Welcome to the NBA where you can be a complete jerk to your employer and teammates and get exactly what you want. I wish one day some owner....my bad "governor" would grow some damn balls.

Tilman Fertita "Never heard of him but I heard that Dipo guy is a rising star. Let's take him", Probably

Both Exum and Oladipo are expiring contracts so it sure smells like Houston's cheap owner just wants to cut costs.

Harden required to jog to Brooklyn to shed the pounds, per sources.

Rockets got hosed. Picks in the late 1st round and Oladipo for an ATG?

Bro they got 3 firsts and 4 swaps. That's quite a bit.

Kyrie is not even top 15...NOT even top 20

Lebron
Curry
Durant
KAwhi
AD
Giannis
HArden
Luka
Jokic
Embiid
Butler
Paul
Dame
Tatum
Beal
Lowry
Gobert
KAT
Healthy KP
PG
Booker...

Seven more are debatable...

I would take Irving without a doubt over Booker, George, Porzingis, Gobert, Lowry and Beal. Debatable ones are Tatum, Lillard and Paul.

In what world is Dame and Tatum over Kyrie "debatable"?

I think so, not even the rockets are that dumb.

What a horrific trade for nets. Thought they would have learned from the KG - pp trade

Just Jeff Green?

I mean, they have to try to sign or trade for another big now i'm assuming.

KD died?

Yeah, idk how someone can compare the situations.

Durant's achilles, Harden's gut, and Kyrie's brain make it comparable.

They lost their depth and only true big man that didn't stink it up.

Kyrie is awol.

They could be the best team in the league tho. I'm lost

TLC can do what Prince does anyway. Harden is an upgrade over Levert. The only problem is the C position. They need to get one on vet min

Hmmm, 4 1st rounders and 4 pick swaps or fight for the 8 seed with “balls”? What to do? What to do?

You know what, I was apprehensive about tanking this season but now I'm not even mad, Nets and Pacers look stronger.

So do the Cavs move Drummond to unleash JAFRO?

And there is only one basketball. No defense at all. they are just going try and out score teams. Should be interesting.
