Yahoo Sports: "VanVleet, a 31-year-old vet set to enter his 10th season in the league, averaged 14.1 points, 3.7 rebounds and 5.6 assists last season across 60 games. He led the Rockets in assists and steals per game, while lending a level of leadership in the locker room."

I don't know exactly how they would get it done but they should go after Anfernee Simons. Not saying he replaced Vanvleet as a leader but the stats say he can produce just as much offense or more. If they can just get it done in a way where the Celtics spend less money they wouldn't have to send back equal talent.

Time for a Westbrook / KD reunion! :cheers:

Has the chemistry with Steven Adams, can be the locker room Unc with Jeff Green.

For those asking, the Rockets can't sign Russell Westbrook, Ben Simmons, or anyone else since they are roughly $1.2M from the first apron hard-cap. The Rockets can apply for a disabled player exception, but that doesn't change their financial restrictions.

Top comment on that post makes some great points:


@RussellT33
Gave $7 mill to Clint Capela to be a 3rd string center when they could’ve just signed Bismack Biyombo to a minimum to do the same thing

They can’t even sign Cam Payne or Monte Morris and why the hell did they sign Josh Okogie they already got enough defenders who can’t shoot

Why did they go after Capella anyway? I have to believe he's out of the rotation most nights. Brogdon would have been better insurance in hindsight.

They drafted Sheppard at 3. Sink or swim time for him.

Forgot about Sheppard. Yeah you have to throw a third pick out there at this point, in fact he should have been pushing for Vanvleet's minutes even if he had not torn his ACL.

T-Mac has entered the chat.

Leaves a very promising Raptors roster for the Magic to play with Grant Hill. They nearly get Duncan too which would have meant who knows how many rings. Hill goes down early and plays a handful of games in 4 years leaving T-Mac to carry the team with zero help. To add salt in the wound the first season Hill's healthy in Orlando is the season T-Mac leaves.

Then to Houston, himself or Yao are constantly injured at the worst times every season. The first year they get out of the 1st round is the year T-Mac gets hurt and can't play in the PS.

Goes to the Knicks, isn't re-signed because they need cap space for Melo.

Finally when completely washed up joins the Spurs and is seconds away from getting a ring then Ray Allen happened.

Joining a 73 win team, how's that unlucky?

I feel he should've said Curry. It would've fit his anti Curry agenda.
