    Wow, what a bunch of A-level talent Feigen mentions. Jeff Foster, Joel Pryzbilla, Biedrens, Oh my!

    did you expect him to play the non realistic trade game? Aka Clutchfans "Random Houston Rockets Trade Ideas - 2011-12".

    If thats the case just go there and you will be happy. If you want realism then take this reading with merit of whats really going on in the league.

    Edit: What joesr said.

    What are you expecting? Dwight Howard, Marc Gasol, DeAndre Jordan? Not happening.

    What I've thought all along. I don't think Nene is even worth 60 mil, and certaintly not 70 mil. I'm hoping for Bogut.

    If you want someone like Dwight Howard, please tell us how Morey should get him. If you want to tank, we can still do that no matter what happens in free agency.

    I guess he's been antsy to write columns, but I didn't see anything newsworthy here.

    Basically Feigan is telling the fans, whoever Morey signs come Dec. 9th, this is who Morey is planning on being Dwight's backup.

    So dont freak out when they sign Fesenko or trade for Biedrins instead of signing Nene as their "franchise center."

    So am I, but who knows what they would have to give Milwaukee to bring him here. Don't hear him mentioned much at all, but I think he lead the league in blocks with 2.6 a game last year. Solid offensively too, even after he ****ing destroyed his arm.

    And how the hell is Morey gonna get Dwight Howard?

    He's shown in the past that he can't get the "big" trade or FA Pickup so far.

    So basically Morey, and the team, is stuck in the mud.

    Nene wants to go to a contender; the Rockets aren't and he won't make us one. End of story.

    Rumors Al Jefferson and Paul Millsap are available in Utah. I have no idea how we could get a hold of Big Al but would he not be a nice pickup. I think he is better than Nene from what I have been able to watch of the two. He also averaged nearly 2 blocks a game last year. Thoughts?

    Would not mind Jeff Foster. BGREAT rebounder (7th in Rebs per minute among those actually playing meaningful minutes), has great size.

    I'd take him on a reasonable contract.

    This article is depressing, they have a small chance at Nene??? What does that say about our chances at a guy like Howard???

    Rockets are stuck, I'd like for them to stay young and go after a guy like Asik and hope he grows into a Marcin Gortat type center or Marc Gasol.
