's all good guys we are good.

    No he is not doing the right thing.

    I get it, you guys see him as an expiring asset to help some team get under whatever cap they need to get under. This is a PR nightmare though. At this point the entire league would want to distance themselves from this criminal. Not sure why anyone would want to even trade for the man, even if it meant getting a non protected pick. It's just not good business.

    I believe this to be true.

    Tracy McGrady begged to get out of Houston early and the Knicks stepped up
    and it's obvious agents pulled strings and the Knicks took the bad deal.....
    knowing that these agents would pay them back in negotiations somewhere
    down the line. You scratch my back I'll scratch yours later stuff.

    VanVleet and KlutchSports took Stone to town and bent him over.
    I'm guessing Stone was buying favors from KlutchSports
    somewhere down the line.

    If it was for LeBron to join Bronny on the Rockets, well cardiac arrest
    of Bronny probably ended the wish.

    Maybe somebody owes Stone a favor; but as of right now, Stone looks
    completely inept to me. Ripe for the picking by some team to take
    advantage of him.

    This rant is not directed at you @ElPigto, just in general.......commence RANT !

    Look, I am tired of this BULLSHIT about a PR NIGHTMARE....there is NO ****ING SUCH THING......people move on.....where is the PR NIGHTMARE about Lucas, and Wiggins and Lloyd doing cocaine and ****ING a championship up? Oh right, it doesn't exist.

    How is Indiana doing now that Artest went into the stands to beat up a fan - oh right? No more nightmare.....

    People are reacting emotionally TODAY and in 4 months - they won't give TWO ****ING ***** that this happened.

    If they did.....we would have GUN CONTROLS TO STOP OUR ****ING CHILDREN BEING SHOT IN SCHOOLS !!!!!

    Get with the program PEOPLE - there is NO PR NIGHTMARE that is permanent......that just doesn't exist.

    KPJ almost murdered this woman. Not sure what caused him to release her neck, but for me it does not seem like a good situation. Appears like a PR nightmare in my opinion.

    Well yeah, today, in 3 months when the season starts, won't matter to anyone not associated with the trial etc.....won't have a lasting effect on the Rockets or season ticket sales, or the current roster.

    No such thing as a PR Nightmare that lasts.....they just don't exist.....people just move on........

    Or, we wouldn't be looking at a Facist like Trump and some people trying to elect him if they would take a good long look at Hitler and how he came to power.......lots of similarities, but people don't...they are too busy they move on...."Not my problem" etc.....and we get **** ups as elected officials....yeah....

    I hope this is true. I know that statement from the league said they cant make statements or punish him but if they are allowed to trade him why cant they waive him? It seems unlikely to allow a team to trade someone but not waive them.

    There's no PR issues with this situation because he won't be on the team. The PR issues occur with a situation like bridgers, where he's a good player and the team wants to keep him. KPJ will never play for the rockets, so there's no PR issues for the rockets or whoever waives him, unless some team tries to have him eventually play for them (lol).

    Maybe you should stay in the shallow end....and away from the dangerous waters of the deep end.....

    Now STFU and get me a juice box !!!

    I present you with facts and the only thing you can do is try to attack my age I guess? lol its pathetic and funny lmao. Whenever I wonder if something is the right thing to do I just look at what you suggest and do the opposite. If Stone had done that this idiot wife beater KPJ wouldnt still be on the team. Maybe cool it on the advice for awhile lol You have the moral compass of a w**** in church.

    I don't know. My initial reaction is that we for sure aren't ready to compete for anything past a play-in spot (10th maybe 9th seed in the west), so why sacrifice a future pick (potentially a first-rounder) just to get rid of KPJ's salary? I think the better option would be to just waive KPJ and treat his guaranteed salary this year as a sunk cost. Use the available minutes to further develop Amen and Cam.
