    Not bad for a former Super Star to be your worst defensive player. Offensively we could blow out many.

    I am hoping opposing teams will be saying the same.

    Great point. Betting against CP3 as a leader is a fool’s bet. He will be steering the Rockets and dropping a fat deuce on doubters again this year.

    A player can still be made a restricted free agent after playing on the Required Tender. It’s no different than any other one-year deal for a non-first round pick rookie. Teams can extend a QO and make the guy a restricted free agent. The Rockets made KJ restricted before signing him to his multi-year deal.

    Split it between Vince Carter and D Wade. Have 3 HOF's come of the bench. No way to stop that.

    So are you telling me people were adamant about having Luc on the Rockets before CP3 came here with him? Are you telling me he wasn't better because of Harden and CP3? What am I not understanding of it? He is a player that hurt the same shoulder twice and never showed us he was the same after. What did he do to deserve more than the Rockets offered? Why shouldn't they be concerned about his injury and how it can affect his ability to perform? What exactly am I confused about? Is he the new Mr. Intangibles or something? If anybody was that guy it was Ariza but we all know he's not worth 15 MM on this team.

    Most people last year that knew anything , knew luc was a nice depth move. If you follow basketball, you knew he was a solid defender. The whole gameplan last offseason was to matchup vs GS and switch everything. We replaced Ariza with Melo and Hopefully Melton is the real deal. We replaced Luc with Ennis. We got better offensively. We will still switch everything. Our defense probably takes a minor hit. Offense should be even better.
