Rockets acquire Thomas Robinson; Morris traded to Phoenix; Patterson, Douglas, Aldrich to Kings

honeycutt for Lebron james

 

Cousins for Mozgov+3mil to Denver!

 

For those worrying about Robinson's bust potential, I'd just point out that it truly does take bigs longer to develop, Robinson is not raw like Jordan Hill, he's got a tireless work ethic, he's only 21, and he's a gifted rebounder already. He will get you double didget rebounds with starters minutes right now. That means less second-chance opportunities for opponents, and his offensive rebounding prowess means more 2nd chance opportunities for us. If he averages 10 and 10 every night while playing good defense, he'll really help us. That's probably this kid's floor, and his upside is much higher than anyone we traded away tonight.

 

Man, are you ever excited by a move the team makes?

"Don't get too excited about getting Harden, he's not a superstar"

"Asik is completely useless offensively and is being overpaid"

Have some freaking faith in our FO's ability to evaluate talent. I realize some people believe that taking a pessimistic view is being realistic, but it isn't. It's just being pessimistic. Which is fine, I guess, but it seriously gets old.

He's so good with both hands. I think we found our PF of the future. And we got him locked up for a long time. No more soft fours!

 

Haven't been excited about the Rockets for the longest time. Morey is doing a great job of transforming this team into a true contender. He is getting rid of solid guys with limited potential for high ceiling guys (TRob) and D-Mo.

To hit a home run, you need to hit for a home run. More often than not, you will strike out, but playing it safe will not get anywhere fast in the NBA.

Let's see what tomorrow brings.

 

The thing that I like about that trade with the kings is not the potential of TRob, but the addition of a mid level contract of Garcia.

Rox could now trade for a bigger contract with Garcia + fillers for teams looking for a salary dumb or a quick rebuild. Which makes it so much more interesting. Instead of the 4 for 1 trades or 4 team multiplayer trade.

For example, Eric Gordon, Granger, Aldridge and Love could be done with a Garcia + Delfino/TRob trade.

Heck even Garcia+Asik for Dwight works (although that will never happen)

 

is this why we lost to Sacramento?? Daryl you sly dog you!!!!

 

he will blossom with harden on the court, guy is tough as nails and has a jj watt Motor, i like!

 

him and Asik will cause Terror in the paint.

 

good point. that's another positive angle to the deal.

 

Many dunks, some put backs, a signature move (spin left and finish with a left lay up)... Me likey.

 

I heard a rumour we will trade him and parsons for josh smith?

no your not

exactly my point

yeah i liked also what i saw

hehehe

 

hehe thnx for the sign men !:grin::grin:you reminded me of atlas shrugged!

 

Interesting move there......let's hope Morey has worked another miracle for us.

 

Sacto is doing what the Astros have been doing reduce payroll. I never liked PPat's game, as a PF, he should have a good rebound game, but it isn't. Tonight's game showed his value to the team. I rather grow up with a true PF than a hybrid PF. And PPat is a Ravens fan, another reason to like the move.

 

A real athlete. Looks like he can compliment our run and gun style of play. Also shows potential to finish from PnRs. Good to see him handle the ball from top of the key.

Does he post moves? Can he develop a mid range shot?

 

Just saw the news of this trade. A big that plays above the rim. If we were not going to get Cousins, this is a very good consolation prize. And Garcia is a solid shooting SG too.

All for my least favorite Rockets? Pinch me.

In Morey We Trust.

 

ohh wow, I thought the only person good at steals was Lin at the Rockets, Morey not only stole, this is grand theft!

Robinson looks great!
