    Yea also I liked him here before but after I saw coach Nick video about the best and worst teams on the NBA he torched Mo. he says that once he gets the ball that ball will never come back. That he always shoots the ball no matter what. That wouldn’t be great here. I liked his 3 point shots but yea he is slow and he take a lot of contested jumpers. His defense is bad too and he doesn’t switch well either.

    Brandan and Jo would be great.

    Let’s make a new “ It’s Happening thread “

    Just need him to block shots and get rebounds and everything will be just fine.

    No need to foam prematurely; Wright's going to be getting his lobs from Markel Brown.

    If you take a look back his post history in the past 2 years most of the time he has been terribly wrong.

    "Sources: Rockets waiting to see if Lakers waive Brook Lopez"
    No way to prove

    "Sources: Rockets pushing for a RYNO trade before the deadline"
    Stating the Obvious

    "Sources: Andrew Bogut BADLY wants to be a Rocket"
    No way to prove

    "Sources: Houston Rockets VERY interested in Nick Young"
    Wrong

    "Sources: Moreys Summer Goal? Bring CP3+Hayward"
    Morey didn't even meet with Hayward.

    "Sources: Dmo to sign with Jazz if Favors misses extended time"
    Wrong

    "Sources: Dwight to Warriors Likely"
    Epic thread, terribly wrong.

    "Sources: Vogel: Contacted by Morey - Morey trying to move fast"
    "Sources: Rockets reached out to Lionel Hollins"

    Turned out Morey didn't interview them.

    "Sources: Jvg not interested in Rockets because of relationship with owner"
    Though JVG had interest in reunion, two sides never sat down to talk. — Adrian Wojnarowski (@WojVerticalNBA) May 18, 2016

    "Sources: Rockets plan to resign Dwight this summer - NOT to MAX deal"
    Wrong

    I love this pickup. It gives me the feelings that guys WANT to be bought out to come to Htown.

    I think Nene still the backup C but we improved our backup to the backup center tremendously. Bye bye Black.

    Yep, and i mean, there's a reason if the Warriors didn't keep him even if he was cheap.

    I believe they have a spot available. So no one will go but Tarik will definitely see less time.

    Man, I know NBA is business. But Rockets better DO NOT release Black for opening the spot for JJ. It would be second time for Rockets to release Black already. The team already got some pretty bad reputation on treating the players as assets. It will only make it worse.

    Batch...... Shut the fuq up.... Your mindless b****ing and bantering does this board, not a damn thing.

    You.... Of all people? Want to talk about credentials? You don't even have any, even as a competent 5yr old poster on here.

    Black is 6'8 with average length and average athleticism playing center. Wright is monstrously long and gives us rim protection when Capella sits.

    Wright is a huge upgrade over black.

    Releasing black does nothing for rep.

    Black has 55 games of chemistry built up with the team and practicing our D .

    You're probably right , but I tend to give the nod to guys who have already been here .

    If Joe Johnson is available, Tarik may be gone.

    It is kind of sad how people get to spew out horses**t these days on social media and aren’t held accountable for it when they’re often wrong. The worst is someone like Broussard who gets access to a very large platform and just so obviously makes things up. I always remember him for saying Dwight was considering changing his mind and staying in LA (when Dwight was on the plane and Broussard had no way of knowing). And it seems he’s getting more and more opportunities since then.
