    Just got a text saying Shane was on the Scott Van Pelt show and he said he would ideally like to come back to Houston. Has house that he does not plan on selling.

    Can anyone confirm?



    We made a list! Josh Smith.. Shane Battier... whose next Raja Bell?!

    He can take his intangibles to another team -- I'd rather let Budinger start.

    For Vet Min I would do it, good stabilizing and leadership from him. As long as he doesn't eat 30 mpg away from MM, Bud and TWill.

    Why did he put his house on the market if he doesn’t plan on selling it?

    Anyway, I love Shane, but that ship has sailed, plus we have no room for him. He’ll have other suitors he can get a ring with.

    I would gladly welcome Shane back home. There would have to be some type of trade in order for that to happen though.

    Would love him back but not sure if we have room considering we are rebuilding and want to give Bud, Morris, and TWill lots of playing time.

    It's time to move on,we need much better players than him. Let him go to a contender.

    Until proven otherwise, there is no TWill. There is only Squid.

    Stephan bondy says nets want to get a sf thru trade. Maybe we can trade bud to the nets for our pick back or a pair of second rounders and then sign batman.

    Bud would be better served in a package trade to Phillie for Iggy.

    I'd rather see what Morris can do and pursue a big than chase iggy. Lot of people seem to be high on Morris. Where would he get burn if we got iggy. We are set 1-4: it's a 5 we need.

    And a deal under 3m per or forget it. We are solid at sf. We need a big!

    As soon as Battier rejoins the team, any time Marcus Morris may have seen on the court would decrease dramatically.

    As much as I love Battier, it's time to move on. Go get your ring Shane.

    What is with this Iggy obsession? The guy has a shaky shot, and below avg. handle. Not a guy I would be interested in, if I was the Rockets.

    Love Battier but we have 16 people on our roster atm, not really possible.
