    Okc already has 17 players on their roster not including those 3.

    Cut is coming.

    Don’t know about that, it’s not like he passed on Scoot to draft Brandon Miller. :D

    Second round picks are useless.

    Holy sheet... I wonder if Houston paid for this to be done and is going to re-sign them

    Because they were traded twice and waived Hou is free to sign them I believe @BimaThug ?

    Josh Christopher isn't going to blow up.

    He is a solid bench player at best.

    Give Stone a raise. Man has made me laugh more in the last week than any other Rocket ever. Pure entertainment.

    He's a worse GM than picking Brandon Miller in front of Scoot.

    You can see how bad he is.

    This would be wild

    We have 2 roster spaces open.... IF the FO organized this I will give them some props. We would have paid 3 net 2nds to have this done.

    He’s not great and should be upgraded, but he’s also done a decent job in the draft outside of JC/Garuba. The team is set up with a promising young core and vet leaders. It’s hyperbole to say he’s hands down worst GM in the league.

    I highly doubt we re-acquire Tyty after we signed Holiday.

    We have FVV, Thompson, Holiday and KPJ at PG. It's the most crowded spot on the roster by far. Tyty would be stupid to even agree to that.

    We could use a 3rd string C at the end of the bench (Garuba). Even there though, I bet they'd rather go with a vet for the minimum.

    I think OKC just wants those guys but who knows.

    We couldn't afford to give mins to our first round picks and traded them for Jack sht due to stone incompetence while presti is collecting assets and our first round picks like infinity stones.

    Win-win!

    Now we can re-sign TyTy and Garuba so we can send them with a couple of picks and some $ and make another run at an already-signed Brook Lopez!
