Teams don't trade future FRP's for players that won't be in their closing lineup. And a team like the Rockets has especially strong reason not to....
I’m right there with you. I don’t understand/believe how PHX has enough value to send out to incentivize the 4 team trade. MIL is taking on the...
It's not that clever because they've already swapped all their swaps, multiple times over. So the only picks they can trade out are all "least...
A realistic set of trades IMO, taking into account everyone's current and future cap, tax, and apron situations: #1: HOU in: PJ Tucker (bought...
I think it's actually somewhat unlikely that players like Lonzo, Brogdon, Bruce Brown get traded at all by the deadline. Just because their...
There's realistically zero chance any of core 7 + FVV + Dillon are traded in season. On a human level, not gonna happen at this point. Plus Stone...
With the further Embiid knee setback, Philly is essentially done as a competitive team until 2029. Embiid and and Paul George will be making...
Yup. Star mega trades that are considered successful, player age at the time: - Harden to HOU, 23 - Haliburton, 21 - Mitchell, 25 - Anthony...
If you listen to the podcast, McMahon was speaking in the past tense. Which isn’t news, the FO was eyeballing Booker last summer. Maybe because...
Reed's talents are legit. The shooting, IQ, vision, hands are all there. It's the G league obviously, but if you watched these games it was plain...
Amen on/FVV and Holiday off lineups have a halfcourt PPP rating of 89.1 this year, which would be last place in the league, below the tanking...
1. I've been an Amen guy since City Reapers, but you're not living in reality if you think we go into next season with Amen as the 36 mpg primary...
There are really just two big questions for the FO going into the next couple transaction windows. They’re not going to mess with this locker room...
Yeah at this point it'd be great to see an extension for another year + a team option at $10M-12M/yr. If he really is 90% healthy Steven Adams,...
Even in that trade outcome, the issue isn't that we'd no longer have any assets. It's that: a) We wouldn't have the assets to compete in a...
I'm not a huge Booker guy - given his supermax, age, and underwhelming season this year - but the reasoning for the FO being more interested in...
Marc Stein (with sources) throws some cold water on the Rockets FO wanting to pursue Fox. From today 1/2:...
Exactly. OKC isn’t trading their homegrown big 3 for anybody, ORL isn’t trading Paolo or Franz for anybody, SAS isn’t trading Wemby obviously....
The point was that PHX we can only realistically "unlock" tanking for PHX starting in 2026-27, and for that year only, because their swap is owed...
They cannot do that because PHX doesn't own any pick this year to swap with. HOU cannot at any point be without a 2025 first round pick, until...
