In hindsight, should Morey have pulled the trigger on that Rondo trade?

Discussion in 'Houston Rockets: Game Action & Roster Moves' started by Swishh, May 29, 2014.

Do you wish Morey had included Parsons in a deal for Rondo?

  1. YES - one of the best PG's in the league, and could have led to a Finals appearance.

    Did you pay attention to the series? Almost every shot Harden took was contested. Your best scorer should not be responsible for distributing AND be responsible for putting up 30 plus points a night. That's too much. If we had a legit playmaking PG, those contested shots become wide open, guys like TJ, Parson get better shots, and the offense becomes more fluid. Watching Harden ISO dribble 85% of the game will do nothing but wear him out. The reason he was successful at this in OKC, is because he had 2 very great players spacing the floor. Two different teams


    He is at times selfish. Your in denial. Anybody who's followed the Rockets knows this. The players had team meetings soley about Harden trusting his teammates, and passing the ball. This is common knowledge

    Now that I know we struck out on all FA's this summer, YES, definitely should have pulled the trigger IMO.

    Then we would have had about $7-10 mil left to go after Deng..
