He would a complete moron to go anywhere else UNLESS a team pays him 5M more over the course of 4-5 years (9-10M a year instead of 5M) then it may seem hard to leave an extra 20-25M on the table.
Great thought.
You don't believe that HE WOULD THINK he is a great fit other places too?

The state income tax differences is a huge card in the nba for certain teams. You are right.
The rest of the you in this thread has been TERRIBLE

Your kid sounds like a [COLOR="Black"]fa[/COLOR]ggot.

I still see him as at least a year away, if not two, from seriously contributing.
I could see him being drafted late lotto, although I certainly wouldn't draft him there. I'd pick up maybe 14-20. I think Lyles is a much better prospect.

Name one other place he'd be a great fit.
Suns? Mavs? Nuggets maybe?
Honestly, where could he possibly go. You see this new Smith because of Houston's open offense. You heard McHale, he doesn't care if he shoots 3's in games as long as he makes 500 before he leaves practice. I think that's fair.
Where else will he get the freedom to step out and shoot 3s or bring the ball up the court?
Again, warm climate. Big city. Central city. New arena. Great GM. Good coach. His best man at his wedding is on the team. Harden is on the team. The offense is wide open. No taxes. Already a contender. No pressure. Big market.
I mean, there's really no good reason to leave.

I agree. Could that odom role be used in the triangle in NY? My whole point was that there are more than one team smith could help. He prob knows Houston fits him well, but if they can't pay as much as the competition he will prob leave
