    Do cash considerations come in $123 increments?

    Because maybe it’s a jazz player involved like Dante Exum

    Rather get Wes Iwundu from ORL than Holiday.

    Like Satoransky, he is 6'7 and can play 1-3 but better defender with over 7 ft wingspan (Satoransky has 6'8 winspan but better 3 point averages).

    Jazz are in talks with Grizz on Conley for Rubio and due to a huge gap between their salaries it’s obvious we are the potential third team, so this guy could know things

    I've mentioned TB a few times, actually to many.. He wants out. The Lockeroom knows. Sh. Mack :)))))

    I'm feeling good this time around. Morey knows he has to makes changes for James' window.

    Ennis has grown on me based on his energy, but he's expendable. Easy contract.

    Picks will fly, EGO's injury bug(s) are scaring some away, but we have some good assets.

    Again, don't underestimate the big move. Boston. Wash. Memphis and my freebirds below

    Love ya Smoothie.

    Wouldn't us, Orlando and Memphis (and really any GM) all rather have Iwundu? He's trending up and on an amazing contract with excellent physical profile. Even if he were slightly less of a player than Holiday, you take him because he's a club option next season and restricted after that (essentially years of team control on his contract). All this at a 2nd round pick's salary of 1.3m this season and 1.6m next.

    Knight is useless to us and makes almost the exact amount as Ariza. We were mentioned as possibly throwing in a first to get rid of him, maybe the Wiz do us a solid and take the bait! Ariza can still be useful in our rotation, especially in our rotating defense...

    Get’r done Moories!!!

    Iwundu is on great contract but he has just recently gotten more playing time with Jonathon Simmons getting nicked up.

    He would have been a throw in pick earlier in season.

    Beal would be the ultimate. He's one of my favorite non-Rockets

    Yes and:

    1) We would not be as sure he could be useful; and,
    2) Why would Orlando dump a super cheap contract of a young player with this physical profile before he's had a chance to prove anything?

    It's like us giving up Clark for a late first right now. Why would anyone give up a pick and why would we give up already? I feel like players in that range would only be sweeteners for must-have players and unfortunately we don't have any must-have players or picks.

    I like Burke but he's definitely not a 1-2-3. He is a shooter but small even for PG. If he is the move, then Rockets need a couple of other moves in addition hopefully.

    And finally, with Wall injured but WAS still fighting for playoffs, why get rid of a need player like Burke?

    Lotsa love Codman!!

    Iwundu would have to be a sweetener in 3 or 4 team trade.

    WAS gets: EGo, Skal, Hartenstein, Rights to Llull, 2 HOU FRP

    ORL gets: Wall, Shump, Chriss, Ennis, Clark

    SAC gets: Knight, VE, Nene, HOU FRP, ORL SRP, HOU SRP

    HOU gets: AG, Ross, WCS, Iwundu, Rights to Justin Jackson
