This doesn't matter IMO.

This proves we should have played even better...

We hsd many many collapses and ended up the 8 seed while knowing that stat.

That's a problem

We won zero games going into the 4th quarter down.

We had the 5th most 10 point leads blown.

So you're arguing they had a better roster 3 years ago?

Rumor I just heard this morning is that Houston is going to put together a huge offer for Durant. They just acquired the Sun's future picks and can offer a lot more (#3 plus Sengun and future picks). Sun's start a rebuild and the Rockets are loaded for a couple seasons..

How Willie was able to do this through the whole season is just mind boggling. I mean you would think just based on luck we would have won at least 1.

Something along: Pels: JSJ, Trae Rockets: Ingram, Capella Hawks: Whitmore, Dyson, salary from Houston, #3, 3 picks from Pels


Don’t like giving up Dyson, but finally the first trade you’ve proposed that I’d approve of.

I dont think suns will budge not this year anyways. Good for Houston in trying but Suns will give it at least one more year with this group.

That rumor was definitely spreading last night after the Nets made the Knicks trade and then turned around and got their own picks back from Houston in exchange for Phoenix’s picks.


If they are moving on from Durant, it makes me wonder who else on that rosters is available.

Would Booker move? Not necessarily to us but it would mean more potential blockbuster deals out there.

I think it’s fake. Matt Ishbia doesn’t seem like a guy who wants to do a rebuild. Booker would demand a trade if that was to happen also.

Well, if it was an option I would say fire him, but it doesn't seem like that's gonna happen, so something else needs to change.

Nobody is arguing that we should just run it back.

It's just whether or not Trae is worth the war chest (and possibly Herb) and if that reality moves the needle much, OR if it's smarter to make smaller deals and if that reality moves the needle more (while giving future flexibility).

will stop the bantz, and say Murray.


Going by what Hawks fans say, Murray was not good at all for them playing off ball next to Trae, it’s why his value was so low at the trade deadline. He really started to shine again when he became the main ball handler after Trae was hurt. So he was miscast, Hawks added him out of desperation to get any talent next to Trae, fit be damned. He really never had the right talent or player fit around him to be successful. Our team is set up perfectly to see what he can do.

I’ve been on the get Trae since day one, but only if we can buy low. Meaning keeping Herb and Trey. I don’t have a problem giving up a couple firsts if we have to.

they should def give it one more year. Let that team build some chemistry. Especially since you’re stuck with Beal regardless

New rumor talking about Hornets offering Mark Williams for Rockets number 3 pick. Are Rockets really done with Sengun??

This isn't shocking b/c that wasn't the reason why they acquired him, but Trae forced that reality onto the team.

This was supposed to be his role when they got him, with Trae moving more off ball to let him be more efficient (like what CJ did this year for us).

Trae refused, chaos ensued, and both are OTB.

Agreed. If it goes down in flames this year, then they make changes. But they will give it at least two years.
