Crowder is expiring anyway and they have no intention of keeping him. We'd likely have to toss in a 2nd-rounder to make it happen. Or filler with more upside at the moment, like Clemons. Hey, if Morey can focus the country's spotlight on the Chinese government's idiocy, then he can do anything.
Crowder would be nice...just not seeing why Memphis would do that, Hartenstein and Clark aren’t what I’d call assets...but yeah, Morey gotta do something
I think Memphis can get two 2nds right now for Crowder, I very late single 2nd from Houston is likely is not even on their trade radar. Hart and Clark are likely not even worth a 2nd around the league at this point with neither showing enough yet. Plus Memphis's roster is already packed with players and their cuts are already going to be hard. For example Caboclo is on the roster bubble and I would rather have him than cut him for either Hart or Clark if I was Memphis.
Why is everyone still on Iggy ****? The guy doesn't want to be here & everything kept tieing back to him wanting to be w/ one of the LA teams & rockets is not even on the list. F*ck this guy.
If Iggy goes to Clippers.That defense gonna be too much for us. We would have to think of something to combat that like we did vs the warriors you almost hope he picks LAL at this point. In the playoffs lebron would be on harden. So late in the series it would come down to iggys/ Bradley’s defense on Westbrook. Harden would do solid on Lebron but one late game situation I’d be scared.
We’ve had some intense battles against iggy and the warriors. I don’t blame him for not wanting to join the rockets.
I do kinda blame the league though for hating on our Nene contract structure. Our advantage was taking on the salary and him likely starting. In a level playing field the Lakers make the most sense IMO for him because of playing time for him.
I won't believe that he will leave much money on the table until I see it with my own eyes. Expecting to get bought out at this point, seems more like wishful thinking by LA fans.
Yes he did. I’ve been thinking about it from that angle as well. Screw us on the Nene front we screw the league with this China stuff.
Iggy who? That name became irrelevant to me once we signed Sefolosha And for all of you saying (The Clippers Defense is gonna shut down the Rockets)...... You are crazy if you think the Clippers or Any team is gonna shut down the Rockets They might play them tough but shut them down? NEVER.....
Oh, he's not turning down $18M. This is his last payday. Much of that payment is due up front in the season. He will wait until he has most of it and sacrifice very little to get a later buyout. In the meantime he will relax and train away from the grind. All of this is posturing. Like Portions for part of last year, he wants no part of them and they don't want him around either.
