![]() If Rockets are out, and Pau is BUll Bound, Melo done or he gonna wait it out to see what Mavs do?
Lebron came out of "the decision" and masterstroked the sequel! He restored a lot of cred. Melo is looking indecisive and everyone said he'll "take the money". Who cares about Bosh. He got two rings and now he took the money. Question is are the Rockets really out of this??? |

![]() thinking what they would do if they want to continue to buy talent before Chandler Parson's contract is in full effect
With the return of a mature veteran now in Ariza, Rockets have about 12m in cap space, players that they can pursue include players like Lance Stephenson or Depth with, veterans like Deng AND Marion with no state income tax In addition, they could still have the MLE, of likely 3.2m to add to their roster to either a PG like DJ Augistine/Sessions/Bayless/Mo Williams and possibly a backup do D12 with D-MO, the Euro BIG, possibly a backup BIG like Greg Stimensa/Chris Johnson (ex Twolve) or another cheap VET MIN option This could be a better team when all said is done, with one of the DEEPEST teams in the league with a core of Harden (could be playing a scoring PG/SG role, similar to a bigger Monta Ellis, with shooters to space him out) With about 12m in cap space before they decide to likely keep Chandler Parsons Lance Stephenson?
Beverely/Terrence Jones/D-MO 3.2m MLE
3.2m MLE PG |

Between Howard, Ariza and Harden they are at 44 mil. Signing Parsons puts them at 59 mil for four players. They have to be over the cap if they match that deal I believe.

They can exceed the cap to pay Parson because they have his bird rights. That's why it was important to make room for Bosh and sign him before they matched. Basically they are using Melo/Bosh money to sign FAs. |

![]() “@ChrisMannixSI: Wizards offer to Trevor Ariza was comparable to Houston's, but tax-free Texas was a factor in his decision, per a source.” I'm tired,I'm tired, I'm so tired right now......Kristaps Porzingis 1/3/18

Problem is the Rockets are on a timer- I think they only have one more day until they have to match Parsons offer sheet. |

I love how the media have such a boner for the Nets, they all praised that trade last year in which they gave up all their picks for 2 past it players and went way over the cap. The kind of stuff we used to get blasted for (and rightly so). What do they have to show for it? KG is no longer effective and Pierce has just gone for nothing. |
