I think GR3 would have received good playing time this season coming off our bench. We have two SF's in Oubre and Wiggins but with Klay out, one of them will be our starting SG. If Bazemore isn't reliable, which is certainly a realistic possibility, then GR3 would have been our primary back-up for both Oubre and Wiggins. I'm disappointed we couldn't get him.

I figure Houston is the obvious choice. There are now two teams with talented but flawed and really expensive problems. They can swap their problems with each other.

They call me Hoopstradamus.

Where "they" is a very short list.

I can't believe the Rockets got a 1st round pick too.

Have we heard yet what the protections were on it? I can believe it, based on injury risk with Wall, but I'd expect the pick to be reasonably well protected. My wild guess would be protected out of the lottery.

On the money again -- according to Shams, "it’ll be Washington’s protected 2023 first-rounder and will be lottery-protected. Those protections will gradually decrease each year, and if it hasn’t changed hands by 2026, it’ll become two first-rounders"

I haven't seen what the protections are ... I would guess lottery protected too. Could be more or less but that's my guess.

I don't know that it moves the needle for either team, two fast, once explosive guards who can't shoot.

It does seem lateral, what it does is move out a known problem personality, and both players have a new incentive to change. I have serious doubts Russ can change so maybe from that perspective alone Houston wins.

Well isn’t Wall a Texas guy?

I mean both players needed to move on, so I totally get the move. Both have warts but both can be great potentially.
