    As a combo guard in a 3 guard rotation I think Llull could be a nice addition. I hope it happens.

    Harden doesnt thats the main issue. He isn't accustomed to moving without the ball. The bigs cant shoot from mid or 3 . Morey has work to do

    I would say KJ Mcdaniel fits better than Ariza. Don't forget D Antoni's offense calls for a athletic slasher like a Shawn Marion.

    Guys like Bazemore and Batum look like natural fits in an MDA offense. They play fast, are two way players and can shoot.

    Trade for Nerlens Noel and TJ McConnell (as a throw-in--would be a solid D'Antoni backup PG). What can we give Philly? No idea.. maybe they want some Ariza?

    We hire D'Antoni, and now Jeremy Lin is a topic again?

    I still care about defense, even if our owner and GM don't.

    How horrible of them to give him such a fat contract well over his value at the time.

    his defense was actually pretty decent last year according to Steve Clifford. That said, I think we've all moved on from the Lin days. He would be a fool to come back here, as would the Rockets for bringing him back

    Is all of the Jeremy Lin talk on here... for real???? Wtf, just W T F?!?!?!?!!!!!!!!!! Wouldn't this be like the 3rd/4th time or whatever w/ the team, hahah. I'm sure Les is going to pay him too. Man, just ****ty... Maybe Morey can try to get him back by photo shopping him.... wait I mean re-using the Melo one just using Lin instead, Lol


    If the Rockets really get Lin for crazy money (Lin is okay for some showings but he's a bench player and not worth huge cap)... I'll probably have to actually take a break from the team. Hopefully offseason can redeem this D'Antoni thing. But if Les is any indicator he goes against logic.

    Hahha, so.. Cyberx or whoever is going to post "Lin lining up for reunion with Linsanity coach and the Rockets" pretty soon I bet.

    GD, Rockets... why can't Les go **** up another franchise??

    Matrix could also shoot the 3 and most importantly could play 3 positions. KJ is not anywhere near Marion's skill set.

    Even these guys would benefit from the Great Dantoni

    Trade Ariza, Bev, Brewer

    Sign Conley, Horford, Batum

    draft two pgs in the 2nd round.
