    Robin. Brook plays kaman's role.

    You suggested trading for him. You know how much he costs. Say we give them nothing but expirings of wright, Robinson and kaman. That's over 11 million dollars on our bench and we only play 1 of them.

    It was a joke bro... I actually wouldn't mind him coming off the bench... He would be getting the same minutes he's averaging now anyway. :chest bump:

    True, but at least Kaman is healthy right now.

    We have lots of fire power in the starting lineup already. Fropez compliments the other starters nicely. I wouldn't mess with that.

    Now imagine Brook coming in off the bench and playing the Kaman role -- only much, much better.

    Then in end-game situations -- it's situational.

    Amazing.

    Brook is also a pretty good defensive player, when he doesn't have to carry an offense. He would instantly be the best shot-blocker on our team.

    What a sales pitch. "We'd really love to have you as part of the rockets organization so we can trade you later on this season!"

    Problem with that is you cannot combine the TE with a player. It has to be one trade for one player. I think Brook makes like 15-16 mil

    True but technically you could trade for a player Brooklyn wants, and then trade said player and one of yours for Lopez.
