[Iko] Looking at the free agent market, if I’m the Rockets (and looking at the more realistic route), Kentavious Caldwell-Pope and Bruce Brown are circled on my big board.

I don’t know if we’re declining Brown’s option though. Iko is a Rockets’ beat writer, so it’s fair for him to not know this — but if they are to acquire Brown I don’t think it will be via FA (at least based on the reporting we’ve been hearing from Doug and Grange)

Raptors: Ima stop you right there and also yeah, it’s not happening
With the way they went about prying away Fred (They needed to free up cap space to sign him and Brooks but opted for a salary dump instead of a sign and trade), the Raptors likely don’t have any goodwill to work with the Rockets anytime soon – let alone for them to get Bruce in free agency when the Raptors are likely picking up his option on or before draft night

Sorry Iko but Bruce is not going to be a free agent

Sure, the contract of Steven Adams and Cam Whitmore should do the trick.

Bruce Brown for Brooks and a very good asset to take on that contract could be a great trade for both ends.
Still hoping for Wiggins or DeAndre Hunter as the “toxic contract” but if we can get a better additional with Brooks, sign me up.
