AD sure making some ya'll thirsty af for him to bounce:hhh:

It's amazing. Same people that woulda rather wanted them to tank their lives away can't wait for him to leave even though they have an opportunity to STILL be one of the better teams in the West.

Unless you pull a KD, not all great players are meant to win a ring.

What is there to like about the trade for Utah :jbhmm:

I dont see how you spin it as a good trade for them other than them saving future cap space on Hood which doesnt matter anyway because they never were landing a FA. It seems like they got coerced into helping out Cleveland for no real payoff to me.
They weren't bringing him back regardless. If it weren't for Rodney Hood getting banged up all the time, Mitchell doesn't wind up being as good as he is.


Think back to last summer and the whole Hayward situation where they may have wanted a S&T with Boston. They wanted Crowder back. They could use more scoring but I don't put it past Utah to be able to find those guys.

Rockets probably had their most impressive win of the season tonight. Coming off a b2b in Denver, playing Utah with no Eric Gordon, Ryan Anderson or Clint Capela. They closed the game with a Mbah Moute @ center and just had an answer for anything the Jazz could put out there.

Golden State has a legit problem on their hands. Steph and KD are going to really have earn this one if they meet in the WCF.

Shout outs to your subconscious still thinking it's a if :yes:

I think if Houston losses this year we'll see Bron there be next year

Hood wasnt going resign and they got a very capable starter on a good contract.

Crowder embodies what today's league is all about. Versatile tweener who can guard all 4 positions and shoot the three. The problem with Utah is they're playing him with two bigs. Play him at the pf and go small and faster with the young speedy backcourt.

great win by the rockets. back to back in the mountain west against denver and utah. this was suppose to be a schedule loss, but they're too good to even comply.
It's just funny cuz nikkas had to go back and delete their pre-written posts in "Rockets Lost-Free Daps" thread:umad:

i was wondering why the spread was only 2 points. people really thought utah had a chance. rockets had some injuries but still...

Utah had the best defense efficiency Stat or whatever coming into that game
but they just got blew out at home by portland, injuries and the rhood trade negates that defensive stat. to me that was an easy pick
