Rockets are keeping their "high lotto" unless they can turn it into

a -  a higher lotto
or
b  -  2 lower picks, but not much lower,  including a "lotto".

Great game by our boys last night.  Bulls playing for something - make no mistake.


Quickley with the cool leadership hand - and Burks - what can you say?

You can say Burks should have started all year.

You would be right to say that.

Houston would be getting 20-10-5 on an off year plus 3 threes a game at a good clip with secondary playmaking on the books for Green and Senguns rookie contracts. That balances and fortifies their team more than anyone there in the lottery this year.

I am less fixed on the picks than the players involved.

Fac, in addition to being a grower of very good stuff, are you also a Houston fan?

Also, both Chamaco and ChamAAco agree with you re. Burks. That must make you very, very happy.

Jules has asked out. Still think I am being too nice to Houston?

I would be happy to get Wall and a pick swap for Jules and Fournier with no padding at this point.

Jules for Harry Barnes and Trey Lyles would be a fine alternative though we would still need a dump spot for Evan, Kemba, and Noel.

Julius for Myles Turner, straight up? 

Myles has one year remaining at 18 million. 

Make good?

New contract.

No?

Cap space. 

Anyway, carry on Trader Facil.

Turner and Brogdon for Randle and Fournier would be ok. Turner for Randle straight up would be tough, but I would probably say yes at this point.

Watch the body language. His head is all wrong. Something must be done.

Julius if anything likely goes in a package for someone making more $$

Reaching....

Is tiebreaker head to head or conference record?

If NY wins out Atl needs to go 3-4 to avoid tiebreaker.

The flaw in your reasoning is the idea that

A] That with Green and Porter that the Rockets would have any interest in Fournier.

B] That they would pony up a lottery pick for Julius.

C] That they would view four year commitments to JR and EV as preferrable to one final year of Wall.

Wishing ain't fishing.

Your trade makes sense from the Knicks POV.

Not Houston's. 

No way to spin it.

The positive to it is Rockets want to win soon.  Not just add younger to young.
