I'm not from Houston but I've heard he's a fan favorite, so why so many of you hate him? B/c of his hair?
There's no team option on Moochie's contract according to Patricia's site. It goes through to 2007 As for Vin Baker, he signed a 2 year contract in 2004 with a player option for 2005, so he may not come off the books this offseason after all.
so after next season will we have some cap space for other players... mooch will be off the books, spoon, wesley, vin... maloney
you know what? i think it was just the shock of seeing moochie and vin baker's names at first. now that i think about the salaries and allthat, this trade isn't too bad. we get mo off the books, and in two years we'll have some wiggle room. yeah we don't get to see another 1st rounder, AGAIN, but it'll be nice to finally see the rockets CUT moochie.. they are going to cut him right?
Well, at least everybody can reset their wallpapers now: http://www.clutchfans.net/images/wallpaper/2003rockets37.jpg
And the Spurs made out like bandits adding another decent BIG body. Knicks just have a whole roster of PFs now. WTF
If both contracts expire next year , then I guess its an OK trade. Vin Baker can actually play pretty well, as long as he controls his "off the court" problems .
