pick and roll is the foundation of all offense in the nba right now and the single most common action. john stockton became a legend due to his pick and roll prowess. parker/manu were pick and roll monsters. its what chris paul does.
Good for him. Suspect he’ll be on the Suns next season where he’ll have more chances

He's finding his footing in the league. No shame in that.
My guess is that he'll bounce around a bit and will end up as a valuable reserve on a good team, it just won't be HOU.
Agreed. I think Phoenix would be smart to get their three picks back plus Sheppard, Whitmore, and matching salary for Booker this summer. Especially if they can get the Rockets to throw Jabari in. Reed's gonna be a good player though.
i know you keep pushing this, but it isn't happening, at least not this year
also, rockets would need to move FVV to trade for either of durant/booker anyway, so sheppard is somebody they'd probably keep anyway. i think jalen green, cam whitmore, jabari smith would be on the table though
You don't think it would be smart to trade for their future back? Booker's not gonna lead them anywhere on his own other than the lottery.
what would i do vs what will phoenix do are different questions
they want to rebuild around booker one more time. the paul/bridges/ayton team was good. the durant/beal team was not. i think they'll give it one more go with booker and get what they can for KD from houston. maybe not all their picks back, but some.
It's march 4th and no trades can happen. They'd be fools to say anything but he's untouchable right now. This summer there's a good chance that reality sets in.
OK but you called me out for saying it would be smart to do. I really don't think they're going to get much for Durant, and especially not from Houston who can either get fat off the Phoenix lottery picks or get Booker, both of which are preferable to Durant for them.
Rockets would idiots to give up anywhere near that much for 37 year old Durant.
I’d laugh my ass off if all this talk and bravado coming from Phoenix and the pick we have from them turns into Flagg with a magical jump to 1.
nah, i was disagreeing that this is something that has a chance of occurring this summer
With how much a dumpster fire Phoenix has been since the trade deadline they're gonna be gifting Houston a top 10 pick this year and then be even worse when they get lowballed for Durant if they don't act quick before the draft. They have to be thinking about it. I don't care if they're publicly calling Booker untouchable.
ill do a sig/avatar bet over booker not getting traded during the offseason
Not going that far. I'm not going to have a Trump/Elon sig/avatar for a year just because Ishbia stays stubborn
My sense is if/when Booker to the Rockets happens, Green (poor man's Booker who'd have no role with the genuine article around and pseudo star who'd be an easy sell to casuals) will be involved along with probably Smith Jr.

Could do like the one I made Deadly rock, with a Quanell X avatar and a Godvine sig. He made lemonade though when he got us to all troll Godvines prayer requests.
No matter what they get for Durant, it won’t be as much as they could get back for Booker.
I have no idea why booker is such a hot commodity. He’s a front running loud mouth who has shown time and again he’s empty calories. Great on offense, until the pressure is on and he starts to suck. Doesn’t matter though, because he gives back on the other end what he gives on offense.
Do the Rockets want Booker?
I would not give back Phoenix those picks for Booker. I'd much rather keep them. I don't think Booker can lead the Suns anywhere. Do you guys think the Suns can be a playoff team if they can retool around Booker? He didn't show anything until CP3 got there. Maybe he's matured enough now to lead a team, but he was empty calories like Ambchang said before they got CP3 and those role players around him.
What do you think Djohn2008? Would you want to give Phoenix back all those picks for Booker? I guess you're more of a win now team so developing draft picks might not be what the Rockets want, but I'd rather use those picks and then trade off guys like Green to get more picks.
Thought he was pretty great in the 21 Finals.
obviously
was also very good defensively in the olympics
