Don't the Rockets have to spend a bunch of money to hit the salary floor? Overpaying guys on 2 year deals seems like a good way to do that without long term cap impact or impacting the tank
Dumb teams do dumb things. These GM's make these signings like Grant in Detroit, Bojan in Detroit, because they're dumb. Nothing more. Unless they get out after that first year and get something they end up getting nothing in return anyway lol. If Detroit traded Grant after his first year they could have gotten a ton. Then he's expiring, numbers go way down, and boom, late 1st and space. Yay.

Yeah but another pick and roll guard on a team where their best young talent is basically that? Great fit Rox, lol. VanVleet isn't even a true PG, he's straight up pnr guy, just like Porter Jr., TyTy, Thompson, and Green. The more pick and roll the better, but that's going to crush the chances of some young guys to grow because we're not even sure if Porter Jr. and Green are true combo's yet.
