Kyyle23 Posted December 17, 2013 Share Posted December 17, 2013 QUOTE (Steve9347 @ Dec 17, 2013 -> 09:30 AM) Houston isn't asking for the moon. Finding a team that wants a $15 million cap hit for next season on a guy like Omer Asik is going to be pretty hard. http://bleacherreport.com/articles/1890598...-deal-they-like There has been talk about the Rockets wanting two first-round picks for the Turkish big man Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
southsider2k5 Posted December 17, 2013 Author Share Posted December 17, 2013 QUOTE (Athomeboy_2000 @ Dec 17, 2013 -> 09:43 AM) The Score is saying that there is more crap coming out of the DRose camp directed at the Bulls. What did I miss? THey are going to talk about it soon. Found it: Derrick Rose unhappy with Bulls' rebuilding plans His injuries are forcing the rebuild!! STFU DRose. I really have lost respect for you So the guy who refused to recruit is upset we might rebuild. Hopefully this story is made up through Reggie.

I referenced Flapship as an unreliable source in my post above by saying it'd be an even worse "source" than NY Daily News or Bleacher Report, and have dropped all interest since receiving my ridiculous promotion months ago. I can, however, call a spade a spade and see when online material is reliable or not. Three "articles" referencing an "article" with made-up information does not the truth make. The fact of the matter is that the Rockets would likely give Asik away if they could, but that final year of his contract remains a poison pill because it's a ridiculous sum to pay someone like Omer Asik.

Do they not understand that tanking for one of the best draft classes in recent history can prevent them from rebuilding at all? A core of Butler, Noah, Jabari/Wiggins, Mirotic, and Rose is a hell of a lot better than what we had this year before Rose got hurt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve9347 Posted December 18, 2013 Share Posted December 18, 2013 This Cavs and Blazers game was awesome. Lillard going 6th in last year's draft remains so silly. But the Cavs already had a point guard, so why would they want a lights out 3pt demon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or they could have taken Andre Drummond and passed on the whole Andrew Bynum experience this year. Even assuming they're not that smart, Harrison Barnes was a fairly obvious pick and would be a much better fit than Waiters. Sacramento passed on all of those guys as well, but hey, Thomas Robinson is only on his third team already.

His TS% is almost 57%. And he doesn't turn the ball over much either. Dude is a stud and I'm happy for Portland. We're going through a tough time with Rose right now. They lost Roy and Oden.
