    Man, imagine this BBS saying "hey I don't know about the FA moves but Stone sure drafts well!" and then reconciling that with him paying assets to dump two first round picks still on their rookie deals and cutting for free another guy he said was a "lottery talent" after he sucked butt for a year.

    I’m starting to have a lot of disdain for this organization. I can’t believe they clearing space to overpay Dillon brooks.

    No team want to take him. Why we give him so much money?

    When I saw the thread title I honestly and seriously thought the name Alpha Kaba was made up and would lead to a yellow brick road of memes. The truth was far more surreal.

    I know Herro do not want to leave Miami but he would never go to Portland. I do not think we are involved in the trade?

    Rockets trade TyTy Washington Jr., Usman Garuba
    The Rockets moved to clear some of the glut of recent first-round picks on the roster, reaching agreement on a deal to trade TyTy Washington Jr. and Usman Garuba to the Atlanta Hawks.

    The Rockets will also trade their own second-round pick in 2028 and a Timberwolves second-round pick in 2025 along with $1.1 million, the Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported.

    The Rockets will received the draft rights to Alpha Kaba, the last pick of the 2017 draft. Kaba, who plays in Montenegro, has not played in the NBA or G League.The Athletic first reported the teams were working on a trade. — Jonathan Feigen

    It's sad for Disney Gary Clark who continually tweeted out nonsense takes about Garuba as Rodman with a 3 point shot and Bill Walton passing

    One of the worst moves Stone has made thus far unless it's a setup for a follow up. We'll see.

    I hear portland wants to shed nurkic and so he needs to go somewhere besides miami most likely. We do need a 5.

    I think the move was to clear cap space to go after Siakum. Kpj and Kmj would be part of that trade. We have to wait and see.
