Afro Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 (edited) 20 minutes ago, therealist said: even swapping DJ for herb and capela for ayton is not competing with the celtics or knicks next year (throw in ingram for shits and gigs) trae/kobe ingram/bogi herb/risacher jalen/gueye ayton/oo this seems to be the best roster we could realistically assemble, and it's doubtful we'll even get there. but even if we did, this roster simply isn't good enough. might be time to rip the band-aid off now and accept a full rebuild (sigh) I'm getting very close to this as well. And y'all know how much I love Trae. BUT....you cannot compete with this roster if you refuse to pay the tax. It's just not possible. So either they're just not competitive(again) or they manage to make, what, 4 separate trades this offseason to completely revamp the roster by trading away everyone but Trae and Bogi? While also making sure none of those trades put you over the tax? I'm dubious on that....at best. ETA: I said Trae and Bogi because they're the "top dollar" guys that aren't 100% on the block.

Popular Post thecampster Posted June 27 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 27 Speaking of wings and the offseason. Vit was given 1 major thing to work on for the off-season....get stronger. We'll see before the preseason starts if he makes good on that. I am told that if Vit can get noticeably stronger, there's a spot in the rotation for him. If he doesn't, there might not be a place on the team for him. They really like him but he gets outmuscled easily. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators macdaddy Posted June 27 Moderators Report Share Posted June 27 Yeah the AJ dump is just embarrassing. The question is was he Landry's pick? He became GM just before the draft but all signs seem to point to the fact that maybe he was already the guy at that point and Travis had one foot out the door but i don't know. If we're already giving up on the GM's own guys then that's even worse. It's bad enough as it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Afro Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 I like Vit, and campsters post is a perfectly reasonable thing for a franchise to be doing lol. But am I the only one that thinks were getting a little too much Vit talk this offseason? Again, like the dude a lot, but if he's a big part of our offseason, we're absolutely screwed. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No team is signing anyone other than their own FA's since free agency doesn't open until Sunday. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member AtLaS Posted June 27 Premium Member Report Share Posted June 27 I don't know why we didn't just keep AJ, for a 3.9M cap hit? We need wings and shooters anyway. What are we possibly going to get with that 2nd rounder that's better? I guess Quin just hated him that much. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a great end of bench guy but i don't want him in the rotation. I hope he proves me wrong. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GameTime Posted June 27 Report Share Posted June 27 AJ for a mid second rounder is great value for Houston. We got fleeced because we saw AJ play A LOT better than he did last year. Fields better hit on this pick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
