    According to sources......

    Bogut likes Fosters beer. He can't handle Shiner / Karbach in Houston.

    I mean technically he did become a Rocket. But your point still stands

    Fosters is the equivalent of drinking piss.

    I'm thinking about our incredible chemistry and not wanting to mess with it. The alt-right, to which Bogut subscribes, is a gentle term for a community in which it is safe to be a white supremacist. Think that might have an impact on locker room chemistry when most of our players are black? I do.

    This isn't me disagreeing with his politics, which I loudly and proudly do; it's about not having someone that's cool with "white power" screwing up our chemistry which is one of our greatest assets.

    Good riddance to bad rubbish.

    Funny. One never knows (behind closed doors). I wrote date of 28th on everything yesterday.
    I'm all out of whack on my dates for some reason.

    March 1st is tomorrow. So even less time to sort things out for Rockets. I'm sure management searched
    the waiver wire on Monday morning. Find us help Morey.

    Been wondering if we'd look at him. He's another 5 in our system. Bangs around and draws a ton of fouls down low. An instigator.

    All I remember is Bogut responding with an "Awful if true" (something like that) to the "news" that Hillary was running a child prostitution ring out of a pizzeria (again, something like that).

    Where do people come up with this? And why are other people so stupid as to buy in? Not to derail the thread, but....absolutely, horrifically, intergalactically stupid? That would be worse than a liberal believing the stories that Ted Cruz was having affairs (who would have him?)

    We do need what Bogut brings as a player. I still wonder about Josh Smith, three or four inches shorter but also a good passer / rebounder / shot blocker (albeit weakside); but I think that ship not only sailed but struck a reef in a storm and sank with no survivors.

    Not going to comment personally on the Alt Right crap. Here's an article questioning him about the situation for anyone interested.

    If that is all you are worried about with him, then rest easy.

    He is a hateable player when on an opponents team, but if he joins the Rockets we'll love his illegal screens etc.

    surprised we haven't seen more activity.

    At this point, Casspi is our best option.
