There are 2 kinds of bench depth. 1) Regular season 2) Playoffs Rockets can dance around 8-ish guys for regular season but that turns to 6-ish...
I posted this in another thread but can drop it here too. Proposed *3-Team* Jimmy Butler trade *with the assumption he tells Philly to trade him...
PJ Tucker will not be included in any Butler trade. It will either be EG+Nene or Capela+Nene And the MLE will be used to fill a need.
And now...... Step 2: Make Philly believe that there is a team IN THE EAST that wants Butler. (better do the opt-in and trade so you get...
He won't because there is no money to spend (actually around 500K I think but likely not enough to buy a late 2nd rounder). All of the available...
I just listened to @The Cat's podcast with Hunter Atkins. And he was TOTALLY PROJECTING on Rivers. I don't agree with Hunter's outlook on the...
You said "The insistence on putting this on the refs is troubling." Meaning as fans we should not take into account that aspect. I said that it...
This is not binary. It isn't putting it ON or NOT ON the refs. There is nuance. I think they thing on fouls though is....will the player be fouled...

“I want us to be tough,” Fertitta said. “I never want to be soft. I don’t like soft ownership and I don’t like soft teams. That’s not my culture....
You can't not regret the trade but regret the 4yr deal. You can't have your cake and eat it too. As soon as the *opt in and trade* was agreed on,...
No. You have to strike when opportunity hits. You can't always pick and choose your opportunities. Timing matters. Situations matter. Getting CP3...
This should be a fun thread.
As a LT team I do not believe the LLE/BAE is available to them. Just the T-MLE at ~ 5M and Vet Min deals.
Chris Paul does not have a "no trade clause." Also, Rockets are not trading Chris Paul.
Haven't gotten a chance to listen to the podcast yet. Maybe it isn't the best situation. All I can go on is what Austin Rivers says to the media...
Could the Rockets get Rivers for the Vet Min? I don't know. What we DO know is he 1) Has come from money 2) Already is coming off a sweet contract...
