Carmelo Anthony ‘Counting On’ Knicks To Trade Him To Rockets — NBA Rumors

The decision for GM Daryl Morey? Can anyone topple the Dubs? “I’m excited to be a part of it”.

“I don’t think anybody’s ever seen anything like this before”, Harden said. Their best season together came in 2014-15 when injuries forced Howard to miss one-half of the regular season schedule.

They’d look to unload those contracts to take on players Houston (Ryan Anderson, Trevor Ariza) to make the cap work. They want threes or layups. Earlier this year, we showed you the 10 most expensive houses sold in Houston in 2016.

You need superstar talent to win in the NBA, but that talent also needs chemistry and a cohesive offensive system to really thrive.

Last spring, the Texas franchise dropped to the semifinals of the Western Conference against the San Antonio Spurs.

The Rockets press release states that they will have live entertainment, door prizes, dollar hot dogs and nachos. Join the House of Houston team! In other words, they committed.

Trade talks between the Knicks and Rockets have died down over the past couple of days after a trade sending Anthony to Houston was reportedly “at the two yard line”.

First, it’s important to consider Anthony’s current team.

The caveat that many do, and should, get hung up on is that Harden is a more seamless fit as the primary ball handler in D’Antoni’s offense.

Fans started lining up to see Paul hours in advance. And he apparently has his heart set on one team in particular. It won’t be an entirely natural shift. “Of course it wasn’t how we wanted it to end. but that’s what life is about”.

If Anthony could be convinced to accept a trade to the Blazers, could Portland’s front office make it happen?
