Another way to think about it is that we won't have to pay Al $26.5 million when he's 36 years old. Cap flexibility goes beyond just this year.

I'm pretty sure that morey ALWAYS trade first round picks like candies when he feels like is the right move.

How many times de rockets picked in the first round of the draft in the last 10 years? like from the 2015 he hasn't drafted a guy in the first round...I'm not saying that it's good or bad, but you can see a patern.

I mean we have expirings to match salary instead of horfords deal now


Yeah.

Green 15 + Scott 5 + Ferguson 4 are 24M expiring


+ JRich. Furkan and Zhaire can add 5 more.

Harden + Gordon for Simmons and expirings confirmed.

This will go down as a great trade until AT LEAST 2025.

The next step should be moving Tobias Harris contract as well. He is the only non-superstar who has value... For him the sixers need a good PF and a decent backup PG for Ben. Then a back up center for Embiid in FA.



Harris played at an ALL star level for Doc Rivers about 20 months ago. He may be just fine if you can put him back at his natural office position. He’s fine as a 3rd star. Let him recoup some value first if you think you need to trade him.

Sheesh that is an ugly look.



Imagine being an uber wealthy public figure and caring what a few dipshits say about you on the internet.

Conversely, imagine being on the internet and feeling the urge to rip on an athlete's sibling because he's not playing up to his contract. In the words of the youth "it's not that serious".

I mean, we paid him $109M and he looked cooked. Anna would be hard-pressed to find a fan base that's content with that.

Anyway, enjoy life in lovely OKC. Beautiful country. Thinking of buying a summer home there.

And also forgetting that our brand of **** takes insults as compliments, lol.

Trust us Anna, it wasn’t nearly as exhausting as trying to fit your husband (and a really decent guy) into our starting lineup.

I was just trying to be cute. Fully agree with the not that serious part though, without knowing the context.
