Tobais handles the ball good enough and will probably get better at it too.

Still likely to be about 20th, but the longer Bags is on the Knicks, the greater the chance we get a pick in the teens.
Potential here for us to get a top 10, a top 20 in 2014. Then an extra 2nd rounder next year + whatever we can snag for a vet in a trade, then a 2016 1st rounder from Philly followed by the Lakers' 1st rounder in 2017. Gonna be good.
Yeah, Henny looks like a genius more and more as the days go by.
If Henny was a genius, he would've gotten the better pick of the two.

Where else could Dwight have gone? He has the best chance to win in Houston.
Scrub? lol Harden is far from a scrub.

I remember him as a good defender from Thunder days. What did go wrong in Houston to get him that much desinterested in playing D? He's at Kobe level now.

If he wanted to be in the West, he shoulda went to the Warriors. Now, that would be an awesome team for him.

Did the Warriors have enough capspace to sign Howard and Iggy? If they did then I would agree.

Hell no they didn't. But, Dwight would be worth more than just Iggy to that team. Imagine Dwight alongside David Lee with that Curry dude and Klay.

No idea. But they could've traded for him. IMO, they should've. Although, Bogut really isn't that bad.

I disagree because They already have Bogut and they desperately needed wing defense.

Bogut hasn't really stepped up to the plate and is still struggling to play over 24mpg. Iggy is taking time away from Harrison Barnes, so go figure. I reallly like Iggy and he will help the Warriors, but they need interior defense badly as anybody can score on them outside of SF or sometimes SG right now.

They had no cap space. And how do you know they Lakers would have taken a deal?
Houston was the best choice that had cap space.

Rockets are pretty much stuck with Lin and possibly Asik with their $15 million balloon payment in the last year of their contract effectively strapping the Rockets financially until they are gone. They don't have much of a bench for a while which was quite evident in the Walloping they got from the Clips last night. Dwight and his defense didn't do much against the 137 point barrage. I hope that depressed Dwight and created a torn Labia.

while it is a balloon payment in the normal sense, the cap charge is evened out over the 3 years, so there is no balloon payment there.

Harkless can start at the 2, with dipo and Harris. SF and SG are mostly interchangeable as long as one of them can be a secondary ball handler.
It doesn't HAVE to be a SG. I think it funny that all of the sudden Harris doesn't have the ball handling if it means starting Harkless at the 2. SMH. Anything to avoid giving Moe any type of credit for anything

What the heck does saying Harris doesn't have comparable handles compared to Durant/Harden have to do with Moe?
I can't even see what "credit" would possibly be withheld from Harkless by talking about Tobias weaker areas? How do you even connect the two? Am I not being accurate in saying Tobias doesn't have the ball handling of Durant/Harden?
A smart coach once said, "Potential just means you're not good enough yet." Playing on potential is like living on air: It's essential, but if thats all you have, you're eventually going to starve.
