    would you rather spend it on Tyler Johnson, who can shoot and has upside on the defensive end or use it to shore up EVEN MORE shooters like Jamal Crawford who's still hanging out there but up there in age and down there in defensive abilities. There's also Kirk Hinrich.......eh

    We complained all last season about how hard it was for us to hit wide open 3s, when/if we bring guys in like them who can shoot but play average to sub par D we're basically getting what we asked for. So before you complain I'd look within.... Not WITHOUT! Lol

    I've wanted Crawford for a long time

    I'd give him the max to to see him ball off the bench

    It should be pretty obvious the rockets have a huge hole at C. That's where the money is going

    Eric Gordon is Houston's 6th man. Bringing Crawford doesn't really make any sense

    We need a vet center. Capela isn't quite ready and DMo's back is still a big concern.

    Not much of a bigger picture. Bringing Crawford here would be redundant. There's only 1 basketball

    Wait we only have 10mils left, so only chance DMo isnt leaving is if nobody offers him more than 5mil?

    I think we are fine with Capela and the big rookie from Louisville....it is time we rolled with some youth.

    Johnson is a shooter.

    I'd spend it on Johnson.

    There's no center worth that type of money left, probably why we're exploring the trade market ala Nikola Vucevic.

    I'd take Crawford or even Barbosa, the Warriors have proved you can never have to much shooting/scoring off the bench even with one ball to share. That's when team management comes into play... Mr. Pringles...

    Rockets can go over the cap to sign him.

    Beverley/ undrafted rookie

    This seriously isn't our PG rotation next year is it?

    What are we doing about that?

    Are they planning on Gordon to play PG?

    Any value in being able to maintain the ability to absorb a guy mid-season? If not, sounds like money MDA gives to a Barbosa type.

    Bev is the backup.
    Harden is full time PG, move Gordon to the 2.
