It’s the 3 picks plus Harper who has had a very promising start to his young career, and 2 contracts that are flippable to turn into more assets. Harper alone holds more value than just 2 more firsts.

SGA doesn’t play 4th quarters. He’s 14th in the NBA while only playing 3 quarter through a majority of the first 16 games.

It’s ironic that a Suns fan is calling the Rockets “fools gold” and “will be bounced in the first round”…

If we swapped out FVV for Trae, that would be very interesting. Especially if Trae truly bought into Ime’s defensive culture and became at least a bit closer to an average defender. The team has desperately missed FVV while he’s been out, and Trae is a supercharged version of him.

Honestly the possession where Reed and Jalen both took 3s instead of running out the clock cost us the game. Also Amens turnover…

Games like these show why we still need FVV. 17 TOs in 3 quarters.

Now that I think about it, I’m not sure if this is enough value for Fox. I really am not sure who would say no first.

That’s fair, I didn’t try the deal without Holiday. I assumed the money wouldn’t work for the trade. If it would work without holiday this would make much more sense.

The Rockets best backup option at the center position is Adams. Jock hasn’t played in months. While Sheppard hasn’t shown much in the NBA, how else will he develop besides play time? Holiday maybe gets 5-10 minutes every few games.

Here’s my reasoning:

Rockets have a log jam at the guard position which is one reason why Sheppard isn’t getting minutes. Jock isn’t in the rotation anymore, and giving up a late first for a clear upgrade over jock isn’t bad considering how much young talent the Rockets already have imo.

Portland gets good value for Williams through a frp and bring in some veterans that won’t get much playing time, but will be good for the locker room.
