I believe K.J. Martin is now the second longest-tenured Rocket with the trade of David Nwaba. Only Martin, Eric Gordon, and Jae’Sean Tate remain from Stephen Silas’ first training camp as Rockets head coach – 9:12 PM

Monty Williams yesterday was asked by @Duane Rankin about his preferred timeframe on a Crowder deal. Said he’s not worried about it much but ideally you’d like to get someone in before opening night. Mentioned Johnson having a bigger role and Saric, Craig and Lee can play some 4. – 2:21 PM

If you’re looking for a Miami Heat fix, @Ira Winderman schools me on whether the Heat would put Max Strus in a Jae Crowder trade and much more our weekly RedRecover.com Inside the Paint show.

Cam Johnson in the starting lineup is exactly what the Suns need and he’s ready for it but they are also going to miss Jae Crowder a whole lot.

The Cavaliers have at least fleeting interest in Jae Crowder, as they are a small forward away from being really special. Unless, of course, one of these six players makes a name for himself, @The Athletic theathletic.com/3635454/2022/0… – 8:09 AM

More on this storyline
Crowder and the Suns have “mutually agreed” the veteran forward won’t attend training camp, but Williams is hopeful they can put a conclusion to this before the Oct. 19 season opener against Dallas at Footprint Center. “We’ve done a decent job of acclimating guys into the program and that’s a credit to the coaches, but also the players that help guys along once we get new people in here,” Williams continued. “I’m not so much worried about the timeline. Ideally, you’d like to get someone in here before opening night, but I like the group we have.” -via Arizona Republic / September 28, 2022
If, however, you prefer to make the case that the Cavs are one player away from serious championship contention, the evidence is at the small forward spot. It’s why Cleveland is said to have interest in trading for Jae Crowder from the Suns, who is available and is a proven 3-and-D big body who could bang against the Kevin Durants and Jimmy Butlers and Jayson Tatums of the East. Whether the Cavs make an offer, or if the Suns accept what Cleveland would send back, is another matter. In the meantime, Bickerstaff and his staff will use training camp and the preseason to decide who among the six he mentioned is the best fit to start next to the stars. -via The Athletic / September 28, 2022
