LaMelo to Rockets for Amen Thompson


SUCCESS

Who would say no? Straight up players only. Picks will be tricky.

For Charlotte, I mean where are you really going with LaMelo Ball and Miles Bridges? Since you're stuck in rebuilding, why not reset the build a little bit contract-wise and acquire a top tier talent in Amen. FVV and Steven Adams are there primarily as salary fillers but they can still product on the court and can be culture setters for a team that doesn't have one. If you can build a team of long athletic players in Amen, Brandon Miller, Salaun, Mark Williams - I think you're shooters away from sniffing the play-offs.

For the Rockets, acquiring an all-star prior to his peak should be something attractive. Fox, Booker, Durant ain't walking through that door. Not to mention, this trade keeps all your other younger players (Jabari Smith, Jalen Green, Sheppard, Eason, Whitmore) and all your picks. So if they ever come through that door, you're still ready and you now have LaMelo Ball in the fold.
