    If he's healthy there's no way he makes the minimum next year.

    I think Morey can replace all three in buyout market. Why would Tilman spend so much money (market value) on these guys? that is my question.

    Didnt seem to help Kyrie as much, given his flat earth nonsense.

    Basically, we traded Carmelo and Joe Chee for Faried and Rivers.

    Within a month's time we will have Capela back along with Paul tonight. So now you have Rivers and Gordon coming off the bench.

    C Capela
    PF Faried
    SF Tucker
    SG Harden
    PG Paul

    PG Rivers
    SF Ennis
    C Nene
    SG Green

    I'll take that over having Ariza and Anderson from last year

    Glad he likes it here, but he needs to start hitting his open shots.

    Nah bro Manimal has been good but he's been here like 2 games.

    Rivers has been cash money with Cp3 out we need his play making and versatility. Dude's been playing great and reminds me of Beverly with less 3 pt shooting but better playmaking.

    Unless Faried can start hitting spot up threes at at 33% clip or better he will never see a single second of playing time in the PF slot as a Houston Rocket. I don't know why people think he will. When have the Rockets ever played a PF that can't hit three pointers in recent years?

    More likely to look like:

    C Capela
    PF Tucker
    SF Gordon
    SG Harden
    PG Paul

    PG Rivers
    C Faried
    SF Ennis
    SG Green
    C Nene
