    The keys to our Western Conference Finals formula. Should have at least kept the fake Josh Smith to keep the spirit of Josh Smith alive.

    Disgraceful post. How dare you forget the REAL key to our success last season.

    Josh was treated like a asset & shouldve been kept. I think Morey foolishly thought Jones would step up but Jones sucks. DMo is recovering but still not as talented as Smith

    We could definitely use Josh's defense at the 4.

    No need for Prigs at all with Lawson here

    We offered Josh more than the Clippers did.

    Jeez.

    Did JSmith and Howard have a falling out?

    I'm sure if Smith wanted to be here, he would still be here. So either he really had some beef with management/coaching or Howard and left. As much as this forum hates him, I would've liked to have kept him.

    DMo is better than Josh.

    We were killing it before we got Josh. And Pablo was only here for the tail end of the season.

    Curry just scored 28 in 3rd against Pelicans. 4th quarter remaining.

    He had a more defined role with the Clippers. He's the #1 backup bigman

    That's not what he should have been here? Or is TJones a better, less expensive (in the long run) option as Josh?

    And just offering $ is not everything to ppl. He probably did not feel appreciated.

    Well he would have to compete against Capela too.

    Not sure what he was thinking or what the Rockets told him

    Josh wouldn't have been afraid to take those 3s. Should've just kept him and started him.

    Hindsight is 20/20, only 2 games so far and the guys barely practiced, come on.

    Josh Smith was hot and cold. But when he was hot, he could carry the team when Harden couldn't get going. Reference Game 5 vs. Clips. Now we have become more dependent on Harden. And DMo is still rehabbing.
