    He may suck. But you have league pass and watch a lot of Bucks basketball and you don't know who this guy is?

    Sounds suspicious. But whatever. Who cares.

    I like the trade for depth #1 and #2 a fresh start for a kid who has potential to grow into the position.

    Not to beat the dead horse, but of course Harden liked him. Beasley's defense made Harden's look better.

    But in truth, Beasley could shoot. Or is that, "would" shoot? Because if you gave him the rock, it was going toward the basket next. Beasley was a double yellow line in the road. No passing allowed.

    I trust Morey's/MDA's evaluation of PG's.

    I haven't seen much of Ennis, but he looked like a guy who could get to the rim/play PNR and was an above avg passer in college. Negatives were he wasn't an above avg outside shooter and lacked strength/size to be a good defender. Hopefully this has improved while he's been in the NBA.

    It's a great trade by any means, Beasley can get us some points, but whenever he get the ball, the whole team stopped and start watching, there is a reason although he scores okay, but team suffers badly when he is on the court, he doesn't help us win now, and may not help us later. With Tyler Ennis, he at least has a chance to pan out.

    Let's face it, last season was terribly frustrating after going to the WCF. Beas came in at the end and gave us something positive to root for. He scored and rebounded at a more consistent clip then anyone but Harden. Morey sold high and got a 2014 1st rounder who is only 22 and have some skills and potential. Yeah, I liked Beas, but as Morey's world turns there are likely other moves that will make us forget this one.

    Dont like. It's like every few steps we go forward... we decide to take a giant leap back.

    People need to relax.

    The Rockets will have a log jam at PF, especially if they are considering re-signing DMO (making Beasley redundant). The Rockets have a hole at the PG spot, and they basically sold high to get a young PG who may/may not end up being good.

    Let's be honest, if the Rockets' season will make or break depending on whether they have Michael Beasley on their roster, they may as well just trade Harden now and start over now. However, that is not the case, so I'm positive on the change. Morey has had a very good history of finding good and effective PGs from nothing (Brooks, Dragic, Lowry, Beverley), so I think he deserves some faith from the fans.

    Beasley reminds me of Duncan in his prime but I truly believe that Ennis could be the next Jordan. Give this deal some time, folks.

    Ennis actually started to show some potential towards the end of last season but got to remember, Kidd put the ball in the Alphabets hands in the second half of the season

    When trading with the Bucks, I would rather have Steve Novak.

    Ehhh... not wild about it... guess they figure we added enough offensive weapons that Beas could be dealt. I thought Beas had good production on a bargain contract with something to prove... motivated...
    Figured DMo would be the pf to go (via a sign n trade)... let's be honest, after all the ups n downs n his agent complaining... is it really gonna work out long term with DMo...?

    You are aware that guys that play in China after they played in the NBA don't typically have much value, right? We picked him up for cash and got PG depth out of that cash.

    Get the **** back in here with that bullshit, this might end up being a good trade.

    We all know the new version is bullshit. JK, I was just bullshitting and you know I was bullshitting because you can read me over using the word bullshit now.


    I've been watching his college and pro highlights. He's got more than he's shown. Hopefully he'll show what he's got this year.

    If theres one thing Dantoni is good at, its turning nonathletic floor manager point guards that cant shoot into double-double machines. (see: Raymond Felton, freaking Chris Duhon and Kendall Marshall.)

    I'm guessing DMO is about to be locked in. Otherwise.... Anyway, we need another PG. Not overstruck on giving minutes to Prig. Personally would've liked to have kept Nick Johnson over Ennis, but hey whatever. Will wait and see.
