    Thompson is a pretty good defender and Martin is garbage

    Rival exec tells me Rockets already have a Jeremy Lin deal lined up and ready to execute if they need the cap room to sign Melo or LBJ.

    Perhaps they're waiting for a counter-offer from a different team.

    Just means Mr Aldridge will average 60ppg against Huston this year.

    Makes zero logic for Huston to go after Melo. They don't have issues scoring the ball. They don't have issues with players getting their own shot. They have issues playing together as a team. They have issues on defense. Can't tell me James Harden or Terrance Jones are magically going to become better defenders that stop players. Don't even get me started on Beverly...........

    seems like Orlando may have wanted the capspace, maybe they have other stuff brewing?

    One thing I think keeps getting over looked in the whole Houston Lebron sweepstakes is this. Houston in addition to have the cap space to sign Lebron, will also have 2 8.3 million dollar trade exceptions. This is not going to be a team that struggles to fill their bench this off-season.

    They would have to renounce the exceptions to have cap space.

    Nope but they put themselves in a good situation for three years but after they will need to improve their D to be a contender.

    Rockets should target bosh over carmelo. Am guessing that's their ultimate plan. Probably easier get than James or carmelo and fits team better. Beverly/harden/Parsons/bosh/Howard

    Maybe you should just stick to simple trades like Lillard for Conley. The salary cap doesn't seem to be your thing.
