    Yeah...I don't get it Morey gets all this Gresat GM endorsement crap constantly, but he's mortgaged the future and taken steps backwards, since last year imo.
    They were not the defensive team this year, as last. Giving an injury prone CP that kind of money is insane.

    Two teams that were supposed to contend but took steps backwards, Utah & Houston. Make Neil look like a genius!

    Man, if the Knicks don't have KD gifted to them in free agency, they would certainly be dumb enough to take CP3 in a deal.

    Actually, I think being a fan of the Rockets is pretty exciting. They are constantly trying to get better, from the team, to the coaches, to the GM, etc. They are almost always making moves and there is constant player movement, which is fun. They are the only WC team to have actively tried to dethrone the Golden State empire, and almost did it.

    And guess what, they have had more regular and post season success than the Blazers in the last decade.

    I think the Lakers get AD and CP and then have to fill out their roster with scrubs. If they renounce pretty much everyone, trade LB to the Rockets and Kuzma/Ingram to NO it might work out. The Pelicans would probably want a pick or to unload a bad contract on Houston (maybe soloman hill, they don't have any bad long-term deals).

    That context is irrelevant to the point I'm trying to make.

    When Houston first traded for Paul, a bunch of us predicted (were hoping for) that the pairing would clash. Just took two seasons for this to manifest but it's here. I'm guessing CP ends up in LA.

    At his salary? Hell no.

    If you really want a hometown guy, let's just try to keep Enes.
