Yeah, Mike Connelly as well.

But I'm just kidding.

That's a given that he's going to get bought out.

Before Kobe White or even Anthony Simons come into play, Giddy, Bazunmu, Ivy are clearly above in the depth chart.

And then Trey Mann might be above those other two as well.

Not Trey Mann, sorry.

Trey Jones.

So, beyond... They have no interest in bringing back Anthony Simons next season.

They have plenty of guards, and he's a small guard.

He's never going to fit there.

So, it's not like they will keep him rotting and on the end of the bench just for bird rights.

reasons so he might that's a real scenario when he gets bought out Kobe White likely they'll likely just take whatever the best offer they can get for him he's easy enough to match salary wise and some team will give up real assets at least second round picks for him so he's not going to get bought out he's going to get traded but Anthony Simons and Mike Connolly

I think that's a real, real chance for these diamonds to get spot out.

And as I said, if one of these cards gets spot out, the Rockets are top of the line as to what these guys would be looking for in a team to sign up for.

The Rockets are a top half playoff team at the very least this season in the West.

They have the reps to give a guy like that.

and the potential for him to become a key piece if Rich Shepard falls apart for some reason or if the Rockets think they're shooting or whatever it may be.

So considering that the Rockets are a prime candidate, if one of those guys becomes available and how likely it is, given how things are shaken up, for those guys to be available, it makes even more sense to wait for the buyout market rather than spend a couple of seconds.

Because how big is the gap, really, from Kobe White to Anthony Simons, right?

Anthony Simons is the worst player, I would say.
