Henderson is the choice?

Not bad.

I looked there too.

Yep, Summerlin is too damn expensive. Like being in CA.

LOL.

I wanted North Las Vegas, the wife nixed that quickly.

LOL.

kinda like Eric Gordon...

Nah, he can still play....at 34. But, he's injury prone.

If he were 29 or even 30 they might be able to get a 1st, but not now.

So Sharpe did say something to Brooks first. Which means he was the instigator. You said Sharpe did nothing wrong. Then he went to social media and called out Brooks, Ja and Ja's father. He told all three of them- you don't want these problems. Gonna tag you, what he said is in a different thread.

Not exactly.

Takes two to tango.

What Sharpe said initially was normal and acceptable fan heckling. It wasn’t anything too personal.

If it was me or you who said it, Brooks probably ignores the comment and it is over.

Brooks’ FU was out of line as was everything everyone else said and did after.

The FU was the first aggressive and inappropriate comment.

He's basically an expiring contract (non-guaranteed in 23/24), ridiculous that they're asking a 1st still.

So I guess the elephant in the room is if Dame and Bev went at it.....who you taking?

Bev ain't a chump but I think Dame manhandles him pretty easily.

That's reasonable. What really got my attention was his comments afterwards. When he basically called out Brooks, Ja and Ja's dad and said- you don't want these problems. That was unnecessary.

Irving has 86 points in 2 games but he isn't a #1 option.

LOL.

LOL.

Never been about his ability to produce stats.

It is all about his ability to lead a winning team.

And no, he is not a #1

Dame.

Unless Bev uses his hair as a razor and cuts him.

If anyone gives a first of any kind for Gordon they should be relegated to the G league

Philly offered one last year.

But, it was the same one they were trying to give away in any deal for Thybulle.

They didn’t want the cap hold.

In that case, giving up a pick is fine.

LOL.

He’s not.

You aren’t winning with him as your #1 guy.

Come on, Dude.

Its not just about skill.

That was a mistake By Houston imo

Also would’ve had to take Danny green…who is exactly what hou needed, even while injured

Consummate pro’s pro

You also could’ve made moves and moved up in theory, although my guess is Eason was their guy the whole way.

Maybe they take a stash…but still worth it vs not getting a first now

Did not mention Adam”s because HE DIDNT WANT THOSE PROBLEMS.

I would never be crazy enough to think Bev would let it be a fair fight

Yeah, I agree.

Could have just been a fuck you to Morey and Harden.

But, still bad business.

Dude, Bev bites.

You can totally look at him and tell if you got him down, he’s chomping down on one of your body parts.
