    Agree with all of this. I think that having Thybulle, Little, and Hart would allow us to throw three different looks at high-level scorers, each with their own defensive style (Thybulle - pest, Little - physical, Hart - fundamental defender). Whoever is having the most success could close the game with Lillard/Simons/Grant/Nurkic, and we'd have injury insurance. It would be great.

    I don't know if this is iron clad but:
    https://nba.nbcsports.com/2022/06/2...o-sign-with-76ers-on-three-year-30m-contract/

    I thought the headline would show up. It says PJ Tucker to sign with Sixers 3/30M.

    They don't want Gordon anymore. They just want to get the best value for him on the way out.

    That's full MLE money that the report is talking about. So like I said, I don't know how iron clad it is.

    Houston has a good chunk of cap space, I believe, where they could trade Gordon and Martin Jr. For Harris. Philly moves Harris, thybulle and a pick for Gordon. We take on thybulle and Martin? Houston likely wants more than a future pick to take on Harris, but after the season, he's a large expiring at a time they could be looking to actually compete instead of outright tanking.

    prolly overthinking it, but i'm also wondering about houston's willingness to give morey what he wants. that was a not a good breakup and the rockets' owner seems like the petty type.

    I could at least see them trying to stick it to him or mindfuck him by making him feel like he "lost the deal" which I know Morey prides himself on never doing. I think if I had to work with Morey, I might pull some petty shit like that if it didn't hurt my overall goals.

    what Brooklyn has done over the last 15 years is insane
