Hollinger has some personal axe to grind with Houston, I think dating back to when he was an assistant GM in Memphis and Morey slighted him in...
You realize if one team (San Antonio in this case) is getting the 4th pick in the draft in exchange for a rotation- or low end starter-level...
San Antonio is giving up Keldon Johnson (and a S&T of a free agent to a team with $70M in cap space, which is worth essentially nothing) for #4....
I'm sorry, you think Keldon Johnson is worth the 4th pick in the draft? Keldon Johnson, 23yo: 22.0 / 5.0 / 2.9 / 0.7 / 0.2 in 33 mpg, on 55% TS,...
We have $65M in cap space, the #20 pick, extra future FRP’s, extra future SRP’s, a surplus of recent frp extraneous young players + KJ + KPJ +...
You're right of course, the risk of taking a #4 pick is much higher than trading for the equivalent value veteran. Risk is good! Our goal should...
Agree with you on Amen/Sengun, and I wouldn’t avoid Scoot just because of defensive fit… but Jalen will never be guarding wings. Maaaybe he’s...

Also, everything about all the “Houston wants to win next year, they’re even considering trading the #4 pick for a win now player, they don’t need...

I really think Brook Lopez is the second guy, if we get Harden. Heard it mentioned by beat reporters a couple times now. - His strengths maps to...
Two legit shooting coaches on staff is better than just John Lucas...
I guess the difference is that you don’t see Jett as having physical tools. To me, positional size relative to skillset is the single most...
I’m not super duper high on Jett, but I kinda disagree. I think he’d be a good pick for us, as long as he measured out in his workout at actually...
Personally, I don’t think that team wins more than 28 games. Our starters were a -9 last year. That’s the point differential of a last place...
Nope, this has changed with the new CBA. Effectively, you have to hit the salary floor by the first day of the regular season. This has also...
IMO, the Rockets will be waiting and watching what happens with the Blazers and Nets until draft night. Both those teams are aggressively...
A useful exercise for considering these kinds of trades is to take a stab at creating your own trade value rankings. Objectively rank the top 100...
Nope. The first Harden trade was on a rookie contract, obviously not what I’m talking about. When he was traded from Brooklyn to Philly it was...
