    Can't say it's nothing until we see what we spend the capspace on. I'm sure the team isn't planning on just sitting on it.

    No Bosh. Overpaid and hamstrung by Parsons' deal. Still no backup centre, no PG and questions at the 4. Plus NO got better. Not so sure that Houston pick will be lower than NO's.

    To all the decent Rockets fans on CF, really bad luck on not getting Bosh. That's got to really hurt.

    What if our 1st draft pick is actually worth something this year?
    I hope its super protected. We are currently one big injury away from being a 14th pic team

    I don't care how badly our plan failed today with bosh, today was a win in my book. Getting rid of Lin is a great day for clutchfans.


    (got nothing against Jeremy as a person, but I do have an issue with all that comes with him)

    Lin was pretty much our only halfway decent bench guy left. Idk if I like this trade now that Bosh punked us.

    We need to find someone who can impact the game off the bench, and quick.

    This is a common theme on Clutchfans and is frankly stupid. It's this kind of attitude keeps Houston a 2nd tier franchise. The kid has played hard, played well and contributed in many ways to the team's goal of winning.

    Jeremy reminds me of a band, who has one or two big hit singles on their first album....and that carries them to a long career...though nothing they do after is even close to that first record.

    Why troll you are not a Lin fan just a troll I have had a lot of fun rooting for the Rockets and talked with a lot of posters who were good and a few rude ones but overall rocket fans are no different from most fan bases just want to win.
