    I remember when I was about to bust thinking about a harden/bev/llull/Lawson combo. Now we have harden/bev/Gordon/Lou and I'm busting all over the place #steadybusting

    I don't see why we can't quintuple down with a 5 guard lineup - Harden/Beverley/Williams/Gordon/Llull

    Break the matrix! :D

    Careful. That's borderline blasphemy.

    The most interesting bit is how he apparently "found out" about the trade to Houston, which I remember is not like it was reported here that he was given options by the Lakers (Magic) and chose us or was that his agent who knew the teams interested and asked Lou which team he should try to get him to?

    We are getting a 19.9 PER out of our "seventh man" of the year. 24-4-4 PER 36.

    One of my favorite Daryl Morey trades of all time. Hired assassin. Exciting time to be a Rocket fan.

    I'm a little worried about Lou Will in the playoffs. He's basically another version of Kevin Martin in my eyes, but he's certainly an upgrade over Brewer.

    Hmm. I don't really see the Kevin Martin comparison to be honest, aside from their lack of defense.

    Lou can legitimately run the PG and create his own shot as well as create for others.

    They play VERY alike. From over exaggerating drawing of foul attempts, to the left leaning 3pt shot. They actually are very similar

    So he draws fouls and shoots fadeway threes?

    Lou has a floater that K-Mart doesn't have
    Lou can dish the ball
    Lou is a PG
    Lou is quicker
    Lou Has a better handle.
