Agree. Surprised after all this time Sean Marks turned Billy King. A much better version of Billy King for sure, but way closer than I would have ever guessed.

i'm glad they dumped Prince, he was not good  
Eric on Li : 1/13/2021 4:34 pm : link
bummed about Allen the most. Levert as well, but probably not as much as Allen.

A lot on Nash now, who is obviously very green still but has so far been very spotty, particularly in game management.

A team that's going to have at least 1 of KD, Kyrie, and Harden on the floor most of the time shouldn't have any problems scoring but the depth has definitely taken a hit. I assume Jordan will start at C and Green will close. Harris will likely continue starting and rotate with Brown or Shamet closing out games.

I wonder who they add with the open roster spots. Roberson would make sense if he's healthy.
Why would the Rockets want Oladipo more than Levert?

Levert is younger with a good contract. Pacers continue to do the damn thing.
Really see-sawing on this  
Bramton1 : 1/13/2021 4:48 pm : link
Have one helluva big two, three if Kyrie gets his head out his ass. But not much else.

This has to pay off...or else.
He’s a chucker

I think the answer is that they are going to flip Oladipo at the deadline for more picks/cap space. Not sure what the calculation is there for Houston though.
Remember when...

... Nets fans were kind of insufferable with all of that "building a great culture" talk in Brooklyn.

That was a good joke.
The Nets never learn

I think Houston wants the expiring contract. Their owner's finances have suffered during the pandemic, and they are going to full rebuild. Of course if they can flip Oladipo for more cheap, long-term assets (ie, draft picks), I'm sure they will.
