    Preliminary roster counts too? Oh boi, I guess those players are more important than Team US that played at the Olympics.

    my mistake

    I guess CP3 is the Vice President of Basketball Ops then and Bobby Brown is the Director of Player Relations

    We need team USA melo, not NYK melo.
    The first is one of the best strech fours and is an efficient and unstoppable scoring machine that fits in with other premier players.

    James Harden GM - Confirmed
    Chris Paul - Head of Recruiting Confirmed

    Considering Maury has so much time to be on every sports media out there

    that's what we'd be getting

    This is Harden's franchise, and both James and CP3 are way better than Melo.

    Melo won't come here and be able to take 20 shots every night and ISO all day. He'll have no choice but to fall in line, just like on Team USA.

    Yeah I saw that. I was just posting the tweet to show that the Rockets indeed were going after fringe Team USA players.

    It's kind of like when Morey had a hard-on for all the players from the '09 draft. His new obsession is team USA.

    He's really not. He just has a chubby face, like the other poster mentioned

    Melo and Deron Williams as our 4th guard.

    He's a 4th guard to get you through the season. I doubt he would be in the playoff rotation.

    People think this may be a joke...but seriously...the reason is clear. These players develop some kind of relationship playing for team USA together. It's like a basketball clique of the most elite players.

    If you get one then another one may come to play with that other one.
