    I can't believe 47% of rockets fans think giving a 28 yr old guy who only plays on one side of the ball $20 million every year for the next four years (20% of our cap) is a good idea.

    This is all on Le$, signing D'Antoni was a mistake, and this is another reason why.

    Codman said something like "Les is still running the show" yesterday, i bet he was talking about **** like this.

    Without the cap bump this year....this is like a 14M a year deal. Plus he'll give us more than what Dwight ever gave us last year production wise. Less money than Dwight and more production.

    Some people just want to watch the team burn. We just essentially signed what Dirk Nowitzki will be like in 5 years for 20 mil a season. It's just sad.

    Yeah I tend to look at it that way. It's not a bargain but it could have been worse. Meh...whatever is my feeling

    You're confusing "this forum" with "fans in general". This forum influences itself one way or the other. Most casual fans outside of this forum probably don't even know who he is, and honestly doubt they care.

    I LIKE IT!!!

    I've been calling for it the past month!

    First sign Ryan Anderson to $$$$!

    Then sign Seth Curry to $$$!

    Then resign DMO! ALL OFFENSE BABY!

    Curry
    Harden
    Ariza
    Anderson
    DMO

    Games with scores of 155-154 here we come!

    Dispicable. A role player.... A freakin off the bench role player,smh. Idk why but he reminds me of C. Fry... Which is not necessarily a bad thing but it's not 20mil good either. I hope trades are in the works because so far this is embarrassing one year removed from the WCF. Somebody's head will roll and it should be two heads but we all know why it won't be.

    Potentially a 20 pt scorer while addressing our biggest need of shooting. I mean who do you actually think is a better fit for this offense that could REALISTICALLY come at this price? Marvin Williams doesn't even come close to Ryan Anderson on the offensive side of the ball. And his defensive ability does not warrant an offer greater than Anderson's considering he is a HORRIBLE fit for the Rockets offense.

    Eric Gordon - 170

    Just as a point of reference

    The biggest need on the team was defense, so we go out and pay someone 20 mil who is a Beasley/Jones level defender and then go after Eric Gordon....

    Let the dumpster fire burn.

    Are we going to play any defense at all? This team has lost the plot. I'm over it

    You are acting as if this is your first time on the GARM. So of these same people thinks Dmo deserves the max to.

    Plus every team is over paying for these FA's. They have to spend the money.

    The biggest laugh goes to Memphis. Conley $30 million a year and Parson $23.5 million per year.
