Jazz - Rockets

Post by bellsduck »

Jazz trade Kevin McHale.
Rockets trade Cummings and Wood.

I needed to improve depth. Hate to give up McHale but no other way around it. I hope these two pan out.

First blockbuster of the season and I didnt see this one coming

Rockets are getting the better player (as currently constructed) for two backups so thats great for them

As for the Jazz, this seems somewhat rushed as they were not hard pressed on cap and just lacked some depth here and there (mainly a PG) which Wood does not solve immediately and you dealt McHale to a division rival to boot.

Give the Rockets a win for now, pending TC and how Cummings performs with fulltime minutes.

Done

I think it’s a good trade for both

Jazz get a little worse this year but wood had great notes so long term the jazz will be solid

I agree with this assessment.
Couldn't ever get that depth. Always told my picks were worthless and had a bad mistake during fa last year in addition to missing in fa the previous year so couldn't play catch-up. I expect to see my record drop while this pg grows.
I can afford to resign Bruno now next year too.

Cummings had such a good first TC but has fizzled out a bit. I like it for Rockets.

Understand it for both- definitely love it for the Rockets more and I wish I coulda gotten in those talks. But my bigs are pretty good so I should be OK without him. :)

I was just happy to see this deal so close to TC.

Most people are pussies about making deals right before TC.

Kudos.
