Rockets going hard after Jimmy

There were thoughts that Minny would challenge us for years in the NW, now they are the doormats or the least of our concern.

Depends on what they get back for Butler. They were a really good team last year before he got hurt, and could still be good depending on how things work out. The NW is probably the best division in the NBA right now. Whoever wins it will likely be a little more lucky health wise than the rest.
 
Do we have to bring up Hayward in every thread? Boston is not going to trade Gordon Hayward because nobody wants a 3rd or 4th option at $30+ per year. Maybe, just maybe, some team takes Hayward if they get the Sacramento pick, the Memphis pick, and somebody like Rozier or Brown. But that ain't gonna happen especially as a 3rd or 4th team involving Butler, Houston, Minny, etc.

Houston might fall off the cliff this year. Capella isn't in a contract year. Paul isn't in a contract year. Harden got his MVP. PJ Tucker is a fighter but he's not enough to inspire everybody every night. If Houston doesn't get Butler, it could end up being a bad year in Houston. They might have to fight to even make the playoffs.

BINGO, stock on heimwoo is all-time low. He needs to raise his stock before teams even consider him....not even the dumbest of GMs would go for him right now.
 
TL;DR - eventually we could see places like LA, GS, Miami, NY, Boston just become ring mills, while the rest are there to maybe sell some merchandise and make sure the TV revenue keeps the ring mills running.
Team owners are happy as they get their money from revenue sharing regardless, players are happy (duh), 80% of the viewer base are happy with as you described. Thus, enjoy the ride, nothing will change
 
The rest of the league is playing "smart shot ball" now. The Rockets will inevitably play better yet they won't be anywhere near as good record wise as they were last year.
If they do in fact trade for Butler they will be better bit not good enough and the rumored 4 first round picks would be as brutal as what happened to Brooklyn.

We should let up on CJ. Look at the poor guy. He's getting kind of old, so that might explain some of the posts he makes. In fact, I found a recent picture of him. Really, he's not a bad guy just losing his teeth:
