    Yeah it works that way for all players

    VV and Brooks robbed the Rockets free agent brinks truck with water guns and butter knives

    Guess the Rockets sponsors decided they wanted to upgrade the PG position from a vet leadership angle, so maybe they are paying 20$ mill for that vet locker room presence and the other half $ for VV actual floor game, which for some reason they lost faith in the self-proclaimed PG/head honcho who they benched the other 40$ mill man in Wall to give the free reign to head honcho

    you never pay a player 30+ million annually to be a decoy, you pay them that amount to be 1st/2nd All NBA caliber, just my 2 cents
    I don't think VV is an elite talent or PG but he is a feel good story and worked with he had and maxed it out, the Rockets feel he is worth the pay over KPJ

    The refs may not bail them out as much but they will get some calls on experience alone

    I Am not against what you are saying

    And maybe VV could pass to be a modern European (pale), he looks of what they call mulatto, and KPJ is what you would call a copper color American Mu Atlantean

    As I said VV robbed the Rockets with a water gun n butter knife

    Im guessing you are a media member.

    They prop up players with feel good stories and narratives....only to watch
    them fall hard and often. For what goes up must come down. Both the
    up and downs sell papers, views, click bait glances.

    Alley ways are filled with bums that were once feel good stories.

    You got me somewhat confused I Am just seer or fly on the wall

    And of course they prop up feel good stories since they survive on content, so a player like a VV can be seen as the American dream storyline that anybody can make it if they work hard

    They also prop up the good to elite players since they all have a story to tell/sell

    Yeah as above so below as within so without

    Its almost like you are arguing with yourself but using me as the fill in to state your dislike for the wasted cap space

    You should be sending your grievance - rebuttal to the offices Tilman and Stone, let them know how you really feel

    Anyone with eyes knows that was not worth a flagrant 2.

    Don't want to see an ejection unless the team isn't fired up, and of course nothing dirty but this was pretty damn funny.

    This team needed a firey competitor with an edge. Looking forward to the season.

    It looked more like a Flagrant 1, not 2 to me.

    In any case, maybe he needs to dial it back just a tad.
