    Bring back nene use the non gaurentee contracts for a PF and then trade Anderson and a 1st round pick for melo.

    Cp3
    Harden
    Ariza
    Melo
    Capela
    Gordon
    Tucker
    11m PF
    Nene
    Qi
    Troy Williams
    Cameron Oliver

    That team can give golden state a run for there money

    Feel like he's gotten old, and not really that great a defender anymore.

    Lotta money for a backup considering we are a supposed contender and players should be making sacrifices to sign with us.

    Basically a 6'5 Patrick Beverley. To me there's nothing to not like about this.

    This is a good signing for the Rockets. Tucker brings physical toughness on defense and adequate 3-point shooting. He will fit in.

    The price was right. Teams usually have to pay an extra year or two to close these types of deals.

    This is what I fear most. But if he plays like he's played in the past for PHX, I'm cool with the pickup... he's approaching that age where if you're known for solid defense, you begin to slide... we're starting to see that with Ariza.

    Nice! Idk if it's he's body type but it kind of reminds me of what Royce White COULD HAVE BEEN.

    Ariza isn't going anywhere my man, plus adding pj tucker doesn't mean he can start at the sf position, having both at the same time is great rotation at the sf, both are good defenders and can shoot the 3, we need to add melo and we are set.

    Ultra hustle, very physical, and extremely tough. He's not a scorer by any stretch of the imagination but he can knock down the three pointer, especially in the corner.

    Think Shane Battier his last four years as a Rocket... except he's not quite the amazing defender Battier was (he is a good defender though).

    Stop with this nonsense. We got Chris f'ing Paul, this free agency wasn't garbage.

    No he's not a 3 and D player. At this point he's a hustle player.
