Would be nice if we could route him into a S&T for Grimes or NAW, that takes a 3rd team and is probably more trouble than it’s worth.
Maybe Cam or Hauser into our MLE, or Cam for Keynote George in a tire kicking swap

Re: Whitmore moved to ?
Unfortunately, it seems like Udoka is calling the shots now.
The front office wanted to stay the course (so did I), but Udoka aggressively pushed for Durant.
Whitmore has been in Udoka’s doghouse, so he might be gone too.

Yeah that's only 9 guys - hardly a crazy amount of depth. And you really want more depth than you think you need to get through a full season. I'd want 12-13 guys that I trust for rotation minutes even if a couple won't get them at full health.
Those are just the players on guaranteed contracts.
The Rockets are likely to keep Aaron Holiday & Nate Williams and re-sign Jeff Green & Jae'Sean Tate to reasonable deals.
N'Faly Dante is a capable 3rd center who will probably replace Jock Landale (either on a two-way or a standard contract).
Their only real NEED is another true shooting guard/combo guard.
Nate Williams sucks and Tate will probably go somewhere he has a better shot to play but they can fill those spots with other minimums. Holiday is only kept if they don't find a use for most of the mle.

Re: Whitmore moved to ?
Assuming it's a minimum for all that's better than I thought would happen, figured Jeff at the minimum was very likely, Holiday would either get his option picked up or sign elsewhere, and Tate would get a minimum somewhere else for PTKiss of Death wrote:K_chile22 wrote:Kiss of Death wrote:

Partly why I thought Detroit might work. Put him and Cade out there with three defensive bigs.
I think he should pull a protected first. I would keep him over seconds.
What about whitmore and holiday for Hield?
Could use a super shooter off the bench.
Whitmore's defense is terrible. Come on.

Jarret Allen isn’t winning you anything. Garland won’t show up in the playoffs. Mobley is a glorified dunk man. Mitchell has some experience but is a liability on defense. To me, the Cavs are a treadmill team.

Team defense isn't good because of mistakes, but I see effort at least... he isn't a bad defender on the ball. Just like his passing isn't bad in transition, just halfcourt.

Whitmore’s value seems kinda hard to project imo does anyone have a long term comp for him
