    So another 2 Rockets signed for Anta !!

    Rick Adelman and Bonzi Wells.

    A press conference was held in Toyota Centre December 15, 2007.

    Bonzi Wells will join Steve Francis and Luis Scola as the 3 Musketeers of Anta Team; it will be the same kind of shoe endorsement contracts as those for Steve Francis and Luis Scola, and they will act as assistant coaches for basketball training camps/clinics that Anta and CBA (Chinese Basketball Association) will host in Houston for young and upcoming Chinese youngsters.

    Rick Adelman is also appointed as the Head Coach for the Anta sponsored CBA training camps.

    CBA Commissioner Li Yuanwei was there in Toyota Centre to preside over the signing ceremony.

    Adelman hates smiling.

    Probably a good thing considering the record...

    Not sure what to think about this. Is Adelman being "persuaded" to do this by Rocket management?

    If I were Morey, when signing free agents I would hint at extra millions from shoe deals from Chinese shoe companies

    Can't believe Clutch approved that account name, RickSuck.

    Be consistent Clutch. I registered BaldyGundy and it was denied. ;) Just kidding.

    Does this mean Rick won't be fired in the neat future? That's the only thing I want to know.

    Nice. Our coach is signing deals instead of drawing up better plays for his putrid offense.

    Man, I miss JVG.
