Yeah, I get it but those guys can be had on cheap if the Rockets choose. Tari is an asset, like I said earlier in this thread, are we SURE we want to use him or Bari for Coby White? A fringe all-star at best? I'd rather hang on to them and see what if anything shakes out later. I've always said this team should not be operating as a desperate team. I get it, we're likely not beating OKC or Denver in a 7 game series, but I don't know if Coby was the move. I don't think losing key players for Coby makes us a contender this year, thus I understand not making this move.
Those players were giving the money based on owners operating under the old CBA. The tide has shifted and now front offices are hesitant to go above the aprons and limit their flexibility during the season. Look at the mess we are in because we can't exceed the 1st apron.
