agarcia34 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 (edited) I would also have to get PJ Tucker back in that trade cause the Warriors lack centers. Warriors should be able to trade that Minny pick and if it lands in the top 3 they would just get nexts years Minny pick witch will be unprotected. I also don’t think the Warriors would do it.

indifference Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 Rockets should just do whats best for them and ignore “trade destinations”. Spurs did with Kawhi and considering their roster construction they are in OK shape. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What exactly did they get for Kawhi? Derozan? A player they probably will be fine moving on from in the offseason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spurs did with Kawhi and considering their roster construction they are in OK shape. They lost in the first round first year post Kawhi, missed the playoffs last season, and will likely miss the playoffs again this season. Kawhi's situation was different as well because he was coming off of an injury. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was supposedly a "godfather" offer that the Spurs didn't really even consider since they didn't want to trade him to SA. IIRC, Ingram/Hart and then either Ball/Kuzma plus picks. So yeah, that package would have been much better than what they received just off the fact they would have gotten Ingram on a rookie deal. Terrible move by the Spurs.

indifference Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 If im rockets i like PHI offer over BK offer. Harris is a good shot creator and Simmons may not mesh with Wall but you can flip a 24 year old all star into something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J-ALL-DAY Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 He gone! Mannix also reported a deal could be reached as soon as today. From the Nets and 76ers offers, got to take Ben Simmons who is the clear best player in any package. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know you have been one of Harden's biggest supporters, but did the way this ended rub you the wrong way or you already accepted this before the season? The one thing I will say about Houston, you guys have found ways to stay relevant and in the playoffs with all sorts of different cores the last two decades. New regime there but if you get Simmons back, team should be solid. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agarcia34 Posted January 13, 2021 Share Posted January 13, 2021 (edited) Looks like Simmons is headed to the Rockets. Feel bad for him. Nothing official Edited January 13, 2021 by agarcia34 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
