    I wish him the best. Seems like a nice and good guy. But I hope that this trade turns out really well for the Rockets.

    if he ever learns to not fear that the basketball is on fire, like bullard once said, he will be a nice power forward. rebounds are your friends.

    I'm glad PPatt gets to play with his former teammates in Sac, but I really hope the Kings management is replaced soon or the Kings go to Seattle. Sacramento is a horrible situation for players.

    Going to miss PPatt. Best wishes to him.

    Class...Always liked his personality, but just didnt like him showing up once in a while...When he did play with a chip on his shoulder...he played like a boss...I hope that his career can yield a more consistent production than what he did here in Houston...PPat has grown a lot since being here and Im glad that his mid range jumper has gotten almost automatic...

    He is was the best example of a tweener 3/4...Didnt have handles like Morris, but had solid range...Best of luck in your career PPat...

    So wait, someone had a patterson jersey?

    But seriously, I liked his attitude and work ethic, if he starts rebounding he will be a solid player

    Classy response for sure, and I know being dealt out of nowhere and to Sac of all places must suck, but I'm not upset he's gone. Retire as a Rocket? No thanks. A PF is supposed to get rebounds and play D. He did neither. I wish him well though.

    Ppat we'll miss you. I still remember your Q&A.

    It's all right. You're going to Seattle soon.

    To win a championship, we need one of our young PFs to go supernova. All three are 21 or so. So there's a chance they'll do just that-- DMo, I'm looking at you! But, if they don't become at least near-all-star caliber, chances are they'll get traded just like PPat and MM got traded.

    I'm very pleased that Morey is so aggressive.
