    SMH, i cant believe some of our fans

    Are these guys expecting D-Mo to come in his first year and average 20 ppg. SMH

    No rookie is that good


    You have to give these young players time to develop... smh

    Double head shake.. that sounds like some pretty serious disapproval.


    Don't trade Morris. Trade Bud.

    Unless its to move up, I think we gotta see what Morris can do as a Rocket.

    If we trade lowry, then I like the idea of having him backup dragic and develop his game.

    Why do you say he sucks?

    How many minutes did it take Parsons?
    Morris will continue for the next few seasons trying to figure out what position he wants to play. Too many other better players for us to try and get.

    It's not what position he wants to play, it's what position the Rockets want him to play. I don't think he's had any say in that matter, whatsoever. I could be completely wrong though.

    I like Budinger but this is probably the stronger trade. Morris maybe a first round pick, but Chase is proven to be a offensive player at the SF spot and I believe his contract is almost up. I'd rather keep Budinger but with Parsons emerging as the starting SF for defensive purposes, this may net us a better value, especially to a team that could use young offense, Chicago or Boston anyone?

    how many minutes you expect to see Morris play this season? behind our forwards Parsons/Bud/PP/Scola/Donut and maybe even other rookies/FAs?

    with Dragic a unrestricted FA and Lowry wants out, a PG is much needed to even just sit on bench.

    the facts are: 1.) Rockets likes Teaque 2.) Teaque not worth a #16 and could be had in the 20s 3.) we don't need Morris and we might still trade him for a late 1st rd. pick now (not saying he's proved bust already but his trade value right now is just about a late 1st rd pick)

    Teague grew on me.. he's a good leader and capable of doing what needs to be done to win bet that scoring or deferring. I don't know that I like him with the Rockets though due to style of play... but depending on what happens with our PG situation, he'd be nice to get.

    Morris was trying to sell himself as a SF even before the draft.

    I'm not saying he should've gotten more minutes, just saying I think we should see what he can do when he's on the court before trading him, unless it's to move up in the draft or in a package for an allstar

    Problem is that Morris was supposedly "NBA ready"..

    He was? I thought I remember the rockets saying they didn't see him contributing much in his first season after drafting him. I could be wrong though.

    Actually I expect D-Mo to come in and average 11 pts, 6 rebounds, 1 block and 2.3 assists in 17 minutes a game. Mostly against 2nd teamers. And no you cannot hold me to it.
