    Invalidates? Im just guessing we don't want the ball in his hands for any length of time. But that is true. He was the one throwing lobs to Dwight. He was a better lobber than Harden and Bev in 2015.

    If Taylor gets sent in the Melo trade.... (I personally don't think he will tho) then I absolutely see us getting him.....

    Maybe.. but Beasley is more of a spark / scorer whereas Smith is more of a utility/matchup guy.

    Those are the exciting moments I was talking about, guys. It was thrilling, so no argument from here. I just don't think he's worth the aggravation he'll cause for some terrific moments or even games in a wildly unpredictable fashion, if we even got that. If we sign Josh and I'm wrong, feel free to give me a hard time. I will be too surprised to care about the embarrassment. ;)

    i agree w/ Deckard, i don't know why we'd talk about D12 in this thread. he JUST got traded and he's locked down for the next 2 years on the contract.

    MDA has a lot of say. Michael Beasley wasn't on the Rockets last year because MDA didn't want him on the Rockets.

    Oh, I know.

    I think I bring Smoove in contingent on Melo. I feel like he'll be much more under control on a super team than not.
