We went from a first class organization, to being bought by a bad owner, to to becoming a third rate one.

Yeah, that's why I put the "almost" in my statement. He definitely hasn't been nearly as meddlesome as most of us feared. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y'all seem to really know how to discount defense in your equation plus Murray really isn't that good of a point guard or scorer. This pairing is what it is and we saw it on full display when Jalen Brown roasted them in the playoffs Because in the NBA, great offense is ( 2x ) more important than great defense. Murray did not have a bad offensive season at all. He had a month+ stretch where he struggled with his shot, after scoring 41 in a game. But he averaged 20 ppg - 5 rebs - 6 asst on 46% FG shooting. Do you know how many players averaged 20 ppg - 5 rebs - 6 assists in the NBA last season? Eight. And I don't see any defensive superlatives on this list. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarsV8 Posted July 1, 2023 Report Share Posted July 1, 2023 Okay, so things becoming more clear.- FVV third year now a TO - huge win- Speculation is now Tate, Mills and Christopher is whats going to Memphis to get Brooks his money via SnT- Landale is likely Room Exception.This means Rockets still have 20+ million cap space. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This means Dillon will have a great locker room influence on them. Get ready for the dances.

The thing that jumps out to me is games played. Everyone moans and groans about potentially trading for an injury prone star but DJM is extremely reliable to play big minutes night in and out. Sometimes, being “undersized” can be an advantage when it comes to wear and tear. Just saying 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
