There's no one player that could be straight up added to Houston that would make them on a par with the Cavs or Warriors.

If you added Anthony Davis and one of the following wings I think you would get there: Kawhi, Butler, Giannis.

LeBron James.
Sometimes I'll start a sentence and I don't even know where it's going. I just hope I find it along the way.

This Makes no sense as harden is known as a good teammate (he clashed with Howard who has known to clash with everyone) but the rockets seem to love him and Russell apparently loved him more than kd

So basically you're taking shots when you have no bullets

Noel should be able to help them. Okafor would be a disaster in their system though.


Noel for Dekker and McDaniels?


I was thinking Noel too. I'm sure D'Antoni loves Dekker though. Probably a pick or something would be better with any filler needed if Houston can't accept that much salary long term with a new contract. I don't think D'Antoni would be a big fan of Noel either. I'm not entirely sure how good he finishes a pass around the basket, but D'Antoni hates playing anyone who isn't a plus on offense.

IIRC, McDaniels really wanted out of Philly as well.
