    I think we can all see the need for a third piece here. We do have a really good team. They have gone so much farther then anyone outside of Houston ever expected them to go but we need an additional piece.

    1. First I am trading T. Jones for what I can get for him. He has talent but he cannot put it all together and I don't think he ever will. I feel like what he lacks as a player you cannot coach. I am then going all out for L. Aldridge. I also think KJ will end up being very good but I fear that McHale is to scared to give rookies enough playing time. That

    2. As second option I am going all out for a young PG that can hit the three ball and has at least average Defense. I don't feel like our PG of the future is on our team. While I liked Cannan I think KJ has more upside potential as a player so I was ok with that trade.

    3. We need a sharp shooter. A really % three point shooter.

    I just so many things that we need. All that being said this series is not over for me. Not after what this team has shown me but we have to go after more pieces if we want to remain a true contender.

    What positions do you think we need ?

    I agree...

    That we need a PG but the questions becomes who ? I think we need a proven talent now. I don't feel like we have time to develop a rookie.

    They need a PG. They've need a PG with or without Beverley. (Remember: Beverley is GARBAGE thread)

    Good news: Morey finds PGs like nothing.
    Bad news: Hasn't kept one yet (maybe because see: news, good)

    Alston, Brooks, Lowry, Dragic, Lin, Beverley, . . . . oh ****, Terry & Prigioni, now we're really in a pickle!

    Point Guard.

    I would trade D-Mo, Picks etc to grab the 3rd pick of the draft and take D'Angelo Russell.

    PG by a country mile.

    D-mo was really putting it all to together to be a perfect compliment at the 4 to Dwight and Harden. Now that we have Capela ready to take over at the 5 when Dwight is out, D-mo won't be forced over.

    We need help at BOTH, Point Guard and Power Forward. And can we stop standing around and MOVE w/out the ball????? Golden State is a great team with a #GOAT in Stephen Curry. Admit it, we got whooped.

    Did you really just type GOAT next to Curry. Man you are drinking the ESPN red kool aid. Sure he is good but GOAT ?? You are flat out crazy!

    LOL! People are really serious about this too. Getting a wife, kid, etc. isn't a guarantee to help maturity issues. Anyway pg is the number need although PF is still not as steady as it needs to be but Dmo can help that postion once he is healthy.
