Well it won’t be Houston

Kevin Love staying with the Heat, Josh Richardson going back to the Heat. Hachimura staying in LA $51mil over 3.

FVV got a max

That's a lot for FVV, but I suspect Houston had to pay a tax to get an adult in the locker room.

Can Metu shoot? I didn’t think he was a shooter

I think he replaces Biyombo...

Kevin Durant PF/SF 6-10 240
Devin Booker SG/PG 6-5 206
Bradley Beal SG 6-4 207
Deandre Ayton C 6-11 250
Cameron Payne PG 6-1 183
Drew Eubanks C/PF 6-8 245
Josh Okogie SG/SF 6-4 213
Jordan Goodwin PG/SG 6-2 200
Keita Bates-Diop SF/PF 6-8 229
Yuta Watanabe SF/PF 6-9 215
Chimezie Metu C/PF 6-9 225
Damion Lee SG/SF 6-5 210
Ish Wainright PF 6-4 250
Isaiah Todd PF 6-10 220
Toumani Camara PF 6-8 220

So we've almost certainly seen the last of Biyombo, Warren, Ross, Landale and Bazley

Which deal is more surprising, the FVV one or the Kyrie one?

I know the roster isn’t final but as it stand right now, If I had to guess, this what I think our starting/10 man rotation is going to look like.


Book-Beal-KD-KBD-Ayton

Payne-Goodwin-Okogie-Yuta-Eubanks

With Lee and Metu playing spot minutes/bigger roles when there’s injury or load management.

Blowout clean up crew
Ish
Todd
2-way: SLee and Camara.

My way too early playoff rotation being

Book-Beal-KD-KBD-Ayton

Payne or Goodwin- Yuta-Eubanks and maybe Okogie

I feel like there’s a perfect storm for KBD to have a breakout year and a potential for Goodwin to have a Caruso type impact for us.

My way too early thoughts

I kinda forgot that Schroder already fumbled one bag. Not surprised to see him prioritize money over winning.

Really thought Vogel would like Biyombo.

Good deal for him and the raptors.

I think Eubanks is actually a reasonable mix of Landale and Biyombo. A bit undersized but a surprisingly good shot blocker. Also a reasonable threat from 3, all things considered. I want Bamba now.

I'd like to add a guy with Bamba's size, but I don't at all trust him to be a professional. I'd rather keep Biyombo around.

A lot of really solid players on this list. Many of them will be bargains.

Bamba not coming here for a 3rd string role on the minimum.

Getting Ayo would be a cherry on top at this point. Only other realistic name on that list is bringing Craig back, which I'd support.

Oshae Brissett to the Celts. Good signing. He's someone I would have preferred to Metu.

FVV is worth it to the Rockets if he can bring it all together. It's like us signing Nash in 2004. The pieces are mostly there except for the PG/brains on the floor. Kyrie's 3yr deal is a good compromise if he goes off the rails. Can't commit 5 years to him.

I thought Jerami Grant was an overpay. Nice player but kind of meh.

Seth back to Mavs.

Solid piece of business to bring in a perimeter defen... wait, what?
