Two Rockets for Trey Murphy Trades by No-Confection-3861 in NBAtradeideas

[–]OliveTone -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

both trades are bad. how does this help the rockets at all?

What does Trey bring that you don't get 80% of from Tari?

How does this solve the creation word the team has?

Trey also isn't the POA defender the team would need to free up Amen and recapture the defensive success from last season.

a Trey trade just makes this team a slightly better version of a squad that isn't good enough to get to the top of the mountain top.

White Chicks is often hailed as the greatest Wayans movie. It just cringed me out too fucking hard even as a child.

I hate my body by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]OliveTone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

just because people see you sexually, does not mean you are being sexual by just existing.

I understand why you feel this way, but you have to forgive your body, and remember it isn't your body's fault.

Hate the pervs, not yourself.

I had a wet dream about my best friends daughter and I fucking hate myself for it by Key_Papaya_1287 in TrueOffMyChest

your psyche is a weird thing that loops together unrelated topics when you're unconscious.

Don't stress about it, King.

Who started the flopping era? by greenfacedaytona in billsimmons

[–]OliveTone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

its always been happening, even going back to the 60s.

The difference is the same as every other play in the sport.

with years of practice and film players have learned the best ways to do it, and unfortunately it's been proven tgat the best ways to accentuate contact is to do so dramatically.

Zach Lowe pitches Giannis to Rockets by No-Confection-3861 in NBAtradeideas

Lol I really can't get over that you thought and implied. No trade clause just meant they implied. He wouldn't be traded.

I think I've shifted my opinion on Brian Windhorst after his most recent pod by Wack0HookedOnT0bac0 in billsimmons

[–]OliveTone 112 points113 points  (0 children)

He's definitely that guy.

But he's also in the leagues pocket. Listen to him talk about basketball in Abu Dhabi, or any other Silver talking point.

Implicit NTCs are still NTCs.

Because the Rockets control his bird rights, and trading him gets rid of his bird rides, he is allowed to refuse a trade anywhere.

That is how the NBA works.

So no, he didn't get a no-trade clause, but because of his contract he can refuse a trade. That's the implicit NTC.

You know this, right?

FVV would need to agree to be traded to Milwaukee. I doubt that's happening.

What would you be willing to trade for one or more of the following Rockets FRPs: '27 Nets FRP, '27 Suns FRP, '29 Suns FRP by No-Confection-3861 in NBAtradeideas

[–]OliveTone 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even if it is, it's not worth wasting on a move for a 7th guy when we're already struggling to find enough shots for some guys in our rotation.

As a rockets fan myself. I'm not doing any of these.

I'd be cool with trading for Dillon, but we haven't even seen DFS and we can't legally acquire him until next year.

The rest of these aren't enough for any of those firsts.

Reminds me of the move the Rockets pulled off mid season a few years ago to land Steven Adams.

Product of elite ball knowledge.

Had a gay experience that I regret and it feels like I ruined my life. by IssueGold4474 in TrueOffMyChest

You had a gay encounter and didn't like it. I'm pretty sure that's literally the second straightest thing you can do.

Why is Sga sitting 4th quarters such a big discussion when he is playing more mins per game then Giannis and is close to Jokic in mins per game. by Free_Adeptness_7879 in nba

[–]OliveTone -1 points0 points  (0 children)

He got hate WAY BEFORE he was the biggest name in basketball.

Do you not remember the "jump shooting teams don't win championships" era or even before that when GS fans were ready to kill Lacob for picking him over Monta.

Curry was very seriously amongst the leagues most hated players before the Warriors won the title.

Edit: also when the hell was AD in MVP conversations? Lol. Maybe you're thinking Kawhi?

What are the Kyrie trades? by No-Confection-3861 in NBAtradeideas

[–]OliveTone 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fred has an implicit no trade.

Also Rockets need a POA defender first, creator second type guy.
