    You can do all that within the system.

    Nah. Pass. Even if younger, I wouldn’t want that dirty POS on the team.

    He helped the Lakers in their win against us. If we can get rid of Onuaku I would get him for the playoffs. You gotta think in those series against San Antonio. I would be a little more confident against their big men if I look to the bench and see Bogut. Plus, he can really help Clint to be a tougher player. Is the type of player a team like Houston must have at the end of the bench.

    Interesting choice, another injury prone, nearly washed up player who can squeeze in a useful season or two.

    If we need to pay tax to get him, NO.

    If he will not cost us anything other than lunch money AND ASSUMING he doesn't care about playing at the end of the bench, then YES.

    But I doubt he will choose the Rox.

    Can someone please enlighten me as to why everyone thinks Bogut is racist? I can't find anything making the assertion that he is.

    Everybody is calling everybody racist, it is becoming meaningless. In the U.S. the "real" racists are a small percentage, but most people seem to see them behind every bush.

    Bogut is considered racist because he followed an alt right account on twitter and posted something about Hilary Clinton and the pizzagate thing.

    It is not that he has ever said anything racist or acted in any way racist. Just some internet tough guys who dont like him trying to find an excuse to make him a legit bad guy.

    If possible, get him! Still sets the best illegal screen in the league.

    Nope. Just our standards are going up, and this is a good thing if you are a Houstonian. It means you might have a better shot at getting a good job and getting ahead in society.



    Bogut clearly doesn't meet the standards of being a Houston Rocket.

    MDA is a big boy- he can figure out how to extract benefits from big men. Did he listen when the geniuses said Harden and Paul wouldn't work?

    Look what GS does. They can find a way to extract benefits from Swaggy P and McGee for krist sakes.

    He may only be able to play 15 minutes a game but that’s good enough.

    We badly need a rim protector. Nene sucks defensively and Capela lacks size, can be easily pushed around in the paint.

    This is exactly what I'm getting behind. All I see is some ridiculous article pinning Bogut to the alt-right. Is this what Clutchfans is? A liberal cesspool?

    Bogut is chemistry killer and doesn't want to run the floor, why would MDA change system to accommodate an injury prone douche bag? Bogut has already told Rockets to frick off twice, what makes you think it will be different this time, especially now that he's a year older and regressed as a player?

    He is prettier than Bogut at least. I wouldn’t enjoy having to look at Bogut’s ugly whiny mug all season.

    Just trying to think outside the cube. I'm desperate for deep playoff success. *** it, I'm desperate fora c'ship and lucking into things like G Green and whatever else especially when said players are unemployed and have something to prove.

    He can help this team. We run the same offense as the Warriors. He will fit in like a glove.
