    In light of all these "Sexy Photos" threads recently, I think the real question here is whether or not we're going to miss Ariza's unmentionables...

    Yes we are going to miss him! I really hope it isn't goodbye! Man got 15 million from phoenix and would have been crazy to not take it. I really hope we find a way to get him back this season before the playoffs! Part of me is really hoping things don't work out so we can swing a trade for him back before the deadline!

    Ariza had not one, but two chances with Houston. Never delivered. There was nothing to squeeze here. All out of juice.

    For 15 mil, he is not that full of intangibles ... if he gets cut at the deadline I would love to have him back at a discount

    But obviously Ariza adds value to any team he is on, however at this stage he will be best utilized in the 18-24 mpg range

    but if the refs called the game fair and thus rockets win vs the best team in history?

    everybody would say the stats and 0-12 dont matter or 'the defense is what matters' and ariza would be a hero

    great point
    but my point was here the narrative changed drastically because of the refs not because of the performance of the player

    We talking about grown men & proven players. Do you really think CP & Harden & Melo & Tucker & EG will miss Trevors leadership lol? They love him for sure but they are dogs themselfs.

    Just bring in James Johnson now so we will get even more respect from other teams. Im sure Tucker with Johnson and Nene on the bench would be enough for anybody to not think about bully ball with us. Carmelos thick ass ain't coward himself

    what i meant is we don't need more leadership because those players can carry themselfs. but we need more bully presence and thats why id like to see James Johnson

    Ariza was borderline washed. Get over yourselves.

    We won't miss him at all. That's just reality.

    Yeah...that's the only excuse people bring up for the rigged ass game. You can clearly see whenever the rockets were getting close, the refs deep-throat the whistle every time. They aint letting the Rockets winning those 2 games needed.
