    Doesn't make sense to get John Collins. I think he is friend with KPJ. I wonder he has anything to do with it.

    Collins looked like he not there mentally, and not being really part of that team(Hawks). Must have to do with all those rumors year after year. Hes a 20-10 when given the mins. They are not giving him many mins. Looking at his stats when he got his contract, if he can bring that type of production.

    This could be valued if he remolds his old form. There is not many good free agents out there for now. Rockets could use his defense. Change of Scenery sometimes changes things. Can rockets give him a fulltime role at PF?

    Anyone interested in Collins would have to have resurrecting his career in mind.
    Its a gamble. One that could tie you up for 4 more years if it goes wrong.
    A bargain for a 20/10 guy if it works out.

    I just don't see the Rockets needing to take this kind of gamble at this juncture of their rebuild.

    I wouldn’t give much asset up for dude. Gordon Garuba Tyty and the Brooklyn pick this year. Basically none of our productive prospects. I’d include kpj if they wanted him.

    Pretty much, make sure this is a buy low opportunity if you’re Stone.
