good pick up for houston. especially for the minimum.
good point.

So they might lose Capela? What is he worth? Maybe the Spurs throw some money at him.
Not a fan of mba moute and tucker...
I think they're excellent add in a vaccuum, but with all these additions it looks like Houston might not be able to play pure DAntoni ball anymore.
Moute and Tucker......two nice perimeter defensive pieces.
The West just got better
Wasn't Mbah a Moute already in the West?
The Rockets are loading up on defenders for going against the Warriors. Meanwhile Spurs are losing some of the better defenders to Hawks and Magic.
Man, Rockets are loading up. What in the heck are the Spurs waiting so long before adding more pieces.
Unless MJ and the 90s Bulls return....no team seems to have m9ved the needle against GS
Rockets will have the Banana Boat Team + James Harden next year....?
It doesn't matter, we got Brandon Paul
What do you mean? Who is in the banana boat team? Wasn't Lebron also on the banana boat?
Spurs easily beat Rockets tho
LeBron, Melo, Paul, Wade (Banana Boat)
If Melo gets traded there it could be possible...they'd obviously take less and it could just be for a year..but just something to chew on
How is Jarnell Stokes not signed yet?
You really see the 4 "Banana Boat" members taking MASSIVE pay cuts after Harden just signed the richest extension in NBA history? Not a chance.
They could for a year...won't be long term.
I mean if they're serious about doing so and getting Melo, Paul,Harden a ring next year would be the time to do so...
It is far more likely (even though I still put it at a .001% chance) that those 4 join up with Kawhi and Pop next year in San Antonio if they're taking discounts to try to beat Golden State. Say what you will about Pop, but he has proven to be the perfect coach for aging superstars, while D'Antoni would be on the complete opposite end of that spectrum.
He's been impressive in every opportunity he's had to show his ability. It's a shame that if he was two inches taller he'd be on a roster. You'd think in the age of small ball he'd have a place.
Too many moving parts for that to happen in SA. Yes the fit may be better and obviously Pop > Pringles..
But if Melo gets traded there which imo WILL happen..only Wade/LeBron need to show up via Free Agency. And their dream scenario could become a reality for ONE year.
Spurs could start by trading LMA, Danny and Dijon for Melo and O'Quinn.
But Melo wants to play with his friends Paul and Harden...he even prefers that over playing with LeBron in Cleveland and I wonder why...
What do you mean? All four of them will be free agents next summer and the Spurs are projected to have massive cap space available (with an elite player already on the roster). I would say it's far more likely that all four of them take a discounted rate together (similar to the way LeBron, Wade, and Bosh did in Miami) as opposed to Harden, Paul, and Melo being maxed out (which is why CP3 and Melo want(ed) trades so that they can retain the option for that fifth year) and LeBron and Wade signing for the minimum. Sorry, nothing that Wade or LeBron has EVER done would lead anyone to believe that they would be willing to do that.
Regardless, it's all a moot point anyway since it's not happening with either team.
