It's like people don't realize how trades happen. The Rockets had to call teams and offer Jarrett Allen. If his value was way higher than a late...
No I am not claiming that now. Oladipo said that himself. I sent you the quote where he said that. I have no idea how I am embarrassing myself...
I don't know what else to tell you. Dipo himself said they went in thinking he wouldn't accept it. They didn't even give him a chance to say yes...
I did answer your question long ago. I said they might have been screwed if he signed a formal offer and it was submitted to the league. But...
People get BS lowball offers from jobs all the time when they are leaving. The company doesn't really want them to stay but they offer them...
Yes, maybe. This can be lesson one on conceding. Realize that Stone could have traded for Oladipo for different reasons. It could be win now,...
Maybe adding Oladipo was win now. But Stone saying it was is pretty much what he has to say. No GM is going to come out and say we are trying to...
Who was injured at the time of the trade? You can't use future injuries to explain why the Rockets should have known they wouldn't win more...
Here is what I see. This is the Rockets roster if they keep Allen, LeVert, and Prince. Wall/ Gordon/McLemore LeVert/Tate/Prince Wood/Tucker...
Maybe, just maybe, they wanted him to feel wanted on the team he was currently playing for. You know, like how people say they are glad you came...
He needs to see an e-mail from Stone to the entire front office detailing their exact plans to trade Oladipo. Anything short of that will be spun...
Because that issue is irrelevant to why you keep bringing it up. The Rockets didn't offer him an extension to keep him around. It was a nice...
It wasn't a real offer. Here is what Oladipo said about it: That actually wasn’t yesterday. That was a long time ago. They came at me with the...
Because they knew he was never going to accept it. It was just a nice thing to do to welcome him to Houston. Go google it, you will find several...
You really should go read up on the extension. It wasn't some formal offer. It was a welcome to Houston hope to keep you around offer. It was...
That wasn't even really an offer. The Rockets asked him do you want this extension while also saying we know you aren't going to accept it.
Morey was saying at the time of the trade the Rockets were looking to tank.
Rest your case of what? That Allen, LeVert, and Prince wouldn't have made the Rockets team last year better? That Rockets team is different than...
I know they offered him a 2 year extension. Is that what you are talking about?
Ok just wanted to clear. I am saying it could have. Allen is a solid player. It also could not have. And then you add in that you have to pay...
