    I don't believe Bridges is untouchable but they will only trade him for a superstar or a guaranteed top 3 pick imo.

    Above average offense and elite defense is worth the max ten times out of ten.

    Yep, but I woudn’t trade any of our core for him other than Jalen. Jalen, Tate, any other filler plus all their picks. I would do that in a second. By today’s standards, Bridges is a max (not super max) player, so extending him is a good move. I believe Bridges contracts coincides with FVV option. Re-sign Bridges to max extension, Amen to PG. For now:

    FVV pg
    Bridges sg
    Brooks sf
    Jabari Pf
    Sengun C

    Amen PG
    Cam SG
    Tari SF
    Green PF
    Find a backup center.

    Quickley is out of the question now. He's being traded to Toronto. :(

    Is Trent available now? Does adding him and Olynyk solve all of the Rockets problems without giving up a first?

    HOU IN: Trent Jr & Olynyk

    UTA IN: Landale & 2 second round picks

    TOR IN: Oladipo, Tate, 1 second round pick

    I thought about that as well but the Raptors traded a first and 2 seconds for him and then extended him. I would rather have Olynyk or Capela.

    Could be the relief FVV needs, Holiday has been great but 3.3 assists per 36 isn't really cutting it when Fred sits

    Jalen Green, Oladipo, Tate every Brooklyn FRP comment. 24 & 26 and best off ours theirs 25 & 27 going to them.
    … For …
    Bridges, DayRon Sharpe, Giles

    We get bigger & matches Iam’s coaching style.

    They get control of themselves & balance out their roster anding offense.

    His defensive rating is really good! So are his shooting stats.

    The Nets biggest problem is Simmons $40m this season and next.

    Even with Simmons $40m they are projected to be under the cap by ~$18m next offseason. Move Simmons and that jumps to $58m (or $50m in return salary in trade).

    Simmons will be an expiring next season and much easier for them to move.

    They don't have their own picks, but they do have picks from Philly, PHX & Dallas.

    They can tank or they can be patient and make moves in 24/25 or 25/26 in free agency or trades.

    Minneapolis is a fine city if you like cold weather. If I had to choose between the two, I'd rather live there than move back to Houston, and it isn't close.

    But yeah OKC sucks

    I have lived in Minneapolis .... Absolutely No Way you could get me to do that again - just because of the weather alone.

    It's not just the weather either, it's just ... not a very sophisticated city, not much nightlife & not many other celebrities to rub elbows with.

    Nice place to live for a normal person who doesn't mind the cold but certainly not very appealing to a 20something high net worth celebrity.

    It's the typical small market city .... and we all know those places struggle to retain star talent.
