He was truly horrific during the finals. You take away his shooting, he's incapable of doing anything else at this point.

He will be fine here. Just as long as his asking price isn't too high

He's generally not very good in the post season. Once defences get in playoff mode he struggles like most one dimensional players.

He was bad for us this year but also pretty bad against us the previous two years.

Rockets going to take interest in Gallinari. I wonder how much Otto Porter could be had for if Rockets fail to get PG13.
If Rockets can get Milsap for $23-24 mil/yr , that would be good. If that doesn't work, then maybe go after Ibaka.

I'd be very interested in either of those guys. I'm not sure what they'll be commanding on the open market, though.

Ariza and Anderon to Knicks for Melo?

Eric Gordon + Trevor Ariza to San Antonio for LaMarcus Aldridge

Ryan Anderson, Ryan Kelly and Onuaku to Phoenix for Tyson Chandler and Brandon Knight

Use MLE on CJ Miles or PJ Tucker
Use BAE on Jonathan Simmons (restricted)

SF: Miles/
PF: Aldridge/Qi
C: Capela/Chandler
PG: Paul/Knight
SG: Harden/Simmons

I like the current team, i would like Millsap or Gallinari but they are very difficult to get. I guess no one wants Ryan Anderson, but he will be useful as PF substitute.

If you guys can get the Knicks or some team to take Ryan Anderson than you can land Carmelo. I don't think you can get Carmelo if Anderson isn't included.

The Rockets are shaping up rather well, but they need a GOON. What about Bogut for the min? If he can walk,he can still set illegal screens for Harden and CP3.
