I wonder what Toronto offered him. He may have just have wanted to go to Houston.

Keep in mind that the no state income tax means he was still getting more money from that HOU deal

Also, Texas has no state income tax. I'm no wiz at these things, but it might amount to about the same after taxes are factored in, annually.

He knows how far off we are and was a bit disappointed with our teams defensive identity. Not a huge shock.

He made the right move.

We have no one to guard lebron. Lebron might average 40pts if we meet up again

Ya this is a BIG miss for Masai. You cant replace what he brings easily and certainly not with Patterson or Carroll


Sure you can. He provided zero offence and good (but not world-beating) defence. We'll manage just fine without him.

I think you might be under rating the intangibles he brings to the table. The hustle plays that are infectious. The enthusiasm he brings, the ability to hold teammates accountable. Being a vocal guy. Bringing an element of grit and toughness to a squad lacking it. He did a lot of the things that don't always show up on the stat sheet, but are important elements to winning franchises.
