I’ve spent the day, and evening sequestered in a quiet, dark, cool space, trying to find my center.
No, that’s not true. I’ve spend most of the day having a nice time with friends and family. Now I must face the dread and terror of The Rockets Free Agent Signings and Trades.
I’ve covered the Fred Van Vleet, aka Velvleeta, deal here. Upon learning more, I’m now happy with the deal, as it appears that the Rockets will have a team option in the third year of the contract. So the announcement was to get the years and money out there for the agent, and the player, and to perhaps offer a single finger salute to the Raptors management.
