    Perimeter defense (Buckner, George, Ager) has been the theme of the Mavericks offseason. I'm extremely impressed.

    Not LLE, it's veteran's minimum. That's a steal for Dallas. Antoher physical defender, plus spot up shooter. One injured season ruins this mans career. He was a very servicable role player, one at that price I'd love to see in Houston.

    Dallas makes solid moves. I almost envy their management.

    I was never tha impressed with George back in the championship days, now after his injury he's sorta a shell of his former self, a much larger shell

    Exactly. If only the Rockets had those brains. Mavericks have made GREAT strides this offseason, adding loads of depth--Croshere, Johnson,Ager, now George.

    I know for real, he'd be an excellent backup to mcgrady and kick Bowen off the team.

    Hilarious. They pick up a legit starting NBA player (if you don't think he's starter quality, he's atleast a legit backup) while our front office is screwing around. The rich get richer, and some would say, the rich are rich for a reason.

    Damn. I like George. He has talent, I think the Lakers were a poor fit for him. He could excel in Dal. Man... Ive always wanted that guy.

    Rockets aren't finished with free agency yet. The sign that they have finished with FA is when they sign JLIII.

    Yeah, 6.3 points and 3.9 rebounds how can we afford to miss out on that, man Mark Cuban is a genius...slurp slurp slurp...the rockets management is r****ded..blah blah blah We need L.A.'s number 6 forward if we hope to compete next year


    Most team sites the majority of the trolls come from other team's fans, in Houston we do things different.

    I don't view small forward as a huge need for us. Unless, of course, JVG actually decides to play Battier large minutes at the 4.

    hooroo,do you think that the Rockets will complete their roster if they get JL3 or do you think they will look to add someone else via a trade?

    Laozi, you need to find out the meaning of troll before coming out with that post. What do you expect here? Of course some of us will be jealous of what other teams have, it is normal that we think the best thing is the thing that we don't have.

    The 'blah blah blah' part in any post I see is so old and it is not funny, it becomes a manifestation of lousy post.

    i feel very sad and dissapointed being a Rockets fan.
    I don't know what to expect from them in the upcoming season.

    If you hated Stro, you will hate him more if he is in Rocket's uniform. The guy has even lower bball IQ than Stro.

    I never hated Stro. Van Gundy should have played him alongside Yao more often. Sadly... Stro never fit into the Rockets system.:D
