    The Rockets would like to use him as a trade chip but no other teams wants him for more than s minimum salary

    Such a forward thinking and logically sound decision to trade for him. I love it.

    Nobody wants him at the vet min, but if you bloat his contract to 10 mill per year then all teams would want him.

    Yeah, I understand that this appears at first glance to be one of those easy calls...he's done. But, there are extenuating circumstances which need to be factored in to fully understand the situation.(as I describe above) I realize this isn't a popular stance in some quarters, but it is what I believe to be the truth here.

    the minute he began playing house less and shump more, the rockets played better in the playoffs. that was crystal clear in the playoffs. house was scared shitless when the playoffs started. if shump was atrocious in your words, house had no business even putting on a rockets jersey to begin with then.

    man stop smoking!? House had all kind of buckets against jazz. If I remember correctly House hit a three in the first four playoff games against the Jazz.

    if three's don't impress you. House was top 3 in rebounding in basically every game of the series against Utah!

    Iman Shumpert played only what!? 15 minutes the whole series in five games versus the jazz!? I guess the coach didn't play Shumpert either because of injury, matchups, or saving his best poker chip for Golden State!? lol

    house's game was in garbage time. if you're so mesmerized by that then have fun.And no he was not top 3 in every game of the series. stop making stuff up

    i guess its a good thing he saved him vs gs then, since house sucked so bad

    House sucked in playoffs because of jitters/ nerves. He demonstrated in the regular season he could play. IS on the other hand sucked in regular season and playoffs, he had a couple good games in the warriors series but that was about it. House just needs a bit more experience. IS was just attrocious, like real bad

    i don't think he's as bad as everyone thinks he is.

    that being said, he isn't very good.... but he does add depth and i honestly trust him more than Green and even House.

    IS has proven a whole lot more than house has to this point. all people can say about house is what they hope happens. but he still pretty much is an unknown. if he sucked he sucked, doesnt matter what the reason is.

    I haven’t read all the posts between you two’s back and forth. But I believe you’re both right. They both have potential to suck and I hope we have more options than relying on one of these two for contributions.

    Kinda unrelated, but since you love the Temecula meme, you might like to know that the #1 High School basketball recruit in the nation is playing for Temecula...and his name is Mobley.

    His brother graduated last yr, as Top 20 recruit, and they are both going to USC. Gonna be alot of Temecula jokes hitting the NCAAs.

    I think House deserves a shot to see if he the capable starter that CluchFans thinks he is(not me included, but I would love to be wrong) but it sure would be nice to have a healthy Shump on the team if he doesn't. I wanna see EG back as the 6th man and have a true 3.
