But please don't ever mention me and a wet dream in relation with any dude, not that there is anything wrong with that.

Bot, help me get Alpha back on track and wipe out Alpha-Eason wet dream visuals from all our collective minds! Stat!

Houston does not have a good, long term center. Cleveland has too many centers. NY has Mitch and want Mitchell. Cleveland could use Grimes and someone like Cam Whitmore.

And I do love Tari for Grimes, cause in this scenario DDV is on bench with McBride, Hart, Tari, Precious/Sims, that is fun.

NY has a lots of picks to spread around. Mitch fit next to Sengun and the rest?

Maybe not exactly straight up, but why not otherwise?

Tari is a SF/PF type?

Dillon Brooks, Jabari Smith, Amen Thompson, Cam Whitmore. That’s a lot of minutes to split with.

Insofar as I can tell, they prob would love a home grown kid who is a low usage, POA guard?

You convinced me. Do it. I wanted Tari Eason when I thought we had the #8 pick. You want our first this year? Do it. Trade exception? Done. Tari is a future 6MOY. Gritty off the the bench kind of guy. Seemed to prefer the off the bench in college. Would be perfect here with McBride. He’s scrappy. Among the league leaders in hustle plays. If it was even remotely possible I would pull that trigger.

Thought the title said Alba?
I see where you are going with this.
Relaunch the ship for DM?

Please don't mention any other scenarios that would bench Devo.

Fyi Cam Whitmore has been balling with extra minutes since Eason has been out.

Yeah I wonder if Houston realizes this an know they need to make a move sooner rather than later

Possibly.
Under Rockets control until 26.
Relatively young and not much against cap.
Trade chip to get some more picks? Or for other young players with potential? Ie Grimes. Maybe.
But think they would use guys like Green, Brooks or Bullock for that? Who all don't fit the time frame.

But who knows with the Rockets. With moves for Brooks and VanVleet puzzling.
Crazy how many meaningless games Van Vleet has had. 3 points in 37 minutes last night. Grant it, they won and he had 14 assists. So there is that.
