Maybe we can bring Danuel House back now?

We can probably sign someone better than House after the buyouts happen.

After that trade, seems like Shumpert is here to stay.

Anyone else follow Mark Berman on twitter?

Feel like his NBA sources are the same as ours - Shams and WOJ. He always tweets deals a couple minutes after they happen.

We can get someone better but I don't think we'll get someone taller than House. He's 6 ft 8 and we need height more than anything right now at wing.

Not really sure how trade exceptions work, but this seems like something to keep an eye on.

It would be great if we can get Markieff Morris

Are the NBA salary cap rules the most difficult things to comprehend in sports?

4 second round picks is way too many to give up for someone who will likely sign elsewhere in free agency

Haven't seen any follow-ups about the trade, so this seems like a salary dump in return for picks most likely.

That leaves us with 3 roster spots, a high portion of the MLE, and a little bit of room under the luxury tax line.

Was looking forward to Sauce Castillo coming on board.

Here's the follow-up:

So that leaves us what, 3 open roster spots?

Never mind, found this.

Actually this tweet is wrong. We currently have 12 players.

Morey had such a bad offseason holy ***** He just dumped all of the trash he obtained during the summer.

I think it's fairly obvious Houston won't be making any blockbuster trades but are instead prepping their roster for buyout candidates.

Yeah in hindsight it was awful, but at least Morey is proactive and cleans up his spills, doesn't just sit on his hands and say oh well

I agree but when better options are on the table, signing MCW and Carmelol Assthony is incredibly stupid IMO. Also he still hasn't done anything to replace Ariza. This roster still isn't tall enough to successfully implement a switching defense.

Marc Gasol to Toronto

I see no lies in your post. Let's see what moves we make in the coming days in the buyout market

We traded James Ennis....I guess so we can participate in the buyout market?
Maybe the other person in the world that thinks he's good is on the Sixers staff. And they only had to trade the option to swap future second round picks to get him!

Blah. I guess we wait until next year. No way this team comes anywhere close to Golden State.

I know we all underestimated Arizas contributions but you're telling me that because we don't have Ariza & a broken down LMAM all of a sudden we are not in the Warriors league anymore?

I think this team, when healthy & with a few good moves by Morey can be right back in the same spot.

If we make it back to the conference finals I'll call it a successful season. At a certain point in the season, it looked like this team was lottery bound, so it could be much worse.

With a fully healthy team and a couple of good pickups there's no reason why we couldn't give them a run for their money.

I know we all underestimated Arizas contributions but you're telling me that because we don't have Ariza & a broken down LMAM but we have Harden somehow playing even better all of a sudden we are not in the Warriors league anymore?
It's mainly because last year we were an elite defensive team. For whatever reason, we aren't anywhere near as good defensively this year (although these last 3 games have been a good sign).

The Knicks are apparently keeping DeAndre, but buying out Wes Matthews.

Indiana is the front runner for Matthews, though.

Robin Lopez may be a buyout candidate
