Where did you hear his wife is wanting to stay in Wisconsin? For whatever it's worth, she's from California and went to college at Rice in Houston

I'm not sure what he will end up being at this point, but something like that is a real possibility. If I were a betting man I'd bet on him...
One SL game doesn't mean much but if you're (still) a Mavs fan you'd rather he be good on offense than bad. Cooper will almost certainly be at...
Yeah, you can be a "roleplayer" and still be a key starter on a championship team. Jrue Holiday (with both Boston and Milwaukee) jumps to mind....
NBA Cup huh Lemme think about this [IMG]
Long term is fine, if the number is right. If he wants Jabari level money the back half of the contract better be non-guaranteed. If he'll take...
He may want Jabari type money (which, fair, he's been at least as impactful when on the court) and the team might not want to give it to him given...
I think more than anything else, you're being too hard on Jabari. Jabari is a career 13 and 8 guy with 1 block per game and average efficiency...
They have like five roleplayers on that roster who are all worth NT-MLE money or more--it's hard to see how they keep more than one of those guys...
So you pick Chet, but you don't pay him $250M after you already won the 'ship :p In any case, I don't think we win a championship during this...
I mean it's about building a roster not just having the best two or three players on the court--otherwise Phoenix would have actually been good...
I think he's assuming that even if Reed sucks to start the season again, this team (now that we have KD) is otherwise good enough to still win...
Man I can't even describe how much I'd rather have Jabari at half the cost of what OKC is paying Chet. Chet is better, but is he twice as good?...
Chet could end up being worth that money but I think the likelihood is at least as high that he basically turns into an injury bust. This will...
I wouldn't expect too much at this point--usually if a guy is going to be a star-level player he'll have shown more flashes of it during his first...
Was just thinking about how Jalen went from "summers are too damned hot" to "summers are even hotter". Also both Houston and Phoenix are a bunch...
It's an odd contract structure, but if this is the case it seems pretty favorable for the Rockets.
