    Damn. Surprised he would want to go back there. It's a shame to know he'll waste away in Milwaukee.

    I was really hoping we'd re-sign him. Milwaukee can offer much more than we can, though.

    Yeah I read he was really pissed they didn't even talk to him last offseason. Money fixes a lot of problems though...

    Ah well. I'm happy that he's at least sitting pretty up there.

    I'm happy Delfino is making more cash. I'm also happy he went to the Eastern Conference. It would have hurt to have him draining 3's on us when/if we play the Thunder in the playoffs.

    I am really going to miss Delfino but being able to retain Garcia is softening the blow!My assumption is that the Rockets probably could have resigned either or and chose Garcia over Delfino. I think he is more consistent on both ends of the court t and less of a streak shooter.

    Delfino is getting older and in 3 years I think he might be forgotten, I doubt hes going to be utilized correctly. Most ex rockets arnt
