The John Wall situation

[Regular_P]

I don't understand why they aren't letting Wall play. Green and Porter are both out.

It can't be the vet angle because Eric Gordon is still in the lineup and playing extremely well.

It can't be the tanking angle because they've been pretty decent the past few weeks.

 

[Jermio]

It's just dumb fukkery at this point. The "develop the youngins" angle is horseshyt at this point, acting like they got Steph Curry or some shyt in the cut.

 

[GoldenGlove]

He obviously wants to play but there isn’t a ideal situation for both sides

This makes no sense

Yea cause you can’t trade him without him playing

Stop playing stupid. Nobody trading for that contract. It’s already been discussed. Even Simmons says nobody is ever trading for that contract until it’s an expiring.

theres plenty of teams Wall can help but none of them want his help at that price.


The best scenario I heard was him goin to New Otleans to help out Zion but even Pels don’t want. That contract. He’s in the same boat as Kemba and Bledsoe. His play on the court is simply not worth 45 million.

Then maybe... Try and field a competitive team regardless? You know, like how CLE is doing after the drama with Kevin Love over the last few seasons.

The shyt is dumb.

it doesn’t make sense to you becaue you dont understand or know what you’re talking about but im glad you brought that up because Kevin love is doing what the rockets asked Wall to do. Comes off the bench in a lesser role to get his minutes but he has said no. And that’s all I’m going to say about it because the situation has been broken down countless times but y’all jsut want to remain ignorant.


But let me propose a trade for Wall to y’all team and all y’all hit the

Start a 3 guard lineup. It's 2021 and you want to tank, what's the issue?

One way to guaranteed he doesn’t get traded is by benching him, so is that the plan next year as well? He’s coming off a Achilles, he has to play at some point

The number one priority is development. If we jsut wanted to solely tank, we could’ve kept Starting Theis alongside Wood

Bruh read the situation. Hosuton doesn’t care about trading Wall. They’re willing to eat the contract.


Porter Jr is on a rookie contract. We need to see if he’s the pg of the future. One thing we(rockets fans who watched last season noticed) is that KPj and Wall don’t play well together. Wall doesn’t or isn’t interested in playing off the ball. He wants the ball in his hand when he’s in the court because he believes he’s the best creator in the floor. Which is why they wanted him to come off the bench.

 

[Blackrogue]

He's making too much money to be traded for considering his recent injury history. And one side would be giving up too much free money in a buy out considering his contract value. If he plays you slow down your players development and minutes and don't get to see what you have. But he'd be a good vet to learn from so it's possible he speeds them up. But you also run the risk of him inflating team wins, making lotto odds worse while also possibly reinjuring him making trading him even more unfathomable

We’ll see how long this last, this only works for another year if wall really doesn’t give a fuk about playing. If he’s starts complaining the situation might change

Houston isn’t willing to eat that contract by choice and even you know that

He would have been moved by now already if someone was willing to take it or Wall was willing to give up the bread to make a buyout happen. Neither of those things are happening so they’re stuck with his contract for now.

they doing it now so it makes no sense, eating that contract like capt crunch. They should do a buyout
Or trade him now and pay him the remaining part of his contract for the current year. Next year would be expiring for whatever team that trades for him. It’s ridiculous to keep paying him and not playing him.
